This one ranks lower than some of the other Choice Games for me, but I still enjoyed it! I really liked the writing! The characters are interesting, but you really have to choose just one per play through and focus in on them, which I feel like has its pros and cons. I actually wish it was longer and gave us more time to deal with the railroad management and romance, cuz it felt like things moved too quickly near the end. Time limits in general were not appreciated as a story mechanic.
★★★★★
I definitely wouldn't market this as a romance story. As many others pointed out, the romance aspect is extremely brief and underwhelming, and is sure to disappoint those that bought the game hoping to read romance. I actually liked the game most of the time, but it's too difficult and short. My biggest complaint is that this story actually has a great plot and design, but it doesn't go far enough. There are so many great ideas and events in the story, but it doesn't explore them to their full extent, or anywhere near it. I know some didn't like the inventory/stat style of the game, but I found it to be enjoyable and unique... but again, it cannot be used to its full extent. For example, one of the upgrades you can do takes 3 weeks, and the game only lasts 5, so you can't get a return on that (large) investment. The author crafted a cast of awesome, interesting, unique characters and then... pretty much threw them in the trash. This just feels like a game that could have been great, but hit a time constraint and was published when it was 35% done. So much potential, an experience that is pretty much just okay. I did enjoy the author's voice and humor, though. I would give them another chance in the future for sure; they're creative and talented.
★★☆☆☆
I really don't like giving low stars on these games, I really don't. I know the effort that was put in this, but this one was unfortunately a disappointment. I was looking forward to a rare romance oriented game, but there is none. It feels so bland and forced, no connection to the characters and their emotions - nothing. Also, the money situation and debt and all that is something that I feel nobody really wants to care about, especially not in a game like this. Anyway the game had many ro choices, but they are just so lifeless. If only the interactions meant more and if the characters were fleshed out the story would probably be enjoyable.
★★☆☆☆
Fails as both a railroad management game and a romance sim. Play through are far to short and force you to experience such a small slice of game each time that the idea of replayability was obviously considered however none of the characters being likeable makes it unlikely for this to be more than a one and done. Wish I could get my money back
