ROUTE TYCOON — Build Your Minibus Empire
From a single dolmus in the streets of Istanbul to a global transit dynasty — Route Tycoon is a hand-crafted idle tycoon experience where every tap matters and every decision shapes your empire.
THE JOURNEY
Start as a neighborhood operator running one humble route. Tap to dispatch your minibus, pick up passengers, and earn your first lira. Reinvest, upgrade your bus, hire drivers to keep things rolling while you're away. Then expand: unlock new routes, master your home city, and prepare for the world.
FIVE EPIC CITIES
ISTANBUL — Where it all begins. Mosques, the Bosphorus, the magic of the old city.
PARIS — Eiffel views and elegant boulevards across the Seine.
ROME — Colosseum routes through ancient cobblestones.
TOKYO — Neon lights and bullet-train precision.
NEW YORK — The final frontier. Yellow taxis and skyscrapers.
Each city brings its own architecture, weather, soundtrack, and economic challenges.
DEEP GAMEPLAY
- 8 routes per city, each with unique scenes
- 8 bus tiers from rusty minibus to luxury coach
- Dynamic weather system: sunny, rainy, snowy, foggy. Each affects income and VIP chance.
- Hire drivers who keep your routes earning even when you're offline
- VIP passenger events: tap fast to catch high-value riders
- Premium paint themes for every bus

DESIGNED FOR YOUR TIME
Route Tycoon respects your schedule. Play actively for the thrill of the boost button. Or check in once a day and let your empire run itself, up to 8 hours of offline earnings every time you return.
A LOVE LETTER TO THE DOLMUS
Route Tycoon is a tribute to Turkey's iconic minibus culture, rebuilt in five cities around the world. Every silhouette, every horn, every license plate, hand-crafted by a single developer at Hest Studios.
No bloat. No paywalls blocking progression. No ads in the middle of your game, just optional rewarded ads for bonuses. Just the pure, satisfying loop of building something from nothing.
