It’s a great game and what I love is that it is different than other train sims out there. This game is definitely one of a kind. Also each play is different. What I mean by this is that this game is very forgiving. I have seen some games that if you run out of money or gas etc. you lose the game. I have been playing since beta (I have seen pictures of the alpha)and I can definitely say that the alpha&beta stages of the game are beautiful because that we have seen a lot in this game and, remember back to when the upgrades and the engines/cabooses were on the same screen! That was a long time back! Anyway, I also wanted to talk about the bugs as well. One of them is if you activate the secret (spoilers) full throttle than open up the edit sceeen the train will stay down instead of going up like it’s supposed to. Next if you grab 2 train cars with 2 fingers they will overlay each other and when you release them one of them will stay in place. Please fix these. Also it needs the repair and cleaning mechanics from pc as well. Adding this would definitely add to the realism already in the game.P.S. Please update the video in the App Store!

The game is neat and can be entertaining if a number of bugs is resolved. Not in order of importance, 1) notifications that the train arrived, while the train has just left a station. Consequently, no notifications when the train actually arrives, so I miss all waypoints. 2) Little transparency as to how to earn money. When I started, every time I logged there were credits coming. Then at some point the bank suddenly dried out and now I can’t even afford the whatchacallit machine to get new cars. 3) What is the deal with the car weight? My train is always 10-30% over, and continuous improvement of weight doesn’t seem to have any impact whatsoever. 4) Got a bonus mission to clear snowmen from the tracks. Having played for a couple weeks now, not a single snowman to be seen. 5) Just a side note, is it supposed to inform some action that passengers say “jerk” and some such? I don’t see any functionality to interact with the passengers or improve their morale other then adding food and game cars. 6) If removing obstacles is an important part of the game, it should not be taking several minutes of watching the screen to get one.All I currently do is check in at destination station to trade goods and advance the mission. I was hoping to have some interaction while the train is running, but it’s just landscape watching and nothing is happening.

This is a good game I just have a couple problems with it. My fist problem with it is that it is a HUGE battery drainer. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve played this game, and then have my phone die because of the game. (I personally think it’s because of the background. If there was a low power mode for the game, I would have that thing on 24/7. This really does turn me off from playing the game. Another problem I have with the game is that you either have to be actively playing the game or close the app completely. The game takes no time to start and loud. I just find it inconvenient to close the app for the train to move. I personally like to keep them open so I can get to them later quickly. But this is not possible with this game. Another con about having to be active or closed is that if you do leave the app open but are not actively playing, the train does not move. This happens way to often and is very frustrating to me. If I were to be nitpicking, I could also say that the lights in factories and depots don’t match (as in the lights just flout and have no source) but this is not problem in any way gameplay wise. Other than these few (semi big) flaws, the game is great and as a random stranger to you, I do recommend you play this game.

So, when I first got the game I fell in LOVE with the game. I started making great progress and I loved it so much that I played it for 6 hours STRAIGHT. So I had a really good train and I checked the progress book or whatever it is, and it said “Make a stop at (where the place was to complete the 1st chapter)”. And so what I did was... set a waypoint to the place (whatever it was) to complete the chapter, and I turned off my iPad because I was tired. And what happened was when I got back... my train didn’t go to where I placed my checkpoint! But when I placed it and kept my iPad on, it went to the checkpoint perfectly fine. And I don’t fully know if it’s a bug or anything but it seems like one to me. But other than that, I haven’t seen any other bugs. But there’s one review that says he/she had an obstacle in front of her train and couldn’t tap it away, that has happened to me only once. So like I said great game and could use just a little tinkering. -Anonymous fan
