What players say

Players praise the visuals and say it captures the feel of classic Railroad Tycoon, but many find the track and signal system broken, with trains piling up at red signals and AI blocking routes. New players say the campaign introduces things gradually, while others struggle with interface quirks and high difficulty against competitors.
