This is one of the best railroad tycoon games I ever played, although it will never beat railroad tycoon 3
★★★★★Iggy McGuinness· Feb 7, 2026
Everything was great, 11 dollars is definitely worth the full game, had a few glitches with the stations not linking to the track, but other than that, amazing experience!
★★★★★Malek Ali· Apr 7, 2025
I remember playing this game ages ago on PC. I love it! If you're rating the game poorly because you don't like paying money for hard work, then you're an idiot (and you should come work for me for free)! Rarely will you find a bad review that's constructive. They're just whining about the trial play and not about actual gameplay. My only criticism is that the trial is too short, and there are some glitches (i.e. train filling/emptying loads on the spot without actually moving city to city).

Stole $11.99 from me. Purchased unlock and short time later the game is back in demo mode. Push unlock and says can't connect to network. Purchased to play offline

I used to play this game on the PC years ago and fell in love with it. There are serious problems when trying to pair tracks or get to cities, and it tells you it's not connected. I also refuse when somebody tells me I have to pay for full version of a game and only get a trial to play. If you're going to do that and make sure your game is below the $10 mark and you might get more people as well as better reviews. The same goes for fixing the glitches.

Maybe make it clear that you can't do more than connect 3 cities before it forces you to buy the full game.
