Expansion

Overall game is satisfying and fun keeps me entertained and engaged. That’s rare with my adhd. Only thing that I can think to request and give feedback is the lack of all the continent. There’s missed opportunities to be able to buy canadien or Mexican railway companies. Additionally you could add a selection for on-boarding where the person chooses where they start from.

Pay to win

Very boring generally but loaded very unfairly in favour of people who pay enough to win events

Disgusting!

I was doing well with my progression then in the space of a month you change the format on upgrading my trains and now you have changed you whole format and reduced all my production up grades to base level! Arse holes!

A good resource management game.

An enjoyable game bar events. It is a resource management game, so for those that expect unlimited resources from mines and instant production, not for you. Train restrictions on “suitable” trains for some tasks is a bit irritating, and some delivery times are questionable, when a location is obviously closer but takes twice as long to get to. Other than that an enjoyable game. Others have mentioned crashes, never had a problem. Close to 5* but not quite.

Great game BUT the updates are problematic.

I would really like to give this game 5 stars. Pro - 1. you can move up to this game without needing to spend $$ unless you want to; 2. Interesting facts along the way. 3. In the past the developers have sorted out the issues due to the updates. I’m hopeful for same results. It would be great if these can be avoided. CON - the updates are pushed with a lot of bugs it seems. Just the most recent 2 updates, I lost my duplicate trains but have not received the compensation the app said I would get. I have fully upgraded trains before I learned about the upcoming switch in several regions 2. July event downgraded my raw materials to original levels that I worked hard to upgrade with other tasks

Optimization Needed

As with all games, monetary income is the developers goal. I gotta say that $30 for the Independence Day pass is ridiculous and not worth it based on the crumbs offered. The Expansion team events need to be optimized. It seems every event gets dominated by European teams that clearly coordinate with each other to target your team and take your contested routes while leaving each other alone to gather points. Totally frustrating to not be able to gain any ground while you see the European teams prosper and you end up with a zero because your routes get taken and theirs don’t.

Recent update downgrade my resource capacity

Latest independence day update reduced my resources capacity like coal, iron etc.

Lost upgrades post update

Lost mining location upgrades after newest update.

Disgruntled

I used to enjoy the game until the latest update. I’m close to going up to a new region and had saved up lots of gears to upgrade trains once in the new region. Lost the lot in the new upgrade. From hundreds of gold gears that would have upgraded a gold train several levels I was compensated with cards to allow one gold train to go up one level in the current region. Unhappy is putting it mildly. I’m seriously considering stopping playing.
Further, all my mines in the first region have now lost all their progress. Definitely not happy with the changes.

Not impressed

Just done the latest update, for the July 4th event. Why have you reduced all the mines coal/steel/iron ore back to level 1?

About game

Hi the game is very interesting pictures are magnificent very hobby I like it very much thanks a lot.

Not loading beyond 12%

In the last week this brilliant game has refused to load. Very frustrating.

It’s finally working

But I don’t like the new update, the old one was great

Game unexpectedly shutting off after latest update. Again!!!

I enjoy playing this game and watching my cities grow. Riding along on the trains while enroute is really cool. Everything was working well lately. However once again, after the latest update the game is constantly reloading and has really affected the experience. And now it just shuts down in the middle of gameplay and I have to redo the tasks that were just completed or in the process of completing. Also the new card system will take some time to get used to but I think that part of the game will be okay.

Having problems loading

The game worked for one day then tried to get on it the next day and it wouldn’t load past 12%. I deleted the app then redownloaded it and still won’t load.

Ugghhhh

Great game if it would stay running. It’ll just close out of nowhere and loose all your progress. Frustrating. Even tried it on pc and pc version just lags.

Latest update

Does not open after the latest update. After latest iOS update on my iPad, this app does not open.

Don’t play

Game sucks now with new updates now they take away was the free way to gather cash now you have to buy turning game into credit card game now. Turn back the game you made it worse

Too many bugs getting kicked out

Starting getting annoyed now too many kick out of app sometimes it goes back where you left it but most times goes back to previous state which could mean start the process of building or sending trains again. Otherwise good game play & graphics. 18 Dec review.
Got reply 5 Feb noticed fix done before then but already stop playing due to limited levels. Now it’s another boring game. Hope to see new levels.
New June 26 to latest update
Started playing again just over a couple months ago no more kick outs but not happy with the latest update most of my gold trains disappeared most was at high level.

Updates are robbery

Whenever they roll out an update I’ve noticed that the cash on hand amount is less than what I had before as well as the train capacities. Frustrating after all the time I’ve put into this game. I’m debating on removing it and moving on to something else.
