How it feels

You feel like a city planner orchestrating a complex transit network, balancing budgets and growth in a calm, methodical sandbox.

What players say

Players praise the AI and realism of transport planning, but many find the game frustrating due to freezing, tiny depots that cause traffic jams, and heavy micromanagement. The tutorial is shallow and mechanics are unintuitive, while some say it lacks features from the first game and has broken multiplayer.
