"Train Conductor World" is an arcade-style, single-player game with ingenious mechanics and marvelous visuals, accompanied by a good soundtrack. The goal is to control trains and build routes, but the game can be quite grinding and filled with ads. While it has plenty of humor, it also has some bugs that can detract from the overall experience. The game's description merely states "Control trains. Build routes!" which accurately sums up the core gameplay mechanics.

    • “In-game purchases are optional.”

    • “The game is built so that it forces you at some point late in the game to buy packages (microtransactions).”
