Bland copy of Mini Metro, but worse and totally overpriced. Avoid this and play Mini Metro instead.22 found this helpful
9/10 A good somewhat unique train game that looks like mini metro, but differentiate itself and improve on it! Absolutely get it if you already like this genere of games!! More in depth: At first sight the squares/circles/triangles, dragging lines and trains/carriages just screams Mini Metro and the goal indeed is: try to move at many passengers as possible without station overcrowding using upgrades and route planning. Heck even the screenshots have the weird optimized loop route from very high score mini metro runs. While the key of game is still optimizing routing the upgrades comes in very different. There's a lot of "weekly upgrades" to choose from as well as discarding the concept of "new lines/tunnels/bridges". This combined with actual paying for trains and carriages yield a very different (and unique) play styles depends on how YOU like it. Whether it is huge trains and loop lines or dedicating special trains for niche passenger demands. Graphics are also quite cute i just really wish they have a tutorial for all the things new and different to this game. As well as some hint that clicking on the logo gives u the random map options.6 found this helpful

No instructions, no clue what I am doing, no explanation of what anything is. Shapes show up, cities I think, and I am supposed to link them, but do the shapes mean anything? Am I supposed to connect like shapes? And why do their seem to be two kinds of train? Passenger and freight maybe? One thumb down as is.4 found this helpful
和迷你地铁区别挺大的,没有桥梁/隧道的限制,在周奖励之外还有付给购买列车头和车厢的机制,车头和车厢还有载客数量区别,有扩容升级和载客加速升级,算是更自定义的”换乘节点“...还有一系列扩展功能,总的来说感觉比迷你地铁更自由. 游戏性的话,是和迷你地铁一样的高血压地图刷新,然后没有和现实世界的城市对应起丧失了一系列乐趣。 有中文翻译,但是一眼机器翻译(spawn -> 产卵)感觉看英文更容器看明白,不知道其他语言是不是。 希望之后可以做 1. 「极限模式」(线路不可更改) 2. 开放任意数量的线路(可以花钱买)
Enjoyable.
