About Tumbleweed Express
The year is 1885, the height of the Age of Steam in the United States of America. But something is not quite right in the land of destiny and the free market: Dirigibaus, a ruthless entrepreneur, has monopolized trade in the West with a fleet of airships! Dirigibles and zeppelins dot the skies as agents of an oppressive business regime.
Someone still fights for the little people, though. The venerable Tumbleweed Express Steam Engine, long-thought to be obsolete and scrapped, is set to saddle up and ride again. The Tumbleweed is about to spearhead a logistics campaign meant to compete with the Dirigibaus, bringing support to those who have been downtrodden and forgotten. Dirigibaus doesn't take kindly to competition, however, so the Tumbleweed has armed herself for war...
Do you have what it takes to beat the Baus?

Saw this posted years ago on plebbit (garbage website now, stay the F away) and added the game to my wishlist. Years later I finally bought it. Super fun literal rail shooter. A little confusing at first but easily figured out. Why are you reading my review still? Buy it already ya putz.2 found this helpful

This brings me back... Definitely pick up the soundtrack. :P
Good but short story. Old school vibes. Quite ok graphics but many times some things might feel off. Map design is good, but tracks could be placed in more seamless way. Awesome train management view. Excellent voice acting. The contracts system is qute challenging but also rewarding. The cutscenes aspired to be something great, but they lacked details, making the overall art feel like poorly colored concept art. Overall i am recommending this title as it is at least 5/10, but it might be better. I like trains!
nice. more please!!
