I'm curious from a legal perspective how this is allowed. RCT was my favorite franchise, and I loved this game.

Why do the original files need to be installed? That too I am curious of.

The original files are needed because they can't legally copy and distribute those. So they wrote their own, independently developed code (legal) that uses the original images etc that you, the user, obtained legally and installed.
