Room for improvement. 2⭐️⭐️ ### 3/5 — Good but needs more stations *2026-07-11, version 1.1.14* They need to add stations in San Francisco Bay ### 3/5 — Interesting game *2026-06-27, version 1.1.14* Won’t even load for me. The other games are amazing though ### 2/5 — Macht Spaß *2026-06-21* Das Spiel ist so nicht schlecht jedoch ist nach 30 Bahnhöfen Schluss. Das finde ich sehr schade deswegen nur zwei Sterne. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for reaching out with your feedback here. I will pass it on to the team for you. ### 4/5 — Good game *2026-06-05, version 1.1.14* This game takes a lot of patience and time but, it is good in general it has real cities and trains but, in London, there is only 1 station which could be improved. Also maybe every minute could be a second and a minute could be an hour because it the train rides are real time. Otherwise good game!😊😊😊😊 ### 4/5 — Fun game could be improved *2026-04-11, version 1.1.14* Great game. Enjoying playing it so far and has some potential to be better. Few suggestions to make it better would be to make it more realistic by scheduling/automating train times/departures so trains continue on routes after reaching the end of the line instead of piling up at the station after a few hours and so you can have multiple vehicles running schedules on the same line instead of departing together. Better filters to see/plan new and current routes as well as see remaining demand on existing routes so you can plan expansion accordingly. Larger spot capacity or automating purchase of electricity/paying electric bill daily. Adding company taxes weekly. Loans and leasing trains would be useful to expand and add realism. Overall its fun but could be better. ### 3/5 — Сырая *2026-03-27* Очень не хватает автоматизации, расписания поездов благодаря которому они будут отправляться сами. Весь контент игры заключается в постоянном отправлении поездов в ручную. Неплохо было бы запланировать маршрут поезда с реальным временем. Также спрос на пассажиров кольцевых линиях мог бы уменьшаться ночью и увеличиваться в час пик, и настройка таких маршрутов была бы интереснее. Отправление одновременно хоть 10 электричек по одному маршруту,звучит не реально,можно добавить систему разграничения времени между поездами. Очень мало возможностей,очень много недочетов,но функции доната добавили,хоть в чем-то преуспел. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for reaching out with your feedback here. I will pass it on to the team for you. ### 2/5 — The SLOWEST progression in a game *2026-03-12, version 1.1.14* Cool concept, love the manager games but the fuel prices are CONSTANTLY high. Almost like they jump up when I log in, defeats the whole purpose of trying to run an efficient company. Deleting due to this. Why buy fuel at a high price with little to return on investment from the routes. Progression is a turtles pace. ### 4/5 — Make time go faster and auto depart *2026-03-03, version 1.1.14* Awesome game but I wish it would auto depart so I don’t have to log on and do it my self because I have a busy life normally I would log on once to buy trains but now I have to log on 5 times a day and please add more lines like real life ### 3/5 — Game doesn’t load *2026-02-16, version 1.1.14* For some reason when I want to load the game I just stays in the blue screen I have tried closing and opening it and deleting and it still doesn’t load ### 4/5 — Not impressed *2026-01-27, version 1.1.14* So train manager 26 off from you giving you your ID and then you got hit with ads and ads and ads just so rubbish don’t get ### 4/5 — Great Game But Could Improve *2026-01-26, version 1.1.14* I really like this game, however I do think the demand dynamic aren’t as realistic as it could be some stations that are near me with high demand are quite low. I would love to see the London Underground included so inclusion of tube like trains. I’d like to see more real life trains from greater anglia, TFL etc like the Class 755/745 and Class 720/700 Do love the game just would’ve nice to have real brands like in Airline Manager. ### 4/5 — Updates *2026-01-23* Wäre schön wenn neue Sachen dazukommen würden. ### 3/5 — シビアすぎるのと現実の路線と位置関係が違う *2025-11-05* タイトルの通りです。銘柄コードはD41D8Cです。 **Developer response:** Hi there, not sure I fully understand. Please let us know more about your feedback :) ### 4/5 — More trains *2025-10-09, version 1.3.12* Fantastic game Please add some . Uk Trains . More UK Stations . More route choices If you can’t tell I’m from the Uk😂 ### 2/5 — wenig sinn *2025-10-01* es passiert nicht viel in diesem spiel. man kauft einen zug, bestimmt eine route und lässt den zug abfahren. auf unerklärliche weise ergeben sich dann die passagier zahlen und die summe die man verdient. man kauft diesel und strom, der zug kommt an, man bestimmt auf wunsch eine neue route ind das wars. was macht das personal? warum wird die wartung bei gleichbleibendem personal und anzahl von zügen teurer? welchen einfluss hat die zufriedenheit des personals. es ergibt alles nur wenig sinn und wird die zusammenhänge (sofern vorhanden) werden nicht erklärt. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for reaching out. Staff satisfaction helps prevent audits or fines on your company - it will also help your reputation which subsequently increases demand. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 急に25編成ずつしか、出発出来なくなった *2026-06-11* 今まで、一括で列車を出発出来たのが、急に25編成ずつしか、出発出来なくなった **Developer response:** Hi there, yes. We introduced a new cap on the departures for performance reasons. You can read more about the update via the Help Centre :) ### 1/5 — Unrealistisch und langweilig *2026-02-22* Spiel kann man das nicht nennen. 3-4 Mal am Tag kann man Züge losfahren lassen und das war’s. Die Strom- und Dieselpreise sind so unrealistisch hoch, dass man kaum Geld verdienen kann. **Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for the feedback - I will let the team know. ### 1/5 — Game crash *2025-11-20, version 1.3.12* Every time I try to play it lets me sign in then a dark blue screen pops up and stays like that I’ve deleted and reinstalled but still does the same thing ### 1/5 — Dauer crash ohne pause *2025-10-09* Wer Spass daran hat alle 5 Minuten sein iPad neu zu starten ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Ich starte mein iPad, spiele 2 Minuten, spiele 5 Minuten etwas anderes und muss erst mein iPad neu starten bevor ich dieses Spiel wieder starten kann. Selbst während des Spielens kann es zu Aufhängern kommen. Das Spiel an sich ist eigentlich gut konzipiert und perfekt um kleine Pausen zu überbrücken ohne gleich lange gebunden zu sein. Aber die permanenten Neustarts haben mich zur deinstallation gezwungen. Der eine Stern ist da auch eher Zierde als Rezension. **Developer response:** Hi there, we are sorry to hear this. Please try clear the cache on your device and see if that helps the crashing. If not, reach out to our team via support@trophy-games.com ### 1/5 — Blue Screen *2025-06-20, version 1.3.12* I just got the game and I got to the log in screen, logged in as guest and I just get stuck on a blue screen ### 1/5 — Glitching *2025-06-05, version 1.3.12* The game is glitching—it’s telling me I need $1,000,000 to purchase a new station, but I already have more than that. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-05-22, version 1.3.12* I have downloaded the game and registered but keep on the blue screen stand still ! ### 1/5 — Not worth *2025-05-07* Game is good but the biggest challenge is too much spending over maintenance it's many time more that that train earn also biggest challenge you need to keep spending on global reputation. In real world no government spend for reputation and marketing of railways like flights. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for reaching out with your feedback! I will pass it on to the team for you :) ### 1/5 — I don’t recommend this game *2025-04-21, version 1.3.12* It won’t load game trash ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2025-04-16* It doesn’t even open. It just shows a blue screen all the time.I thought that my network is slow but problem is not that. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Manager ,Sentinels : R/D *2026-07-30, version 1.1.14* Very Importante For serios service business. ### 5/5 — Pennsyyyyy *2026-06-29, version 1.1.14* Cool little game.

Choo chooo ### 5/5 — Bob *2026-05-19, version 1.1.14* Great game ### 5/5 — Super *2026-04-09* Sympa à gérer ### 5/5 — Make time go faster and auto depart *2026-02-26, version 1.1.14* Awesome game but I wish it would auto depart so I don’t have to log on and do it my self ### 5/5 — Big good *2026-02-24, version 1.1.14* ^see above ### 5/5 — Best game *2026-01-03, version 1.1.14* So good ### 5/5 — Five stars *2025-12-04, version 1.3.13* Really good and detailed but hard to progress without buying points and missing a few railway stations in Australia especially Victoria ### 5/5 — The game has so much fun to do *2025-11-05, version 1.3.12* I absolutely love Train Manager very much ### 5/5 — Great game, but you have to commit at the start. 4.5! *2025-10-31, version 1.3.12* Really fun game! Great setup that feels very well paced. Love this game a lot! The only critique I would give is that the learning curve is steep - I started the game off as Latvia for fun (I like playing smaller countries in “conquering games” like this, feels like a challenge and turning the tables), but found it too hard and once you commit, you commit. I restarted as America and it has been infinitely easier. The ability to transfer stars or certain purchases would be great for players. With that, I would put it at a 4.5, but easily a 5! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
