User Reviews

Players praise the game’s core appeal and longevity, but report repeated, widespread problems: trains get stuck and won’t dispatch, performance lags and crashes, and updates are perceived as monetization‑driven and disruptive. Support is seen as weak, with hacks and unresolved glitches adding to frustration. Overall sentiment is mixed to negative, despite a loyal fan base and occasional positive notes about new features.

Pros

Long-standing appeal and nostalgia; many players have invested years into building cities.
The trains feature update is noted as an interesting addition by some players, adding new gameplay elements.
Affection for the game is evident (❤️) and grateful messages reinforce continued player interest.

Cons

Train system bugs cause trains to get stuck, dispatch failures, and station lockups across multiple reviews.
Lag, freezing, loading screens, and overall performance issues persist after updates.
Updates and monetization changes are viewed as greedy or degrade the gameplay, with increased spending pressure and pay-to-win concerns.
Poor support and response to issues; reports of ignoring communications and unresolved glitches/hacking.
System overload from frequent updates and ads, leading to crashes, long loading times, and inability to play.
