You sit in a faithfully recreated train cab, watching live-action footage roll by as you simply control the throttle and brakes, feeling a calm, meditative focus.

What players say
Players love the real cab video and peaceful Japanese scenery, and many recommend buying on deep sale. Performance complaints include low-resolution video and freezing on strong PCs. The stop mechanics feel clunky and imprecise, and some players say it is more arcade than simulation.
