  • grinding7 mentions

While some acknowledge a degree of fun in the grind, the overall sentiment leans towards it being overly laborious and unenjoyable.

    • “The game is very hard, and if you stop, the train doesn't move at all. Maintenance is very expensive, and the train overheats too often. You use more than you gain, and it's hard to get up hills; you need a lot of sand and coolant. Ultimately, it takes hours to make small progress, and loading is tedious because you're being timed for a meager reward that you earn in an hour of play.”
