Epic
Very fun
a casual game thats not casual
monochrome and lack variety
Great but one thing
Great but endless lines pls it’s super hard with limited lines
The plus is the Apple Arcade version
I don’t like this game but I would recommend mini moterways Also anyone who wonders what the plus is it is an Apple Arcade version with no ads or in-app purchases
Please fix basic problems!
So many on here have already pointed out issues with the UI, including; -text on screen that covers the rail system, leaving the player blind for a potentially fatal amount of time -while you can zoom in and out, there is no easy way to set the view back to it’s default position. I spend half the time trying to get the screen to get back to default view, which is the only way to actually move train lines and cars -why can’t you add more cities? Unfortunately, once an app has been out for a while, developers move on to other things, leaving the core product with annoying bugs that no one will actually care to resolve. No resolution, no evolution.
i love it!
so I unlocked every city in the game, including my city I live in and it’s pretty fun. I really like it download this game if you want to build your own metro
Game doesn’t end
I’ve had a game running for like 6 days. Stations stop appearing after a while so if your lines are balanced you reach a point where it can just run forever. Which is really boring. I’ll probably just force a loss and then uninstall.
Great performance and visual on iPadOS, but offers a smaller map than on mobile phones.
This game performs and looks great on iPad Pro. However I noticed that the game map is smaller compared to when I play this game of my galaxy phone. Why does the map have a more smaller square shape map on iPad than then rectangle bigger shape on mobile phones? If I’m playing creative, I would much rather play it with a bigger map so I can expand stations and lines.
Love it on mobile, but mediocre on iOS
The UI just doesn’t really work on iOS. Everything is too small, even on a Pro Max. I keep missing traffic issues because animations are too subtle once the map expands. Also, why does it not honour dark theme? Basic quality of life improvement right there. Simply not enjoyable.
Lots of Problems
This game is fun, really fun. But, there are a lot of issues that kill the fun produced by this game. 1: Save Problems When I exited a creative mode game, and attempted to re-enter, all of my progress made previously was lost and I am unsure how to restore or recover it. 2: Can't Place In-Bounds In the same creative mode game, I was attempting to place stations (on the New York City map) on the top right corner of the map, after multiple attempts, I was unable to. 3: Grid Issue (sorry for poor syntax) In the same creative mode game, I was placing stations on the right side of the map (where Brooklyn and Queens are respectively) when the circles around stations prohibiting the placement of more stations disappeared. Despite those areas disappearing, and the grid now reappearing in those areas, I was unable to place stations in those areas. Please fix these issues or take time to review this.
I love it…
I love it but the 1 thing that got me is the lines. I’ve seen these before, a turn around, so let’s say you’re ending the line. You want a loop so a turnaround using stations. So the end of it can go to the next station that’s already connected.
Cute Game, Horrendous Controls
Played a couple times and was really enjoying it, but if you try to ever reroute the tracks you might as well throw your phone out the window. It always does the most backwards thing from what you really want. Want to remove a connection between two stations? How about we just make the track circle back! Try again! How about we remove the entire line! Try to add it back? Haha, we will just move all the other adjacent lines on top. Want to adjust a path of a track? How about you just pick up a random train and we’ll let you figure out where it came from… Fix your idiotic control scheme and I’ll play it again, otherwise it ain’t worth the electricity…
Fun but difficult
Overcrowding sometimes happens too fast to do anything about it. I wonder if at times available train capacity is just not keeping up with the rate of new passengers being generated, regardless of how you deploy them.
Challenges built without checks
Let’s put cities across four different land masses on level 3, before you get a second bridge, guaranteeing a game over. Let’s keep doing that. This has potential, but the game needs to have better AI to check if the required number of bridges are available before crossing land masses.
I wonder is there any different between arcade version and that normal version
thanks
this game is so awesome
relaxing & so addictive
controller support needed

Good Game
It's a very good game! For people who don't want to buy the original Mini Metro+ for 4.00$ it's a great one, basically the same! However, for such good programming and developing, i'm giving four stars, for it's a meer copy of Mini Metro. (nothing bad about that!) and that it's honestly confusing at times for me.
Ehhhh
It was fun for about…1 min and it was like really worse then there other game i recommend a different game like there act only game/Mini metro
Cute game
I’ve been playing for about a year, great idle/casual game on low speed. I’ve never been able to get more than 500 passengers moved on any level, that part is disappointing to me.
Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
This sequel is soooooooo good this one is the best
Really boring and not very engaging
It’s not fun and has a very bad goal. I’m just supposed to drag things to there and watch trains. Def 1 star
Elegantly Designed Game
Mini Metro is so elegant in its design—both aesthetically and sonically. Problem solving and resource management are its main themes. The number of different cities available to play gives Mini Metro much-needed variety. Fun, relaxing, and at times frustrating, this game has provided me with a lot of entertainment. Because the maps/levels are small in comparison to the cities they emulate—and because you’re only given limited resources—it is extremely hard to reach scores ≥2,000 points on many of them. Duplicate “circle” stations has frustrated a lot of players (including myself), but if you keep in mind that there’s no “beating” this game, then you realize that each game is just an exercise in the aforementioned skills of problem solving, resource management, and patience. No two games are alike because of random generation, keeping the game from being too monotonous. Attention to small details are very important—as is relaxing and not taking it too seriously. Finally, I’d love to see a sequel with the same simple graphic design featuring larger maps, new game parameters, and a little more variety in both management options and train, track, and terrain designs. 8/10 ☆
Tedious
Confusing UI. No good explanation of goals. Horrible UI on small phone screens.
Please
Please let me play this on my backbone
Great Game
This is probably the hardest game I’ve ever played, so much interesting strategy involved.
I DON’T GET IT
Mini motorway I understood, enjoyed it but eventually deleted it because it was so challenging. This game.....I’m totally lost!
It’s a great game and can get into it very quickly, but we need branch lines
It is a good game but yes I do feel like we do need branch lines and yeah I feel like maybe control support because if you use this phone just pretty much give up but it is a view, relaxing and fun games but definitely doesn’t need a branch line because sometimes like you have like like a line that’s like strip then like a station to close to it you can’t control you have a whole new line New York City subway add the letters please because then it could go on longer, but did they feel the most fun game and don’t buy many Metro with money by this one because that other one’s a scam you have to pay a dollar
Terrible game
There is so much pressure on you because you have to delete all of your other tracks just to get one new one, and I have encountered a game similar to this one and it is way better. You can keep building forever.
…
i love mini motorways and i *think* this game is just as great it’s just that i don’t understand it… i’m sure the game is great and all but the tutorial makes no sense to me so i can’t even play it
Please add Los Angeles
This game is amazingly all the maps and systems are perfect but I think you guys should add Los Angeles. They have hade a metro for a while and I think it would be cool to play. thanks bye
Love the original but this I don’t get
What is the difference between Mini Metro and Mini Metro +? No idea, literally everything looks the same to me, idk why it’s worth getting Apple Arcade subscription for this. Really confused why this even exists!?
Really good
It's a really good, but I'm kinda bored with how easy some of the levels are (I finished Melbourne in 4 in-game weeks)so please add harder cities
Editing is infuriating
Editing stops is infuriatingly painful when there are many lines going to a stop on an iPhone. If you have more than one line at a stop, moving the line you want in order to react quickly is almost impossible, as there is no way to pause the game. If you end up moving the wrong line, there is no quick way to undo it either.
Could be more fun but
This is one of the best games out there but it makes no sense to rush the player to connect stations without the proper materials to do so. Nowhere in the world does a station get built with no tracks, and people are expected to be picked up before the tracks are laid. Leave everything just the way it is but stop with the persistent addition of stations before the player has had a chance to tweak and optimize what’s already there. It makes me abandon the game. You can still place them randomly at different places, for the challenge, but not at regular intervals. Just have a prompt “build new station”. Makes no sense to sometimes have 4 stations to connect across a river without having bridges…. Takes the fun out of the whole concept. What’s the point.
Love this!
I would honestly pay the original price of what Mini Metro was! This is worth 5 bucks, and I would gladly pay that instead of this subscription for the Apple Arcade! Please release this on normal App Store for purchase! It is a must!
No game save, what is this, the 80’s?
I really like this game, I do. However: I expect to be able to save and reload any long play game from any map at any time in any order. The lack of game save files/slots makes playing the game for a quick session here and there impossible as progress is more often than not lost when I come back to the game. Invariably the resume has been lost when I come back to the game loosing all progress. This is a major failure with minimotorways+ too. If you start the game and see the Apple Arcade animation, all progress lost every time. This is a long play game (as is mini motorways+), no game save was something we had to put up with in the 80’s and even then we got game save on Zelda; it’s a basic game feature that is expected and no game should release without it. Please add a full save and load feature, it’ll remove this constant frustration and make the game fun again!
THE GAME IS GREAT, BUT THERES IS A BUG WITH EXTRA CARS
When you are playing and pass a week successfully they give you extra cars for you to attach to the trains, but 70% of the time you don’t get that extra car so it’s more difficult for you to get those extra passengers.
I Hate Circles
This game has so much potential. I understand wanting to add in a bit of a challenge for players, but spawning in 6 circles in a line… C’mon now. This is a straight up flaw in the design of the game.
Visually confusing
I love mini motorways and decided to give mini metro+ a go as well. Unfortunately, I found the game very visually confusing. The use of shapes needing to get to separate destinations was good in theory, but it’s often difficult to even tell what shapes they are, which train they’re on, or where they need to go. You often have to sacrifice being able to tell what going on visually for efficiency which results in train lines overlapping and being unable to tell where they connect or where they go. I believe it would make more sense to move colors around (like you do in mini motorways) and have the trains be numbered or patterned. However that’s just my personal opinion and the game has a lot of potential. If you aren’t one who has trouble with visual processing, you might enjoy the game more than I did.
I love this game
I’ve read other reviews where people get very frustrated with this game, but that isn’t the case for me. The puzzle has a simple object: get the passengers from point A to point B (or C). As time goes on, you get more stations, more passengers, and more supplies to grow your metro. When it’s simple it isn’t boring, and when it is chaotic it isn’t stressful. Compared to others on the leaderboard, I am awful at this game, but I still feel a sense of accomplishment when I lose. I’m aware that how I feel about this game won’t be how everyone feels, but many would agree with me that anyone could enjoy this game. I hope you found this review helpful.
Time waster
Utter trash
I think I found a bug
In the São Paulo map when a station is overcrowding when you have a line that is going to that overcrowding station and the train is empty why did it pass? Even though the line to that station was not hollow. But the game is still good.
fun but most my score
played for hours, reached 30K. Then score dropped down to zero when playing again later. Happened again when reached to 50K. disappointed to do all that effort then later lose all the score. Also theres seem to be a limit of playing since it stops creating new stations and all they give you is either more cars or tunnels. Gets boring after that.
Good
Decent, fairly simplistic little game. I just don't get it. No matter what I do, I can't seem to fix an overly busy station. I get to a few hundred at best and then it's just over. The tutorial doesn't tell you anything about how to deal with it when it gets busy. I tried deleting all my tracks, laying out new tracks better organized, and it still ends quickly. I suppose if someone does figure it out more quickly this could be fun, but I can't get anywhere with it. Uninstalled.
Support
Controller support on the mobile version would be amazing, like the pc version
Stuck
My game is stuck on the syncing with iCloud page for some reason. I tried reinstalling the app and the issue still persists
4 stars but slight Recommendation about controllers
Mini Metro+ is an incredibly well-designed game with a minimalist aesthetic and addictive gameplay that keeps you coming back for more. It’s a great blend of strategy and creativity, and the various maps provide plenty of challenges. However, I’m giving it 4 stars because I feel it could be even better with controller support, such as Backbone compatibility. This would make the experience even smoother and more enjoyable, especially for longer play sessions. Overall, still a fantastic game worth downloading!
Frustrated
It’s a good game but there is no way to save a game. So if you want to go back to another city, because you had an idea that worked in a newer city, you’re screwed. And it would be nice to have things like other games offer - a undo button, a way to see how many trains/cars there are per line, maybe give hints as to way a certain layout seems to be stuck at a range of people, etc. good game, but lacking in 2023 options….definitely feels more like 1990s.
Mini motorways
Like it’s sister game, mm, this game starts too slow and ends too fast. Navigation is an improvement, but the tutorial does not help. Pretty though. And so, so satisfying.
