Engineer me - Absolutely riveting!
Enjoying this a lot. Very different, clever, and fun. Makes your brain stretch, if you love trains and track layouts, get this!
Update:
I've now done all the levels so what is next? Buy the full game for more levels and added options. Addictive, I've played into the wee hours of the morning because I think "just this one more..." but I keep going. Excellent puzzles, can't wait for more. Thank you for creating this interesting and challenging game. By the way I don't hand out 5 stars very often so you know I am very pleased by this app. (I am running OS 5.1.1 on an ancient iPad and it works fine, no freezing like others report.)

Great, fun game, but...
This is an awesome game that really racks your brain for some clever solutions. The only problem that I have is when I complete a puzzle, the game will freeze on me in the sense that I cannot press any of the buttons to move to the next puzzle or to go to the menu or anything. The sounds are still going and the light effects in the background, but it doesn't do anything when a button is pushed. I have to close the app after every puzzle and then reopen it to complete the next one. Please fix!

Frozen Screen
I don't normally write reviews, but I applaud this game for being very addictive yet education. It teaches you techniques and whatnot. for this portion I do give it 8 of 5 stars. But I have a problem...
Anyways, after completion of a puzzle when it says that I found a solution, no buttons seem to work. I would close out of the game, reopen it back to the welcome screen and it remains that I completed the puzzle and that i can move on. I believe this is a bug fix, and can be easily resolved. Am I the only one experiencing this? It can be annoying after completing each puzzle and closing it out and moving on to the next puzzle.

Difficult, yet fun
I usually don't write reviews, but I have been playing this recently and just had to write a review because it earned it. I find this very enjoyable because I like logic and strategy puzzles, and this delivers flawlessly. My best piece of advice for solving the puzzles is trial and error. Try something, change it, try something completely different and so forth. When I get iTunes money I will definitely buy the full version. I tip my hat to the dev. One of the best games I have ever played, hope this helped you decide!

Unbelievable Fun
This is the best game I've played in a long time. It's well written, no errors I've encountered so far, very well-thought-out, and endlessly entertaining. The object is to get trains from their start to their destination building and endless amount of track and switches to accomplish the goal. No scoring, just get it done! Also, you're not trapped on one level - you can go back and forth between puzzles, and create multiple scenarios and save them to try to solve. It's easy to erase and start all over, or just erase parts of a line. Frustrated? Go back through the tutorial, which is done at the same time you're playing, in other words, the tutorial in integrated into the game. This rocks.

Awesome but now has a bug in iOS 8 :(
Still a great game - redownloaded into iphone 6 and it was playing great but after 1/2 way through the levels it crashes once you compete it so you have to restart the app to progress. Still worth doing just to play though :-)
Why I Love It
Updated review October 2014: With Trainyard, you have enough success to keep you confident, and there is enough challenge to keep you engaged. There are thousands of puzzle games out there. In my opinion, very few are as clever and satisfying as Trainyard (for adults anyway). Previous Review: LOVE the game. Enough challenges to be intriguing and enough successes to keep me coming back. I bought the full version and it is equally awesome!

Great Game, Challenges are Flawed
This is a fantastic brain teaser game and will have you equally frustrated and elated by your inability or ability to solve the levels.
One little flaw is the 100,000 journey challenge which I've been on course to shatter a few times but sadly the level restarts sometimes when you reopen which given the top speed you can go means it's almost impossible to finish unless you're staring at your phone for the best part of a day.

Greatest puzzler ever
If you love flow then your going to want to get this app. Puzzles are simple at first (like they should be) but once you get into the game it puts a slight twist into it. They way you mix and match the colors (simple mixing but still gets tough) and the thought behind it blew my mind. Again if you have played flow (the dot connecting game) and thought it was too simple but still liked it a little then get this game. Nothing beats passing time like passing and smashing trains.
