March 2025
Railbound is a lovely and relaxing train puzzle game. The game's super chill, but surprisingly challenging. Let's explore the ups and downs of the game (+, +/-, -, ?): + The puzzles are executed perfectly. Solving these puzzles feels so good! Satisfaction guaranteed! + The game's graphical choice is just perfect. The smooth and soft style fits the game like a glove. + The game is fairly easy for the most part, but it can get really challenging at times*. + Much like Tetris or Puyo Puyo, this game's a real treat for the brain. + I love the picture rewards. It's just pure happiness with this game 24/7. +/- The OST is good for the game, but it's not particularly memorable. Fine for the game thou! +/- *The difficulty goes up and down whenever it feels like it. Moving to the next stage/world doesn't guarantee that the challenge level increases. Sometimes, it's the opposite. +/- It's sometimes easy to forget you have the opportunity (in some stages) to place gates. It might be just me, but the gate symbol placement/color somehow blends in too perfectly. - <3 was a nice cherry on top, but I expected more from a secret stage . And you only get one anyway... - You only get a single game mode. There's a lot of unrealized potential here! - There's no real reason to replay this again. ? I want more. Please, add more stages and features to the next entry! Railbound is a great train puzzle brainteaser, but it makes the player want more. It's a great first step though and I'd love to see more of this in the future. Choo-choo! 8/10.

A great little brain teaser with 12 levels plus a secret one. There are hints in the accessibility area to guide you. There is something calming about watching a train go from A to B. The complexity in the tracks increase and made my brain melt many times. A charming little game to pop in and out of. Very cute graphics and suitable for all ages. I was having trouble popping the last achievement, but a secret level was cleverly hidden away and I finally got it. Yay! 8/10

Three questions: -Do you like trains? -Do you like challenging puzzles? -Do you like cute artwork with dog train conductors as the main protagonists? If you said yes, you should definitely try this game. If no, well have a good day then (...but you're missing out)

This is a fun game with a cute art style and deceptively hard puzzles on later levels. I like the game, but I think my kids are better at it than me. I got stuck on one level around the mid-game, but then my son picked it up and beat the remaining levels.

Railbound was an absolute joy to play. As someone who loves solving puzzles, I found its challenges both engaging and extremely satisfying. What really stood out to me, though, was the game’s charm - beautifully crafted with cozy visuals and a kindhearted story that gently unfolds as you progress. There’s something so calming about piecing together tracks while enjoying the cheerful soundtrack and whimsical art. For me, Railbound was the perfect escape: a relaxing yet rewarding experience that I didn’t want to end. If you love puzzles or just need a bit of joy in your day, I can’t recommend it enough!
