### 2/5 — Level 3 has a banner preventing game play

*2023-09-27*

I am on level 3 and there is a banner/card over most of the board.  The banner says "train completed" with a green check mark and "good" next to it. 
Below that, it says "traveled less than 340m" without a green check mark. I'm assuming my goal is to complete the train in fewer moves, which is fine except I can't actually DO anything with 3/4 of the screen in the way. 
Developer, can you assist or patch?

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! The banner should disappear as soon as you move the locomotive.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2022-10-28*

The only thing that could make this game more interesting would be daily randomized puzzles.

### 5/5 — Sehr schöne Umsetzung dieser Puzzle Kategorie. Bitte noch weitere Level.

*2022-02-13*

Weiter so!

### 5/5 — Wird schnell fordernd

*2021-12-29*

Wir kennen schon den Timesaver von John Allen, den es hier als App gibt. Und Töchterchen wollte dieses bunte Spiel gerne spielen. Tja, nun sitze ich da, muss grübeln, knobeln und überlegen, wie ich die Züge zusammenstelle. :D Super.
Ich hoffe, es wird mehr Aufgaben geben. Daumen hoch.

### 5/5 — Wonderful game!

*2020-11-05, version 1*

Starts out simple enough to learn the moves, and then gets more and more challenging.  It’s a great game.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2020-04-29, version 1*

Also very humbling, the puzzles are very tricky. Love driving the little train around.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-01-27*

Good for introducing bright young grandchildren into concepts of logic. Higher levels fiendishly complex. Excellent game!

### 5/5 — Well done!

*2019-07-14*

I haven’t even opened the app but felt I should share why I gave 5 stars. 

In reading the information provided by the developer I honestly felt he/she is being genuine by making sure they cover the kinds of tricks some developers play with words when they call ads something else but still have them. That being said, I have no reason to think this is the case with this person(s). If I find that to not be the case, I will follow this with an update. 

I’m posting this at 04:43 (Pacific Daylight Time) on 14-7-19.

### 4/5 — Gut zum Knobeln

*2019-03-30*

Ein gutes Rätsel spiel, nicht nur für Eisenbahnfans. Allerdings zu wenig Level.

### 5/5 — Sehr gutes Strategie-/Denkspiel

*2017-04-19*

... Danke ist sein Geld wert!
Wann kommt Version2?
