    Users praise the game’s original soundtrack as a primary reason for purchase, valuing its quality and uniqueness. Some suggest that officially releasing the music assets to support related projects like OpenTTD would be beneficial. Overall, the music is highly appreciated and considered a standout feature.

    • “The only legitimate reason to buy this version is if you really want a strictly legal copy of the files for original graphics and music to transplant into OpenTTD.”
  • graphics

    The graphics are low-resolution and dated, primarily appealing to those interested in the original visuals for use with OpenTTD. While not impressive by modern standards, they retain nostalgic value and contribute to the building experience.

    • “Obviously low-resolution graphics and all that, but great building fun nonetheless.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users criticize the monetization as a blatant cash grab, noting that the game focuses heavily on pushing purchases, especially within the intro and exit menus where players spend most of their time.

    • “Terrible cash grab, the only things upgraded for the modern age are the intro and exit menu, and that's where you'll spend the most time.”
