    I mean sure, the game is not ground breakin in anyway. And once you get the hang of connecting the stations and the combinations of goods....the game is not very challenging anymore.

    But I had good fun with it. Its not so much a sandbox game just like TTD. Its more an objective based game. Where you have to achieve certain goals within a time limit. And those come with their own

    Overal, solid. But...sometimes tedious. Hence the 7-8 rating is well deserved.

    It is a really good transport simulation game.

    The graphics are beautiful and it is more than enough for games like that. But, what is most important for me, room for strategical decisions, some challenge as you learn, and also re-playability (with generation of maps in free/sandbox mode) are also there. Of course, there are some simplifacations (as almost in all other modern games),

    Of course, there are some simplifacations (as almost in all other modern games), and for me, some things could be more complicated or difficult. But anyway, you take on decisions about routes, engines, products, what cities to grow first etc. Also you will be dealing with traffic which rises quite fast. And building tracks, lots of tracks and placing singals and make everything optimized. Maps are big enough, there are about 20-25 products in each timeline (and some different ones in addons), which is also somewhat enough, AI is quie challenging to play (if you will not exploit it ;) but it's up to you, how to play).

    So, while there is sitll some room for improvements (maybe it is more just some tweaks here and there), the game is quite good in its current state, it is somewhat addictive and challenging. Maybe I do not recommend to buy it at current full price, but with decent discount it is totally worth it.

    Not as good as Railroad Tycoon, but nothing can compete with childhood memories :-)
    Railway Empire is fun to play and has a good balance between tough and easy objectives.

    Railway Empire is already a well crafted railway management game, however this Complete Collection brings all the additional content in a single package.

    Railway Empire follows the footsteps of Railroad Tycoon and also adds a new content with fresh new ideas –all packed in a comprehensible way and elegant style. [Issue#283]

    An entertaining tycoon which has a trouble with the confused build-up and, above all, the confusing interface, which come up especially in later stages of the game. But its core is incredibly entertaining and carefully tuned.
