### 5/5 — Love is Silent

*2026-06-13, version 3.08*

Thank You RWAK

### 5/5 — Love this

*2026-05-20, version 3.08*

This is my perfect puzzle/problem solving app. Happy to pay a reasonable amount for something like this. Challenging enough for me whilst still keeping it fun. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Masterpiece

*2026-03-18*

The best puzzle game I’ve found on App Store, it is so hard despite its looks I’m in high school and I get stuck

### 5/5 — Loving it

*2026-02-08*

This is relaxing yet challenging, a favorite! Graphics are very lovingly made aswell.

### 4/5 — Good, but not for the casual gamer

*2026-02-07, version 3.08*

This is well designed, well constructed game, but after a few levels, it becomes far too hard for casual gaming. If you have the time and the intelligence, I can imagine it’s very rewarding. But for me it was just a case of pressing hint and hint.
Being challenging, but also playable is a difficult thing to achieve.

### 3/5 — Refund

*2025-12-22*

Hello! This game doesn’t launch on my iPad. Can I refund please? Thank you.

### 5/5 — 遊びを超えた完全軌道解答に脱帽

*2025-10-10*

チュートリアルを兼ねたレベルに始まり仕組みの理解と練習、応用と遊び易い構成でムダなモノが全く無い。大好きな操作性で可愛くてカッコいいデザイン。心地良い音楽や効果音の中で基礎を学んでも応用問題は難解！力技で強引に解決できないから本当にヒントがあって良かった。おかげで完璧で美しい軌道に感動できる。そして次の機会に経験を活かして達成感を味わえる。サイズやコンセプトに迷いが無いステキなレベルの全てにおいて、鉄道関係の様々な仕組みは各々シンプルで明解でも敷設のパズルは組み合わせが多彩なので、忘れた頃に戻って新鮮な感動を幾度も楽しめる傑作！その為の設定機能も充実のパーフェクト・レールウェイです。

### 4/5 — 최적화가 필요해 보여요

*2025-05-31*

퍼즐은 재밌어요. 그런데 폰이 너무 뜨거워져서 오래 생각하기 쉽지 않아요.  배터리도 너무 빨리 닳아요.

### 5/5 — Класс

*2025-03-09*

Мне понравилось, но, тебе придётся выжидать момента когда удаётся запустить игру

### 5/5 — Tolles Knobelpiel!

*2025-02-07*

Perfekt für alle, die gern Rätsel lösen. Der Schwierigkeitsgrad variiert, manchmal geht’s schnell und manchmal muss man etwas länger überlegen. Macht großen Spaß!
