Description
Railroad Tycoon 2, making the sequel to a game that easily falls into the "legend" category is, well... exciting! Of course, it's also a fertilizer carload of work. An intricate cargo web and a dynamic financial environment set the stage for your chance at showing the world what a true robber baron is capable of doing. This isn't your mother's old 0-4-0 Grasshopper! The ability to buy and sell stocks, schedule train routes, optimize operations, lay rail, build stations, and take over companies make Railroad Tycoon 2 a strategist's dream. Meanwhile, an intuitive interface, beautiful terrain, detailed rolling stock, and attractive buildings are sure to please the most dedicated train enthusiasts.

Is all this too much? Then let your manager take over, and just sweat the big stuff! Hire and fire managers, each with talents and abilities far beyond those of digital men, to help run your company. You can also invite 15 of your closest friends to contest your title as a railroad tycoon in a real-time struggle for power. Legends are made to be lived up to, and Railroad Tycoon 2 is all that and a head of steam.

Trains are fun

I like watching videos of Trains, While being on the Train, While playing Ttis game. This review may have an element of Bias.

A baige classic

Greate game. Easy UI that ages surprisingly well. I do recommend going over the manual and strategy guide. There is a surprising amount of complexity under its unassuming cover. It's not a big read and when you use these tools correctly, you'll get instant satisfaction seeing your company work efficiently. As a child I did enjoy business sims and trains. But the complexity at the time was over my head. But now, I feel mature enough to take this well-crafted game.

Good Old Railroad Company Game

Time really flies with this game: planning where to lay tracks and build stations, size of the stations and their services and with harder levels you can also build other infrastructure around your stations. Games like this are not made anymore...
