Sept. 2025

I like this type of games and this game live up to its promise. I would have liked to see the same situation every time I start a level, and less randomness, and no surprise endings ("Hey, great work, but we need whisky too, right now, or you loose an hour of planning). That said, I enjoy the game and its graphics. I like that it is not overly easy to finish a level.

I would say if you like trains and city building then you may like this game , it dose take time to get the game moving but sometimes that the relax and just let it run .

July 2025

The economics are very strange. Your railroad doesn't charge fees for transport. It buys the products (including passengers) and then sells them when they are delivered. The amount of money made on such transactions is absurdly high and the only real restrictions are that you start with insufficient money & borrowing is absurdly expensive. Sometimes trains go off to stations that are not on their route. The items available to be picked-up or in demand to be delivered change and that can mean that trains stay in a station unable to unload or load. It isn't obvious when this has happened, but can be impossible to solve if there is no where else that demands the cargo. It can also cause severe delays that cause something to run out and fail the challenge. Another funny thing is that industry is located in the middle of nowhere, not near the raw materials & not near the cities. It is as if they have been placed in the worst locations so that there can be long railroad lines needed to connect them. Also your railroad is often headquartered in a tiny location that makes no sense. Not near a city and not near any exploitable demand/supply. Nevertheless I have played it 100 hours so far, and will probably continue until I have completed all the challenges. This is just the introductory part of the game.

June 2025

I bought it on sale, and decided to not bother with the 20+ DLCs until I checked out more. It scratches an itch, but it becomes clear very quickly that "resource balancing" isn't necessary. Raw resources spawn near infinitely, processing factories are just as fast, and even cities barely "fill up" on their needed items. You make too much money transporting mail and passengers. Hiring two employees that reduce wages by 50% and 70% actually stack so you pay 15% original, instead of 300/month they cost like 45/month. Campaign Mission 7 introduces competitor, but again it comes down to quickly expanding and exploiting the same unguarded features explained above. Still, the first 6 missions was a fun 60 hours, so I gotta recommend it for the value. (But I'm not buying any DLCs)

May 2025

It’s fine-to-good. If you’re experiencing a logistics management craving, or having a ‘tism flare-up like I was, this will scratch the itch pretty good. I was hooked on it for about 20 or 30 hours but ultimately stopped before finishing the campaign because it just got a bit too repetitive. It can seem a little complicated at first, but it’s actually pretty simple and won’t really challenge you. Just casual ‘tism fun.
