The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A relaxed, hands-on simulation that lets you methodically pilot detailed trains through scenic routes, with a sandbox feel for tinkering and exploring.

What players say

Players praise the simple, classic train simulation and the massive selection of third-party DLC, but consistently warn about performance problems like crashes and poor optimization. The high cost of DLC is a nearly universal complaint, though many say sales make it worthwhile.
