* NO subscription and NO annoying nag screens. Works OFFLINE. City Train Simulator is a realistic 3D simulator where you’ll become a real commuter train driver. Drive modern and classic trains, each of which is faithfully recreated in 3D: working instruments, control levers, signals, and the braking system. Your task is to drive commuter trains along the tracks connecting the metropolis with its suburbs and outlying stations. Picking up and dropping off passengers, stopping precisely at the platform, and adhering to the schedule and traffic signals - that’s what makes this simulator a real challenge. Different game modes are available in the game: you will be able to drive the train as a driver, and also take the role of a passenger to make an unforgettable journey through all available stations. In addition, players will be able to choose between free mode and exciting missions, while striving to improve the physical parameters of the train to achieve maximum speed and improve their commuter train driving skills. In addition, you'll be able to drive the train in several cities, including NEW YORK and LONDON, with more cities to come in the future updates. Game Features: * Dozens of kilometers of suburban tracks with detailed stations. * Several types of commuter trains - each with its own handling characteristics. * A realistic driver's cab with interactive elements (3D view from the driver's window). * A reward system for maintaining speed limits, smooth braking, and announcing the current stop. * Fully offline - take the controls anytime. Step into the role of a train driver and hone your skills in our realistic commuter train simulator! Transport passengers, open and close the doors at stations, use the train’s horn, and enjoy realistic train physics. Become the one who transports thousands of passengers every day. City Train Simulator is an addictive adventure. Discover the world of commuter rail - just you, the tracks, and the whistle of your electric train.

Prepare for landing, or prepare for absolute airline chaos! Welcome to Dear Pilot, the ultimate mobile airline-chaos survival game where every flight is a race against time, physics, and a cascade of critical emergencies. Can you manage the cabin, keep the passengers buckled, secure loose cargo, and pilot the cockpit to ensure a safe arrival? CHOOSE YOUR MANIFEST Build your own risk and reward contract for each flight. Select your route, passenger profile, and cargo type. High-risk contracts promise massive career payouts, but they also bring severe weather, volatile payloads, and unpredictable emergencies. DUAL-ROLE GAMEPLAY Switch roles on the fly! Walk the cabin floor as a crew member to serve passenger requests, buckle up nervous fliers during severe turbulence, and strap down loose cargo before it crashes through the hull. Need to stabilize the flight? Switch to the cockpit in first-person view to adjust the throttle, center the horizon, and override autopilot errors. SURVIVE CASCADING EMERGENCIES One bad problem can quickly turn into five. Grab your tools and race to fix critical incidents before deadlines expire: • Extinguish electrical engine fires in the galley. • Walk out onto the wing to clear dangerous ice accumulation. • Secure escaped live animal cargo running wild in the aisles. • Manage cabin pressure loss and decompression before passengers are ejected! • Evade bird strikes and maintain flight path coordinates under heavy wind load. DEAR PILOT ACADEMY First time flying? Complete the penalty-free Dear Pilot Academy! Learn the controls step-by-step from passenger boarding and cargo belt loading to flight controls and incident management. CAREER PROGRESSION Earn career cash, track your completed shifts, and try to beat your personal best payout on the most dangerous route manifests.
