    This game is quite interesting as a train simulation, however a decade old memory leak that has never been resolved will prevent you from playing. This has been well known from wXP and it is still true under w7/8.
    JoWood forums were full of complaints about the bug, Shame to the developer who left the game in this sorry state.
    You have been warned.

  1. The interface is nigh on impenetrable. The system of exploration is ludicrous (the whole map is blacked out at the start, so at first you don't even know where the mountains lie). The scenarios are uninspiring. The combat is pointless and passes practically unnoticed. [PC Zone]

    The aspects it draws on do add a new element to the genre although they do slow down the action, making you work even harder to build your railway. The presentation makes the game feel half complete and the learning curve on the interface is unnecessary and sloppy on the tutorial.

    At the heart of this pretty below average game lies potential that could have made a largely enjoyable business management title.
