No ads, fun to play

### 5/5 — Domino

*2025-12-21*

I have been playing this game for years. I like the new graphics and the new colors etc. I realize some people want the same old thing but some of us find it refreshing to have a change. Best game I ever got!

### 5/5 — Back to normalcy

*2025-08-25, version 2.0.10*

Since GE’s Mexican Train Gold crashed and burned after the last update, it’s nice to have a functioning game with Orient Express.  Let me know when MTGold has been repaired.

### 5/5 — Great Fun

*2025-03-27*

I love this game. It's addictive. Once you start playing, it's hard to stop!

### 5/5 — Orient Express

*2025-02-25, version 2.0.10*

Lots of fun!!!!

### 1/5 — The AI is programmed to cheat

*2024-12-28, version 2.0.10*

The “players” play as a team against you, which of course isn’t how the game is actually played and is definitely cheating. All games by this developer are like that, but at least the graphics are pretty. All that said, you can usually win because AI that is programmed to cheat is not programmed to have any strategy skills.

### 4/5 — Mexican Train Review
