LOVE THESE GAMES

I love all the pocket games and tiny tower but after reading other reviews i agree with others that pocket boats should be a thing that would be sick

My game severely glitched

Hey, I don’t know what happened but I got a bunch of crates, opened them rapid fire, built a bunch of new trains and now my game is all fried. My trains aren’t moving from the stations on the map screen, and now journeys that should only take a few minutes can take up to four hours. Please fix

Love this game ….with one exception

I downloaded this game about a month ago and have enjoyed it immensely. It doesn’t cost a lot of money, (you don’t need to) and fun to play. I enjoy the strategy of deciding what cars to take to what station for the best profit. The exception is that there is a frequent freezing or lag in the game often when you send off your train. Sometimes too when a horn signals that one of your other trains has come to their station. The horn signals and were shut down for maybe a minute or two. It can make the game so annoying! Apparently this seems to be an issue with the latest update. Love to hear the response from the developer.

Relaxing Management

New update has caused occassional lag spikes when departing trains, very annoying considering the game worked flawlessly for nearly a decade. The addition of video offers in the job list now make the advertisement more intrusive than before, because having a red badge permanently visible is a small annoyance that can at least be ignored (and the optional ads being by a periodic free gift makes sense anyways) plus the already existing optional ads being in an optional menu means that it can be ignored. The new ads button being in a game menu accessed very frequently seems greedy in my opinion. I played it in elementary school and now playing it again, the core gameplay is like ai remember it being. Getting further into the game, I am constantly balancing potential profit with flexibility. Nice to play a game that takes skill to optimize and doesn't enforce hours of loading bars, and even considering that their aggressive change in advertising, it is still better than many other developers who are more aggressive and lack gameplay depth.

This game is awesome!

It’s so fun, I could play for hours. The team is super kind and they gave me a free Pumpkin Steamer and Fuel Car. I thinks it’s part of an event but still awesome. Definitely recommend this game!

Amazing game

The game is amazing, addictive and fun. The issue is that once a bunch of trains are going, it lags. Do not close the game or it resets back a bit. Still amazing.

Wonderful customer service

I’ve played this game for years. I had purchases in my old save that didn’t transfer over to my new device. They were able to credit my new save back my bux and coins.

Synced day-night sequence, pretty please 🙏🏼

It would make this even more immersive, plus it looked immaculate in Pocket Planes. Other than that it’s great across the board 👍🏼

Exceptional title

Hello, if you plan on installing this app I can easily assure you, that you won’t spend time wasted. Since May 6th 2014, I’ve been playing this cute little train game, and it still continues to update. For a solid decade I’ve had a perfect and simple train sim on my phone that has some of the most memorable and cutest music I’ve ever heard. You won’t need to purchase ANYTHING regarding progression, it just takes a little bit longer if you don’t know what to do. You can take over the world with lil pixel trains and never regret it!
