+ generally - only dislike is the scheduler, which is one of the most horrible design decisions ppl could have done. for eaxmple, imagine you have stations A, B, C in a line (A---B---C) and next to B is a tunnel (longer than B station) which would allow trains to to from A to C directly without passing through B station. because the tunnel section is longer than the station itself, the scheduler forces your trains to "pass" through B and there is no way to disable that feature - aside from deleting any tracks leading to B (so the only choice from A to C is actually taking the tunnel) and after the schedule is set, build the tracks to B again. and you need to do that for every single train which is going from A to C directly. (and if you think you can just take the scheduler scheduling through B and ignore the "pass through B" when setting the trains routes - bad idea, because the train will not stop at C because it had not passed through B prior) this problem has also been reported to the devs numerous times, is around for many many months already and isn't going to be fixed. if you dislike annoyances like that, don't buy the game(!) if you don't care about annoyances like that, check if the game actually suits you

Once you get into it and understand how things work then it becomes a good game and a complex game,good for brain training and different maps equals different challenges a good buy and Recommended

Feb. 2025

I enjoy the game... But it definitely has a steep learning curve, and the way skills are both described and implemented could be improved. I like it but it's definitely a little rough around the edges, and could be better.

Sept. 2024

A fantastic game with deep learning curve Train Automation is prefect and satisfying Recommend watching YouTube videos to help understand concepts and controls Got my first world record in my entire life, which makes me love this game more (^ Endless Hamburg)
