The gameplay is praised for its realistic train mechanics, where trains continue to roll until brakes are applied, adding a layer of authenticity. Players have the freedom to create their own layouts using included assets, which can lead to varied experiences, though some may find new layouts initially feel empty or barren.
“The trains are realistic and look amazing. They even have the mechanic where if you stop applying power, they keep rolling for what feels like forever until you apply the brakes to finally stop. Then, when you apply power to start moving again, you might forget that the brakes are still on, which is why it's not moving.”
“This game allows you to create what you want with the included assets, making the gameplay experience unique and customizable.”
“The gameplay feels empty and barren, as it relies heavily on the player's creativity with the included assets.”
“The game lacks engaging mechanics, making it difficult to stay invested in the gameplay experience.”
“There is a significant lack of direction in the gameplay, which can leave players feeling lost and unmotivated.”
