Run London Trains! Operate the London Underground, overground lines and National Rails! You can now operate the London Underground and overground lines, as well as National Rail intercity trains connecting London with other cities! This game is packed with the latest information on British railways! The rules are the same as "Tokyo Train! 4." British railways have publicly operated tracks, while electric trains are either privately or publicly operated. This game recreates the scene of trains from many different railway companies running on the same tracks. Therefore, be aware that rival trains may also run on the same tracks. Also, unprofitable trains are subsidized, so try to achieve this. - For Railway Commanders As a train dispatcher, dispatch various trains, including regional and intercity trains, to transport passengers. - Game Objective Transport passengers, collect fares, and aim for maximum operating profits! Profit Calculation Formula ① Variable Fare - ② Travel Time x ③ Number of Passengers - ④ Departure Cost = ⑤ Operating Profit ① Variable Fare: Receive a fare when your train transports passengers to their destination. The fare decreases over time. The fares increase the further to the right a station is located. ② Journey Time: The journey time is displayed above the moving train. The fare you receive when the train transports a passenger to their destination is deducted from the journey time. The faster you transport passengers, the shorter the journey time. ③ Number of Passengers: Each station displays the number of passengers it is serving. ④ Departure Cost: A departure cost is deducted when the train departs. The departure cost is displayed below the departure button. ⑤ Operating Profit: This is the goal of the game. Aim for great results! ・Controls Controls are very simple. Just depart the train at the perfect time. You can operate up to five types of trains. ・Plenty of content More than 30 route maps are available! You can also compete with others using the ranking feature. ・Timetable Feature As with Train Dispatcher! 4, you can view the results of your train operations on a timetable. In addition to pursuing operational profits, you can also enjoy browsing the beautiful timetable. ・Approximately 180MB of storage space It takes up little storage space and doesn't require heavy processing, so it's compatible with older devices. Each game takes just three minutes, so you can enjoy it casually. ・No ads, no in-app purchases There are no in-app purchases. No ads. There's nothing to interfere with your train operations. Just focus on the game. Children can enjoy it safely too. Share your operation results and timetables with other railfans.
Harbor Shift
Read full descriptionHide full description
Run a complete vessel-control shift where every arrival needs a pilot, tug approach, inspection, cargo authorization, and departure clearance. The Harbor Control Desk tracks three live vessel cases at once. Watch individual deadlines, spend tug fuel on approaches, inspect manifests and storm lashings, authorize cargo work, and clear each departure in the correct order. Fog and storms alter findings. Late work accumulates delay, while every decision changes the shift's safety and throughput scores. Close a shift to receive a persistent graded report, then compare past performance in the Reports tab. The separate Operations tab adds cargo contracts, twelve ship routes, weather payouts, specialist hiring, facilities, and multi-shift progression. Features: - Five-stage vessel-control workflow - Concurrent deadlines and resource pressure - Weather-dependent inspection findings - Tug fuel, safety, delay, and throughput metrics - Persistent graded shift reports - Contracts, crew, and facility progression - Offline local save Harbor Shift is an offline single-player management game. There are no accounts, purchases, chat, user-generated content, or cloud saves.
