    Loved this game. So fascinating to see the world around you change with your choices, & to replay & see how things could have gone differently. Replayed several times to get achievements & try different things, & it was great each time. LOVEEE

    Far too short. Pick railroad A or railroad B. It has potential, but the game needed to be much, much longer. Feels more like a kids programming project in highschool, just due to how limited the scope is. The asking price for the 'sequals' is nonsense too. Good idea marred by greed.
