How it feels

A calm and colorful strategic management game about building and maintaining train routes in Los Angeles.

What players say

Players appreciate the concept but say the execution feels unfinished. The economy is unbalanced, track placement is clunky, and a hard limit of two trains per line makes it impossible to meet passenger demand. The game was later made free after updates stopped, which some players praise.
