About

Train Fever is a railroad-focused business simulation game. In other words, it's a modern-day Transport Tycoon with procedural content and a sophisticated city simulation.

"It’s the year 1850, and there are great times ahead! Establish a transport company and be its manager. Build infrastructure such as railways and stations, purchase transportation vehicles and manage lines. Fulfill the people’s needs and watch cities evolve dynamically.

Train Fever runs on an engine specifically developed for this game. The engine has a great innovative scope and is specialized in procedural content and urban simulation. A key point is the fact that there is no grid that game objects have to be aligned to, allowing for a great degree of freedom.Features

Train Fever reviews and comments

Translated by
Microsoft from Deutsch
Foreword: I have been looking for a "Successor" to Railroad tycoon for a long time, as it has become too old for me. In my Game Collection, however, many Economic And CitySims do not find a decent Economic Sim ala RTycoon. After a long time of thinking, I bought Train Fever in the Sale. After all, the Reviews are very divided. I have no regrets about this Act! Game: It took me a short Time to get involved. The Hod and menu are very minimal. You have everything in view with movable Pop-ups. ES is and will NOT Be a Railroad tycoon And is no Substitute. However, Train Fever offers a Lot of Content: From Horse-drawn Carriages to the French TGV, all important Vehicles of the Era are represented. It's Fun to see the Industries grow, because you just transport everyone down their Fingers so that the cities grow. Graphic: The Graphic Is surprisingly very Detailed in Love with detail and runs very chick and Lag-free. Why many complain about the Performence remains a Mystery to me. My Pc packs it at a constant 60fps. Well... Overished, a 200km Track queer through a large Map makes the Game sweat. DLC: Here you get a full DLC with everything in it. Actually, I think it's a Cheekiness that my Hard earned money is being devalued here by not having to spend it on a complete DLC. No seriously, the whole Game on Ami style. 8/10

A supplementary Note in advance: I have been working for Urban Games, the Developer of Train Fever, since September 2015. The Review was created almost a Year before this Engagement and Accordingly reflects my personal Opinion as a player and YouTuber at the time and not as a (Co-present) developer. ---------Train Fever is certainly not a Transport Tycoon Successor and that is a good thing. Because it goes its own and innovative Ways, especially in the Way goods and Passengers are transported here and thus also presents transport simulation veterans with many Challenges. A great Deal of attention has been paid into The design, especially with the Models. And even if it still seems a bit unround in some places, for Example due to missing Level Crossings and some barren landscape, the Developers have already proved during the beta phase that they put a lot of Work into the Product, also listen to player Wishes and themselves After Release, Patches and content updates are released on an ongoing basis. Unfortunately, most reviews forget that one of the Main Features of Train Fever is Modability. This has been so heralded Since the Financing Phase on Gambitious and has nothing to do with what some so snippeting as "the Community will judge it already" from various other Developers. Quite the Opposite is from the Community-and I can speak for many here – so desired and is praised in relevant Forums in the highest Tones. All in all, Train Fever Is a beautiful First Work of Urban Games, was developed not in the silent Comb but with and for the Fans of such Games and has definitely earned that transport simulation joy strike here! Fittingly, I recommend my Videos on YouTube.
