March 2026

Out of all similar tycoon games this game has prime aesthetic, it's quite jarring to see 1880s coalfogged London depicted so bright as long as you ignore the dead trees The game nailed the Industry part - not many can claim hundred different products to make and somewhat simple hub-and-spoke logistics with the warehouse. Now the bad part and why this is a bare 'Yes' is the transport part is legitimately awful. Rail is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ useless, Air is too expensive and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ slow, Riverine is unusable in most maps. The worst part is you are at mercy of town store expansion - planning to make an agroindustry? Too bad the next town expansion stores accepts only oil products and you will be stuck on one town since the idiots thought that it would be swell to limit you to one region unless you pay quadruple your starting money. And if you enable AI, ♥♥♥♥ you buy out AI before we let you sell here compadre. So is it good? At least it functions well as something you run in background while doing anything else. Buy it on sale.

It is a decent game. The economics are a little weak as you make most of the money from lower tier goods and never really need to produce higher ones except specifically for the end game goal.

A really great Transport-Tycoon-Style game. The controls are nice and clean, the graphics are nice, it runs more than well enough on my decade old rig, and the gameplay has fun depth without feeling too cluttered. Tip, don't worry about trying to do it all, try to specialize into a specific handful of industries on your first play through, and set the dispatch and/or upkeep costs to 50% in the difficulty so you don't feel too worried about perfecting your efficiency as you learn everything. I'm excited to try out the sequel, whose negative reviews mostly seem to be about early release bugs that will all be ironed out soon enough I'd guess given this game runs *very* well. All together, not just a fun game for people who have already played Transport Tycoon, but also a great game to get into the genre for people who haven't!

awesome game Do you like SimCity games? Do you like games where transportation needs to be done and industries need to be set up? then, This is the game for you... You setup industries, setup warehouses, setup transportation from your industries, earn $$$$$ money..

June 2025

If you like to make your own company with taking risks and following up with those. This is your game. Factorio -.2 you don't have the problems you would normally have to deal with. Honestly it's a very chill industrial builder. I've played 11 runs and honestly, even when I fail; It gave, the experience for you to do better. Have a beer and try it out. I thought it was worth the squeeze.
