Rated 5 out of 5 stars
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.
