"Train Empire" offers a strategy experience of depth and intrigue. The player is presented the task of connecting cities by strategically placing railway lines from one location to another, as well as managing the railway network where the trains' schedules must run like clockwork for delays could incur hefty fines. Starting off with the simple instructive of linking two towns and just a few trains waiting for departure "Train Empire" expands into an immense and compelling chain of routes and interconnections.
