Description
Train Fever includes the original game plus the FREE USA DLC!

Train Fever is a railroad-focused business simulation game. In other words, it's a modern-day Transport Tycoon with procedural content and a sophisticated city simulation.

It’s the year 1850, and there are great times ahead! Establish a transport company and be its manager. Build infrastructure such as railways and stations, purchase transportation vehicles and manage lines. Fulfill the people’s needs and watch cities evolve dynamically.

Train Fever runs on an engine specifically developed for this game. The engine has a great innovative scope and is specialized in procedural content and urban simulation. A key point is the fact that there is no grid that game objects have to be aligned to, allowing for a great degree of freedom.

USA DLC

With the USA DLC, a complete American game mode is added to Train Fever. Equivalent to the original European game mode, the player starts in 1850 and experiences more than 150 years of railroad history. More than 50 realistic American vehicles including trains, buses, streetcars and trucks are included.

To make the American experience complete, landscape and towns are modified as well. Wild West stylized American towns spread in a desert landscape and wait for a transport tycoon to be connected to the world. Also, environment elements like trees, streets and the sky have been adapted.

All vehicles are realistic. Models and textures have been developed by using blueprints and photographs of the original vehicles. As a result, the USA DLC depicts quite a piece of American railroad and transportation history.

The USA DLC has been developed in close collaboration with the modding community. We are excited that modders have contributed more than 15 vehicles. It’s great to see such an active modding community. To further support these activities, together with the release of the USA DLC modding support is significantly extended.

Unengaging and simplistic

The simplicity of the economic aspects of this game combined with lack of documentation and a clunky interface means that this is in no way a contender to lift the heritage from games such as Transport Tycoon and the Railroad Tycoon series.

decent but very simple

If you know and like Transport Tycoon, Locomotion or even openTDD or simutrans then DO NOT BUY this game. Train Fever is lovely & does offer decent 3D graphics and freeform road/rails/terrain but everything else is just the same or way cut down... in a nutshell: transport tycoon for the dumb.

Barebones Game

The whole game feels like they have done the absolute minimum get a product out of the door, route planning building roads and railways are all complete pains in the neck

Never Really Optimized

Lots to like about the game, and the trains look great, especially with the dozens of mods out there. Major problem is that each month ends with a full one second freeze as all the costs are applied to your network and the landscape lights up with red dollar signs, floating skywards. Really breaks the immersion and flow. Windows 8 works better than 10 - which is unplayable with that freeze.
