    Fun game

    Very fun strategy game - akin to Sim City, but trains. Lots of add ons available (for additional price) but worth it if you are into these types of games. Lots of replay-ability. Not easy so can be frustrating for younger players trying to play solo. But, that is part of what makes this a fun game... not so simple that it is boring.

    A good sim game

    A really good game, lots of fun. Simulation games (and especially those ported from computer) can be difficult to control on console, but I found only 1 or 2 minor instances of this. Has some voiced dialogue, which is fun. Lots of modes and additional content. Happy with this purchase.

    SimCity type game

    If your the type that likes to building simulation this is for you. It requires alot of managing if this isn't you type then you will find it time consuming to build to get more achievements. So only choose this of your Simulation building type of gamer whom wants a different type of challenge.

    fun graphics need a little but still fun

    start your empire and enjoy the idea of building a connected network of trains to supply to the outlying cities . The idea and mechanics are fun but the buttons for each action needed better choices as it can get confusing on the switch controller. Nonetheless good game overall and different from usual titles

    Reason

    Love the concept of this game. I'm a huge industrial revolution era history fan and train transportation. I bought this mainly as a vote with your wallet kind of move, to encourage more games like it.
