If you have spent numerous hours playing Shortline in 90s or just love challenging puzzles, you definitely should check this one out. The difficulty of the game is well-balanced and growing gradually. The graphics and sound are very nice. Even though Simple Railroad has some localization issues, it doesn't affect the gameplay itself and it wouldn't prevent you from enjoying the game.

I picked this up in the Lunar New Year sale at 80% off, and for that price, Simple Railroad is good value. The goal is to lay tracks and direct a given number of trains or carriages to their destinations, usually within a (so far) generous time period. The challenge comes from various environments that limit your track placement, and the difficulty of avoiding other trains. If you do crash, you can send out a special train to clear the wreck, but that train also must be directed back to a station. It can get quite hectic, but there are buttons to slow down the gameplay which helps a lot. Laying track costs money, but I haven't been short of cash yet. You also get to spend your earnings on restoring old trains which is actually quite motivating and the 3D models look pretty good. I've not finished one yet, but there are achievements for doing so. I played the first seven levels before writing this review, and enjoyed the challenge. Sure, the graphics look a bit cheap and the English isn't perfect, but the gameplay is good enough to warrant a positive review.

a very good puzzle game, if you thought the days of the old DOS train sim games were fun, this one will bring back memories.
