The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing dissatisfaction over the recent updates that introduced a story mode, which they find less engaging and filled with bugs. Users frequently report issues such as incomplete mission progress, disappearing controls, and frustrating loading screens that hinder gameplay. While some appreciate the graphics and creativity of the story, a significant number of players long for the simplicity and enjoyment of the game's earlier versions, suggesting a return to offline missions and a focus on realistic train simulation rather than narrative-driven gameplay.
“The story mode is superb but as others have mentioned, there is a gap after the 11th chapter which makes us unable to move further.”
“Amazing and excellent story mode, just awesome and thrilling. Best mobile train simulator and add more stories also.”

“In this version, the storytelling is the worst.”
“You guys literally created a lot of mess introducing this story mode; earlier it was more simple to play and now every story ends with advertisements. There's a lot of lag, and assets are not placed properly, causing the screen to hang sometimes.”
“The game is good, but the irritating and negative point of this game is the story mode.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming presence of ads that disrupt gameplay and frustrate the experience. Many players feel that the game prioritizes ad revenue over user enjoyment, with frequent ads required to progress and in-game purchases deemed excessively priced. Overall, while the gameplay itself is appreciated, the aggressive monetization tactics have led to widespread dissatisfaction and calls for a reduction in ads.
“No ads are shown during the journey, there is frequent train traffic, there are crossings of trains, junctions, double engines, only engines, Vande Bharat, and many more.”
“In-app purchases aren't enough for you, and if you are keeping ads, then make sure to have them in limit.”
“Developers, please fix this as I also have this error while unlocking other stations which says free, but I have to watch an ad to unlock; unfortunately, no ads are available.”
“But now this game is all about ads and ads only.”
“The game is definitely a good one, but there are a lot of ads.”
“Full of advertisements and the amount of time taken to watch these is more than the time we play this game... uninstalling the game, useless worthless game just for advertisement, nothing else.”

The gameplay of the game is generally praised for its engaging features and realistic train mechanics, appealing to both children and adults.

“It just freezes and never responds; you have to close the game and then start it again, and it freezes again after 5 minutes of gameplay, even happens with low graphics.”
“After this 4th anniversary update, everything is great but there is one big problem: the game stutters for a few seconds every 10 seconds, which makes the gaming experience totally horrible.”

“Very buggy performance, running into bugs every now and then.”
“Game crashes all the time. This has the worst optimized game I have ever seen. This game is a nightmare; do not play this. It crashes every now and then, has an infinitely long loading time, an infinite red signal, no lighting inside coaches, sudden frame drops, none of the controls visible to use in between levels, and is full of ads. If you click the back button, it seems like you're clicking on the play ads button, and it happens before starting the level too.”
“I have a phone with an SD845, 6GB RAM, and 128GB internal memory, and I'm running it on low graphics mode, yet it seems to have such performance issues.”
