April 2026
It’s a cozy puzzle game where you become a railway engineer to make sure all the train cars connect in the right order without crashing into each other. The game starts off easy and relaxed, but it gradually gets harder as you progress. Each level takes a bit of testing, experimenting, and questionable decision-making, and you’ll probably undo your tracks more times than you care to admit. I personally love this game because it really makes you slow down and think. You can’t just rush through it, you have to actually plan, test ideas, and sometimes completely rethink your whole approach when things go wrong in the funniest way possible.

Beautiful puzzle game. Great sound and graphic design. Watch out: after the first half of the game, the puzzles get very challenging - you need to plan forward and visualize levels to complete them - I would compare the effort to playing chess.

Railbound is a nice and cozy puzzle game. Build railtracks (limited number) to get your wagons to the locomotive. It challenges your brain. It starts easy but with progress difficulty increases and new elements will be introduced. This game has also a level editor so you can make your own puzzles and share them with the Steam community in the workshop.
