Train Valley

Played with model trains as a kid? Or just like the zen of building things? Train Valley might be perfect for you! This well-received indie game lets you build a network of trains in four different eras and regions. You get to build in Europe, America, the USSR and Japan, while experiencing major historic events. Make your network crash-free and get your trains to their destination. Or you won't get paid.

Difficult terrain will make for difficult construction, and there are plenty of other challenges to be found in Train Valley. Play in story mode or sandbox; with fifteen types of train, the world is your playground! This casual train simulator/puzzle game is extremely addictive and the gameplay works like a well-oiled machine. Is your network bound to be a train wreck, or will you manage to stay on track?
