Supply and demand

Love the game but would really like a way to recycle parts for trains I don’t want/ don’t use into parts for trains I do want/ use

Fun

I see you are not working the developers so hard as not so many people yawning anymore

Solid little game.

Fun and engaging at the beginning, as you expand it gets a little more chaotic as you try to keep up with all the train lines and keeping the whole world’s cargo moving. Collect parts and build trains and fuel cars to make your trains even better.

Quite addictive

Pocket trains is a really fun tycoon game. Its 2d art style gives it such a charm and unlocking and leveling up trains are cool. Only wish you didn’t have to pay to retrieve old data. 10/10 no complaints other than that.
