    • “The passenger train was okay, but the jobs or missions are way too short, and it gets boring.”

    • “Horrible! Can't even get into a game and it gives you ads that you can't get out of until you press the back button on your phone. It also gives you ads so much I can't even touch the screen. Seriously, this game sucks!”
