So, figure out the solution on one side, then lay it all out again on the other. Just wasting my time. Made worse by the fact that the layout engine usually deliberately puts a piece down in the wrong position. Track should ALWAYS at least TRY to connect to existing track, but no, having to spin track to the totally obvious intended position is fun! Not. ### 4/5 — Good game just one request. *2026-03-13, version 1.3.4* I like it a lot but I wish there was a freeplay mode where you could build your own tracks, but overall it’s a great game :) ### 3/5 — Что за баг? *2026-03-07* Я смотрю значит рекламу для подсказок и поезда все равно сбивается как пройти уровень?! **Developer response:** Жаль слышать, что вы столкнулись с ошибкой.

That said, Matt Rix hasn’t updated it to be playable on the latest iOS so..who am I to judge 👍🙂 ### 2/5 — Cute but over priced *2026-02-13, version 1.3.4* Firstly, kudos to the developers for providing an ad free introduction to the game. This helps you make an informed decision on whether to pay for the title. Apple should enforce this approach, as otherwise the consumer is buying blind. For the game itself, it’s adorable to look at, they’ve done a great job in its aesthetics and it’s easy to play. However for me, it’s not original enough from other titles in this genre, and whilst you could watch ads (I refuse to) the price to access additional chapters significantly over values the game. Others may feel the price point is reasonable for them, but it’s too much for me. ### 5/5 — Train of thought. *2025-12-15* Just paid 8 bucks to purchase full game + added content (the Attic). Don’t think I’ve EVER paid that much for ANY apple game, cuz I’m stingy, but this had my brain “on the right track”. Don’t know about later levels, but the first was truly stimulating, so I took a chance on this brain ”trainer”. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the support! We’re really glad you decided to take a chance on the full game, and we hope it continues to challenge and reward you as you go. If you ever have feedback or questions, feel free to join our Discord or email us at support@shortcircuitstudio.com! ### 2/5 — Watch an ad per level?! *2025-12-12, version 1.3.4* Whilst this game fills the void left by the removal of Trainyard, it is sadly a commercialised shadow of that excellent game. It’s the ‘Moana 2’ of games in the regard. It asks you to either pay or watch an ad per level. It’s still teaching you the game at that point. Nice looking game ruined by greed - I’ll note that when I see anything by this developer in future. ### 5/5 — Trainyard spiritual successor *2025-11-10, version 1.3.4* Someone mentioned that it filled the gap left by Trainyard, and that was enough for me to download and play it. It didn’t disappoint and i can confirm it is true. I paid for the Full game unlock and I don’t regret it. On top of that, the mastery levels are really challenging (which is a good thing!). Only small feedback i can give is that while I like the draw mode, it can be a but finicky on a phone screen and it would be awesome to be able to zoom closer for better fat finger accuracy. ### 5/5 — Fun, Calm *2025-11-02, version 1.3.4* This game is so fun and it is great to calm yourself down and the designs are amazing ### 5/5 — So well made!!! *2025-11-02, version 1.3.4* I was just playing and then I saw that this game has no ADDS it’s amazing I have never played a game with no ADDS before!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome Sauce Game of The Year *2025-11-01, version 1.3.4* it’s just so fun like idk it’s just fun to play and it’s so funny when the train crash or they crash into sum so funny😭😭😭 ### 5/5 — Top *2025-10-24* Schönes Spiel **Developer response:** Vielen Dank! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass dir das Spiel gefällt — das bedeutet uns wirklich viel. Wenn du Feedback oder Ideen teilen möchtest, erreichst du uns jederzeit über Discord oder unter support@shortcircuitstudio.com ### 5/5 — Phenomenon *2025-10-04* I played the base gamr first and it impressed and pleased me so much I bought the whole game and all the expansion packs. It is perfect for solving easy to very difficult puzzles in the most beautiful and well thought out locations. The trains are well loved with patina. You would make a mistake by not trying out this game. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für deine wunderbare Rückmeldung! 🚂💛 Es freut uns riesig, dass dir das Spiel so gut gefällt und du sogar die Vollversion und Erweiterungen ausprobiert hast. Wir wünschen dir weiterhin viel Spaß beim Tüfteln — und falls du Feedback hast, erreichst du uns jederzeit auf Discord oder unter support@shortcircuitstudio.com ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Kein Spiel möglich *2026-08-04* Leider ist man in der Werbeschleife - noch vor Spielbeginn gefangen: der Zug lässt sich nicht starten - daher muss man einen Hinweis wählen. Dies zwingt einen, Werbung anzusehen. Danach verschwindet der Hinweis , ohne das der Zug losgefahren ist. Beim nächsten Hinweis das gleiche. Da das restliche Spiel selbsterklärend programmiert ist, muss das ganze ein Programmierfehler sein. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für die Meldung! Wir konnten den beschriebenen Fehler auf unseren Geräten leider nicht reproduzieren. Könntest du uns bitte ein kurzes Video davon an support@shortcircuitstudio.com schicken oder es in unserem Discord teilen? Das würde uns sehr helfen, das Problem genauer zu untersuchen und die Ursache zu finden. ### 1/5 — Stop asking for a review *2026-07-14, version 1.3.4* Stop asking for a review ### 1/5 — C’est de la…. *2026-06-27* Daube **Developer response:** Nous sommes désolés d'apprendre que le jeu ne vous a pas plu. Si vous avez un moment, pourriez-vous nous dire ce que vous n'avez pas apprécié ? Vos retours nous aident à améliorer le jeu. Vous pouvez nous contacter à support@shortcircuitstudio.com ou rejoindre notre communauté Discord. Merci d'avoir essayé le jeu. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-05-30, version 1.3.4* Horrible chapter two tried pressing the first level and the game said I had to buy it every chapter 9 CHAPTERS don’t recommend ### 1/5 — Great game ruined by Ads *2025-11-13, version 1.3.4* I understand the need to earn money, but 90 seconds of ads per level at chapter 2? Not doing it. Most the levels at this stage take less than that to solve, so more time is spent on ads and between levels than actually playing. What twisted insanity is that? I was still at the point where it’s teaching me elements of the game, so I’m definitely not buying the full game at this stage. I was a huge fan of Trainyard and miss it greatly, so this looked like it would be the next best thing, but just from the overwhelming ads before I’m even invested in the game is an immediate switch off for me mentally and now I wouldn’t want to give a penny to the devs even if this tuned out to be superior. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Avoid *2025-10-28, version 1.3.4* Isn’t it funny how these games beg you for a review before you find out the trap? This one locks you out of the entire game unless you are happy to sit there watching never ending lengthy ads after every round or spend a small fortune. ### 1/5 — Chapter 1 episode 27 IMPOSSIBLE *2025-09-27, version 1.3.3* I looked on yt and they made it look easier than it really is. CANT COMPLETE CUZ UNFAIR ### 1/5 — SCAM *2025-08-16, version 1.3.3* So I went to Today section and I saw the game I was going to play it but it was a scam it was on level 15 15! ### 1/5 — Hints *2025-06-28, version 1.3.3* The hints just give you things you already know. I wish the hints would give you things that you don’t know. Update it and I will give this game 2 stars. ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads. *2025-06-22, version 1.3.3* No coments ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great fun! *2026-08-07, version 1.3.4* Well made and the bonus levels are fantastic. ### 5/5 — Cool! *2026-05-23, version 1.3.4* Sssssssssssssssssssssssssso good happy ### 5/5 — Хорошая игра,но не мой жанр *2026-05-04* Для разработчиков: Нашел вам над чем поработать.Когда нажимаешь на ластик и после переходишь в режим установки плиток и там выбираешь режим рисования «карандашик».Режим выбирается и можно рисовать,но кружок выбора режима остается на ластике. Проверил пару раз и да,мне не показалось как я подумал увидев первый раз.Как бы все работает,режимы не путаются,но кружок выбора при такой комбинации не соответствует режиму А так игра хорошая,но не удобно рисовать когда даже из депо нельзя сразу сделать поворот,лиюо я не разобрался,поэтому забудем это **Developer response:** Спасибо за подробный отчёт — это очень полезно! 😊 Похоже, проблема связана с тем, что индикатор выбора интерфейса обновляется неправильно. Мы обязательно проверим это. Жаль, что жанр оказался не совсем вашим, но спасибо за помощь! support@shortcircuitstudio.com и Discord открыты для связи. ### 5/5 — So great! 😀 so beautiful and so magical! 🚂🚋🚋 *2026-05-04, version 1.3.4* INFINITE/10 ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2026-04-28, version 1.3.4* This app is so cute and addicting. Although it is a little bit hard at first as you have to figure it all out, and if you’re in build mode it takes quite a while to press the little rotation buttons, it is one of the best games I’ve played. I love it and it is so quiche. Thanx for the response! ### 5/5 — Nice Game - Found a little bug *2026-03-20* I really like the game. However, I noticed a small issue: the trains seem to behave differently depending on the game speed. I was able to win a level, but when I replayed it at a different speed, I ended up losing. **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words — and for reporting this! 😊 That definitely shouldn’t happen, so we’d love to take a closer look. Game speed shouldn’t affect outcomes like that in a way that changes a win to a loss. If you’re able to, please send us a short video or steps to reproduce it at support@shortcircuitstudio.com or share it on our Discord. That will really help us investigate and fix it. ### 5/5 — Love It .. choo choo! *2026-02-27, version 1.3.4* Great game for keeping the brain active ### 5/5 — Train of thought. *2026-01-22, version 1.3.4* Just paid 8 bucks to purchase full game + added content (the Attic). Don’t think I’ve EVER paid that much for ANY apple game, cuz I’m stingy, but this had my brain “on the right track”. Don’t know about later levels, but the first was truly stimulating, so I took a chance on this brain “trainer”. Addendum: the devs were kind enough to contact me with a courteous response. Could’ve been AI generated, but still a nice touch. 😊 ### 5/5 — I find a one time purchase game refreshing… *2026-01-11, version 1.3.4* And if you’re going to spend a few bucks on something at once puzzling and cozy, and a game you’ll have when there’s no signal or you just don’t want another mah jongg ad..: make it this one. You’ll thank me. ### 5/5 — The train game *2025-12-16, version 1.3.4* Is the best Ever --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
