About Trans-Siberian Railway Simulator: Prologue
Trans-Siberian Railway Simulator: Prologue puts you behind the controls of an iconic VL10 locomotive in late '80s Russia, where you can pursue three distinct paths as a legitimate train driver, desperate survivor, or mobster while managing locomotive maintenance, cargo economics, and intense survival needs. What sets it apart is the blend of intricate train simulation with a gritty open-world experience where weather, hunger, combat, and railway law enforcement create emergent storytelling across the vast Siberian routes.
Key Game Features:
- Simulation of the iconic VL10 locomotive - choose between simplified and realistic controls and procedures.
- Railway traffic - obey signs and signals, avoid derailments and damage to the locomotive.
- Repairs and maintenance - monitor part wear and replace components before disaster strikes.
- Economy and trade - make money transporting cargo. Buy food, tools, locomotive parts, and weapons. Sell hunting trophies, meat, loot, and scrap.
- Hunting and combat - use weapons for hunting, self-defense, or robbery.
- Law and order - the Militia keeps order, and civilians defend their resources.
- Survival system - control hunger, thirst, illness, hypothermia, alcohol, and hangover levels to stay alive.
- Weather and day-night cycle - blizzards, night, and fog affect visibility. Low temperatures can kill you.
- Route - a section spanning several kilometers through Novosibirsk. Buy the full version, which offers about 840 km in 1:1 scale and many places and activities to discover.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Trans-Siberian Railway Simulator: Prologue receives mixed feedback from players. Supporters praise its promise and appeal to train enthusiasts, while critics point to technical issues including getting stuck in inspection mode, excessive lag, control problems, and overly complicated or instruction-heavy gameplay that detracts from the experience. Players seem interested in the concept but suggest the game needs optimization and quality-of-life improvements before being worth purchasing.
No matter you choice tutorial or no you see the same thing, developer lie to the player, spend five minutes slaughter innocent peoples with chainsaw, one hundred percent do it again.1 found this helpful
Looks very promising would love to try the full game!1 found this helpful
seems like a great game for people who love trains too much.
Games nice but not for me. Too complicated.
customizing the interact button, if you enter inspection mode you cannot get out of the mode... makes the game unplayable.
Too much instructions and my handles kept getting jammed and it was very very laggy!
