Locomancer

Locomancer is a charming virtual reality sandbox that captures the fascination of model railways without requiring a spare room, an enormous collection of track pieces, or hours spent dealing with physical wiring. Developed and published by Eric Lipschutz, the game is built around constructing miniature railway layouts and then bringing them to life with controllable locomotives. Rather than relying on campaigns, strict objectives, or complicated management systems, it gives players a collection of railway components and encourages them to experiment. The result feels closer to owning an interactive virtual train set than operating a traditional railway simulator. Building is the heart of the experience. Players can arrange track pieces to create simple circuits, sprawling routes, elevated sections, loops, and deliberately impractical constructions. The freedom provided by a virtual environment means there is little reason to remain completely realistic. A carefully organized miniature railway can be satisfying, but creating something ridiculous just to see whether a locomotive can survive the journey is equally entertaining. This flexibility gives Locomancer an approachable quali…

Used for VR, Quest 3 the game plays well. for a game free, it has depth. but using quest controller is clunky, ain't good. would recommend using game-pad.

Locomancer is a really relaxing VR game that basically lets me play with model trains without needing an actual train set taking over my room. The whole game is built around creating my own little railway layouts and then actually getting inside the trains to drive them. I can place tracks, scenery and different train cars wherever I want, then sit back and watch the whole thing work. It is a very simple idea, but the VR makes it feel much more like I am actually playing with a model railway instead of just looking at one on a screen. The building is easily my favourite part. I can put down straight and curved track, inclines and even loop de loops, then add scenery to make the layout feel more like a proper little world. There are different locomotives as well, including steam and diesel engines, along with different rail cars. I especially like that I am physically putting the layout together piece by piece. It gives the whole thing a nice hands on feeling that I would not get from a normal train simulator. Once I have built something I like, I can actually ride the trains. I can control them from a replica style control panel or climb into the cab and use the physical levers, …

the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game keeps crashing and the minecart carage does not even have collision and it keeps falling off the table and under the ground by clipping

I enjoy this game. What I don't get is why it has "free Palestine" in the intro. This is a train game, not a political game. Please keep politics out of train simulators please, thank you. I just want to drive a freight train and derail it, not be lectured for some political cause. Not bashing you, just saying the facts. I just want to drive some trains man.
