Cartoon Characters -False Advertising
Only playing this game will you discover there are Cartoon Characters you must deal with! Each has personality quirks, including your train crew and office personnel who may not get along with each other! Why? We see childish Spies, Bandits, Saboteurs, more like a Carmen Sandiego game! All negative stereotypes that pop up to taunt you and to bid against you in Auctions. The very Beautiful scenery + trains + music shown in advertising [worth the 2 stars] does NOT mix well with Cartoon Characters! Bad programming still exists! If you hire a Professor, he GIVES you money, and REMOVES research points! Not the reverse! There is Poor Managing of trains and loads. You must go to Train Line setup to see details of your Load orders. The only way out is "Make Change" which often reverts to default settings! Every Train, Every Load! Poor demand info is easily misleading. Signaling is very confusing to set up. The AI characters still cheat and do NOT have to build double track or signals as their trains magically pass through each other! Soon they will surpass your system in track miles and cities covered! The Economic model is poor. A city may say it only uses 0.2 car loads of a good per month. Why build a spur to get wood or cattle if you can sell less than 1 load per month? They WILL buy many loads of goods but then suddenly NOT buy anymore because they stockpiled maybe 20 carloads! Can you wait till they use 0.2 a month before buying more? Ridiculous. They won't offer to sell these goods for you to transport to other cities. Wacky logic. Real Railroads run on ORDERS for goods to transport, not by picking up random stuff and trying to find where to sell them! Was this supposed to be a detailed railroad simulation or a simplified game? Was this to be a realistic historical game or a comical interaction game? Was this to appeal to adults or to kids under 18? Sadly, they put BOTH in a mixed bag! Not recommended if you want railroad management! Railroad Tycoon 1990 was better!
