In that regard, they can be reasonably forgiving, as long as this simulated company of yours doesn't go bankrupt, and you can usually pause them and play at your own pace.
Some of those have end dates, others have technology research goals, in most you need to supply cities with a certain amount of resources that they need to grow.Īlmost all of them involve managing a transport enterprise that earns money by transporting goods of various sorts and ensuring that supply chains are uninterrupted (raw materials to factories, goods to the cities, usually with plenty of steps along the way). The original is playable even on integrated graphics on lower settings, although I don't think that's officially supported.
The lack of goals (apart from the somewhat lukewarm campaigns) or of any real competition makes it more of a sandbox building game than anything else, though. There's something satisfying about getting a somewhat complex system of cargo transport working. I've played the original quite a bit, and it's fun up to a point. Many reviews seem to say the sequel doesn't offer that much new in terms of gameplay. I haven't played Transport Fever 2, partially because my laptop's a potato and partially because I already have the original Transport Fever. The game also seems to be available on GOG.com, although at least one review says the Linux version there is much older than what's available on Steam, so perhaps the publisher doesn't care about non-Steam sales that much. > And you can't buy it outside of Steam, but I can't help it if the developer doesn't want my money directly. I've also heard of Cities in Motion and Railway Empire, though haven't played them myself.
Mashinky () is an indie game that mostly focuses on trains, but also is in 3D and looks pretty good, like Transport Fever, though some people say that the economy in the game is a tad odd Simutrans () is another transport simulation game, which has a lot of different tilesets, but the actual gameplay of which seems to be a bit less enjoyable than that of OpenTTD and others, though it's also freeware Some other similar games that people might enjoy: That said, OpenTTD is also amazing because it's free, has a lot of lovely content and definitely provides plenty of replay value, in addition to not requiring a beefy computer (unlike the aforementioned game). The best game in the "transport simulation" genre that i've played would probably be Transport Fever 2 ( ), because it not only looks better when compared to everything else out there, but the UI also feels really streamlined.
