Teeny Tiny Trains

No game that I own a legitimate license for should ever nag me to buy the game in order to play. I checked. It wasn't the DLC. From the end of Chapter 1 forwards the game nags me, despite owning it legitimately. I paid. One of the main perks of paying for something is getting to play it, let alone not getting nag screens any more. Small update: I would be willing to remove or reverse my review if this issue is fixed and/or resolved. I actually rather like this game and find it charming, to be honest - well, the first chapter of it was, anyway.

starts giving you popups to buy the game or watch an ad every time you finish a level after chapter one (neither option is even clickable, nor is the popup closeable, you have to back out to the main menu and select the next level) obvious rush job of a mobile port doing a disservice to an otherwise decent casual puzzler upon further investigation, there is an option in the settings to unlock all levels that solves the problem, but still... shouldn't be necessary

[h2]A surprisingly content-rich train-themed color matching puzzle game[/h2] [h3]When I got the game, I thought it would be a short puzzle game of 3-5 hours, but turns out it has about 300 levels (plus over a hundred with DLC), some very tough, and it took me already a few weeks doing a few levels every day... and I still have about a dozen levels left.[/h3] Well, it is a train-themed color matching puzzle game that has 8 chapters (each for one room, from kids room to outdoor treehouse) and introduces a new mechanic in every chapter... The first chapter is just taking the trains to their destinations in the right color and order. Then you have gates that open/close when a train goes over the lock, coloring stations that repaints the trains that go through them, splitter that splits the trains, waiting stations that add one wagon to the trains passing through, accelerator and decelerator to speed up or slow down the trains moving through, tunnels, traffic lights and so on. When you consider all the different mechanics and the small grid in which you have to piece together the puzzle (often with trees/houses as obstructions), the possibilities are limitless. There are 30 levels in…

Teeny Tiny Trains, developed and published by Short Circuit Studios, is a deceptively simple puzzle game that builds its entire identity around clarity, precision, and thoughtful design. On the surface, it presents a cozy, almost playful aesthetic, inviting players into miniature worlds filled with small train sets and compact layouts. It looks like something gentle and relaxing—and to some extent, it is—but beneath that approachable exterior lies a carefully constructed puzzle experience that steadily increases in complexity and demands genuine focus. The core gameplay revolves around guiding trains safely across a network of tracks by placing routes, switching paths, and managing timing. Rather than directly controlling the trains, players act more like a planner or dispatcher, shaping the system so that everything runs smoothly. This indirect control is where the game finds its strength. Every decision carries weight, and even a small adjustment can affect the entire layout. As more trains are introduced and routes begin to overlap, puzzles evolve into intricate problems of sequencing and foresight. It becomes less about reacting and more about anticipating, requiring players t…
