## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-12-28*

Don’t waste your time...

### 1/5 — Rubbish... unplayable.

*2019-02-10*

Rubbish... unplayable. Building track is the most annoying experience ever.

### 1/5 — Awflu

*2017-07-31*

What did they 'develop' this on, a ZX Spectrum?  8 bit graphics but the controls are terrible.  Do not touch with a 10 meter barg pol

### 1/5 — App is slow and crashes

*2017-05-26*

When using the zoom and map navigation the app feels very slow, making it hard to use. Everytime I try to buy a train the app crashes.

### 2/5 — Needs work.

*2019-11-20*

Could be a good “Railroad Tycoon” clone of it were refined a bit. Too difficult to use and has many bugs right now.

### 3/5 — RailTycoon

*2021-07-13*

I was looking for a game that posed a challenge to pass the time, but wasn’t too complicated. This game fit the bill, but it still needs some work. Still, with a little patience you can master it well enough to create a railroad system. When I had a question, the developer got back to me promptly with an answer and invited suggestions, which I will give him.
