### 3/5 — Please fix basic problems!

*2026-08-23, version 1.8.0*

So many on here have already pointed out issues with the UI, including;
-text on screen that covers the rail system, leaving the player blind for a potentially fatal amount of time
-while you can zoom in and out, there is no easy way to set the view back to it’s default position. I spend half the time trying to get the screen to get back to default view, which is the only way to actually move train lines and cars
-why can’t you add more cities?

Unfortunately, once an app has been out for a while, developers move on to other things, leaving the core product with annoying bugs that no one will actually care to resolve. No resolution, no evolution.

### 3/5 — Frustating and difficult to play

*2026-03-22*

Compared to mini motorways, the UI and trying to create connections is very frustrating and annoying to play. Unless there’s major UI and design updates, I would reccommend not playing this.

### 4/5 — Elegantly Designed Game

*2026-03-14, version 1.9.0*

Mini Metro is so elegant in its design—both aesthetically and sonically. Problem solving and resource management are its main themes. The number of different cities available to play gives Mini Metro much-needed variety. Fun, relaxing, and at times frustrating, this game has provided me with a lot of entertainment.

Because the maps/levels are small in comparison to the cities they emulate—and because you’re only given limited resources—it is extremely hard to reach scores ≥2,000 points on many of them. 

Duplicate “circle” stations has frustrated a lot of players (including myself), but if you keep in mind that there’s no “beating” this game, then you realize that each game is just an exercise in the aforementioned skills of problem solving, resource management, and patience.

No two games are alike because of random generation, keeping the game from being too monotonous. Attention to small details are very important—as is relaxing and not taking it too seriously.

Finally, I’d love to see a sequel with the same simple graphic design featuring larger maps, new game parameters, and a little more variety in both management options and train, track, and terrain designs.

8/10 ☆

### 4/5 — It’s a great game and can get into it very quickly, but we need branch lines

*2026-03-04, version 1.8.0*

It is a good game but yes I do feel like we do need branch lines and yeah I feel like maybe control support because if you use this phone just pretty much give up but it is a view, relaxing and fun games but definitely doesn’t need a branch line because sometimes like you have like like a line that’s like strip then like a station to close to it you can’t control you have a whole new line New York City subway add the letters please because then it could go on longer, but did they feel the most fun game and don’t buy many Metro with money by this one because that other one’s a scam you have to pay a dollar

### 4/5 — Locomotive design

*2026-03-01, version 1.8.0*

The game is a little harder to pick up and understand than Mini Motorway. I think the issue that has stood out the most to me is how difficult it is to manage the locomotives - I will open a new metro line and there won’t be any locomotives actually running on it?

Unless I am missing something out, or it is a bug then my apologies.

I think a good way to fix this would be a menu to manage the locomotives and their direction. Possibly with the Line Closing buttons on the right or the +locomotive upgrade button on the left, there should be one to open a pop-up menu. This would allow the user to drag-and-drop a locomotive into any of the metro lines, or into an ‘Unassigned’ pool, and by clicking on said locomotive the user can determine the direction of the locomotive. This could also be where the user can assign locomotives their carriages.

I understand this is somewhat possible when the locomotive is moving on the metro line: however I have found this difficult to do. For one, you have to wait until the locomotive is not at a station. And secondly, when this does happen it is tricky to actually select the locomotive and not the metro line, and to determine its direction.

This game definitely has a lot of potential, and I have really enjoyed both Mini Metro and Mini Motorway; but I think the above change is really necessary.

### 4/5 — Ganz ganz toll

*2026-01-10*

ein sehr schönes Spiel… Man kommt gut rein und kann sich lange damit beschäftigen… Nur ein bisschen mehr Abwechslung wäre noch schön

### 3/5 — Lots of Problems

*2025-12-28, version 1.8.0*

This game is fun, really fun. But, there are a lot of issues that kill the fun produced by this game.

1: Save Problems
When I exited a creative mode game, and attempted to re-enter, all of my progress made previously was lost and I am unsure how to restore or recover it.

2: Can't Place In-Bounds
In the same creative mode game, I was attempting to place stations (on the New York City map) on the top right corner of the map, after multiple attempts, I was unable to.

3: Grid Issue (sorry for poor syntax)
In the same creative mode game, I was placing stations on the right side of the map (where Brooklyn and Queens are respectively) when the circles around stations prohibiting the placement of more stations disappeared. Despite those areas disappearing, and the grid now reappearing in those areas, I was unable to place stations in those areas.

Please fix these issues or take time to review this.

### 3/5 — Too stressful

*2025-12-27, version 1.8.0*

There is constant pressure on me and I can’t take it anymore!!!

### 4/5 — Really good

*2025-12-20, version 1.8.0*

It's a really good, but I'm kinda bored with how easy some of the levels are (I finished Melbourne in 4 in-game weeks)so please add harder cities

### 4/5 — Precisa melhorar

*2025-12-18*

Tem um momento do jogo que o vagão simplesmente não para na estação e ela enche! O vagão anda sem nada. Como o colega diz abaixo, é o computador jogando e a gente assistindo

### 2/5 — The plus is the Apple Arcade version

*2025-12-11, version 1.8.0*

I don’t like this game but I would recommend mini moterways 

Also anyone who wonders what the plus is it is an Apple Arcade version with no ads or in-app purchases

### 4/5 — THE GAME IS GREAT, BUT THERES IS A BUG WITH EXTRA CARS

*2025-11-09, version 1.8.0*

When you are playing and pass a week successfully they give you extra cars for you to attach to the trains, but 70% of the time you don’t get that extra car so it’s more difficult for you to get those extra passengers.

### 2/5 — Love it on mobile, but mediocre on iOS

*2025-10-30, version 1.8.0*

The UI just doesn’t really work on iOS. Everything is too small, even on a Pro Max. I keep missing traffic issues because animations are too subtle once the map expands.

Also, why does it not honour dark theme? Basic quality of life improvement right there.

Simply not enjoyable.

### 5/5 — 人類はカス

*2025-08-14*

人類には計画性というものがないらしく、こちらの意に沿わない場所に都市を発展させておきながら、電車が通らないと勝手に怒りだすし、似た施設を近くに建てて輸送の邪魔をするし、心の底から滅んでほしいと思います。

もう少しのんびりしたゲームだと思っていたので、こういうスリリングでイラつくゲーム性だったのは意外でしたが、これはこれで面白いかと思います。

### 5/5 — Топ

*2025-05-28*

Это имба!

### 5/5 — The game is very cool

*2025-05-01*

The game is very cool , I was glad to see St. Petersburg . Game often helps for boring

### 2/5 — Challenges built without checks

*2025-04-02, version 1.7.3*

Let’s put cities across four different land masses on level 3, before you get a second bridge, guaranteeing a game over. Let’s keep doing that.

This has potential, but the game needs to have better AI to check if the required number of bridges are available before crossing land masses.

### 1/5 — Entediante

*2025-09-10*

O jogo tem muito potencial, mas precisa melhorar bastante. Não faz sentido as vezes, vc não sabe porque as estações enchem, vc não consegue comprar as coisas que precisa, é tudo muito automático e vc não tem muita opção, é mais um computador jogando e vc acompanhando.

### 1/5 — a casual game thats not casual

*2025-06-08, version 1.7.3*

monochrome and lack variety

### 1/5 — Não abre

*2025-06-01*

Quando clico para abrir o jogo, fica apenas com uma tela preta

### 1/5 — Bored

*2025-01-31, version 1.7.3*

Nothing has changed since day 1 or two. Seemingly maxed out all stations/lines etc and got nowhere to go. A whole month has passed and everything is just running the same. Zero progress, zero tasks. Just staring at a screen now

### 1/5 — Game doesn’t end

*2024-10-17, version 1.7.1*

I’ve had a game running for like 6 days. Stations stop appearing after a while so if your lines are balanced you reach a point where it can just run forever. Which is really boring. I’ll probably just force a loss and then uninstall.

### 1/5 — Cute Game, Horrendous Controls

*2023-09-24, version 1.6.1*

Played a couple times and was really enjoying it, but if you try to ever reroute the tracks you might as well throw your phone out the window.  It always does the most backwards thing from what you really want.  Want to remove a connection between two stations?  How about we just make the track circle back!  Try again! How about we remove the entire line!  Try to add it back?  Haha, we will just move all the other adjacent lines on top.  Want to adjust a path of a track?  How about you just pick up a random train and we’ll let you figure out where it came from…

Fix your idiotic control scheme and I’ll play it again, otherwise it ain’t worth the electricity…

### 1/5 — controller support needed

*2023-08-15, version 1.6.1*

controller support needed

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-08-02*

On my iPhone 13 nothing happens when I push play button. Maybe bug in current version

**Developer response:** Hey there! We've released an update that fixes this issue. Make sure your app is up to the most recent release :)

### 1/5 — Really boring and not very engaging

*2023-07-10, version 1.5*

It’s not fun and has a very bad goal. I’m just supposed to drag things to there and watch trains. Def 1 star

### 1/5 — I DON’T GET IT

*2023-02-15, version 1.5*

Mini motorway I understood, enjoyed it but eventually deleted it because it was so challenging. This game.....I’m totally lost!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — i love it!

*2026-07-26, version 1.8.0*

so I unlocked every city in the game, including my city I live in and it’s pretty fun. I really like it download this game if you want to build your own metro

### 5/5 — ignore guy asking for calgary

*2026-05-30, version 1.8.0*

calgary has an LRT not a metro. great game though

### 5/5 — I love it…

*2026-05-18, version 1.8.0*

I love it but the 1 thing that got me is the lines. I’ve seen these before, a turn around, so let’s say you’re ending the line. You want a loop so a turnaround using stations. So the end of it can go to the next station that’s already connected.

### 5/5 — Название станций

*2026-03-30*

Разработчики добавьте функцию делать названия станций в креативном режиме

### 5/5 — Супер но

*2026-03-27*

Игра супер Интересная,но было бы здорово расширить масштаб. Почему линий всего 7? Почему бы не масштабировать игру? И проблема ее в том,что у всех городов есть определенный лимит,дальше которого невозможно продвинуться,и мировые рейтинги это подтверждают

### 5/5 — 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

*2026-03-13*

Если бы можно было ставить 10 звёзд я бы сразу все поставил
Спасибо Dinosar polo club

### 5/5 — Calgary

*2026-01-10, version 1.8.0*

I would really appreciate that if you can add Calgary because it’s the 3rd busiest metro in Canada otherwise GREAT GAME!

### 5/5 — Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
