### 1/5 — Rewards rips off

*2026-08-22, version 4.40.0*

You keep asking for a review, here it is. A great game sullied by rewards not being fulfilled, leading to frustration and a feeling of being ‘ripped off’. And, don’t try and contact “support” because you cannot. There is no support !!!!

### 1/5 — Not A Simulator game!!!

*2026-08-21, version 4.40.0*

Tap and wait game

### 5/5 — Great Game..but inaccurate age rating

*2026-08-16, version 4.39.0*

This game is very good. I honestly must say I like the jobs but it’s got an inaccurate age rating. I think it should be 9+ instead of 13+.

### 5/5 — This game is awesome!

*2026-08-13, version 4.39.0*

You should go ahead and play it. I’d say it’s good.

### 3/5 — 育成がキツい

*2026-08-12*

列車の育成には育成対象と同じレア度のギアが必要になる(これはわかる)それとは別に最低レア度のギアもソレなりの数を要求される。そのためデイリーなどでもらえるギアガチャがある意味最低レア度が当たりだったりする。また、育成に必要なゲーム内資金(コイン)もまぁまぁ必要であり、無課金では育成が非常に困難。イベントやガチャでせっかく最高レア度の列車を手に入れても育成がままならず使えない列車を集めている感覚になる。イベントで限定列車(イベント中は荷物等材料が増えるバフがかかる事が多い)を先に手に入れて少し育成すれば多少有利に進めるが、イベントが終わったらバフも無くなるので中途半端に育てた列車が生まれるだけになる。もっと育成しやすいやようにして欲しい。コレでは頑張って列車を手に入れるモチベーションが上がらないです。

**Developer response:** こんにちは！貴重なフィードバックありがとうございます。列車の育成に関するご意見、特にギアやゲーム内資金のバランスについてのご感想、大変参考になります。いただいたコメントはしっかりとチームに共有し、ゲーム体験向上のための参考にさせていただきます。今後ともよろしくお願いします！

### 4/5 — Game frame rate drops

*2026-08-11, version 4.39.0*

The game started dropping frames after the last update; the game designers, please look into this.

### 1/5 — Stole my permanent dispatcher

*2026-08-08, version 4.39.0*

I started the game with 5 dispatchers and earned the ability to purchase an extra permanent dispatcher, which gave me 6.  I can add a temporary dispatcher for an hour by watching an ad, which gave me 7. Today I started with 5 permanent dispatchers.  Where did my 6th dispatcher go? I’m deleting this game.

### 5/5 — Train Game

*2026-08-07, version 4.39.0*

Very fun game! 10/10!

### 4/5 — Please read this if you are from Pixelfederation:

*2026-08-06, version 4.29.0*

I love this game no, sorry I loved this game. Can you please let me back in. If you can I will resend this with positive words and 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Steep price hikes

*2026-07-28, version 4.38.0*

I’ve played this game for years, but I’m about ready to delete it. First, as others have said, to have any chance of being competitive you have to spend money - sometimes a lot of it. And they have just implemented a huge price hike. It appears to be at least a 20% hike on a fully established game. Which brings me to my second point. There’s very little new to the game. They repeat events and jobs with great regularity. Even when they introduce a new region, it’s really just rehashing the old. 

I’ve been playing for over 5 years, but I’m tired of paying for the old game over and over again.
