Orient Express: The Train Simulator App Reviews

Crashes before the main menu screen

I was not originaly pleased with this game due in large part to the lack of track pieces. I was also unhappy to find I could not build triple switches, however, these are the rules which make this game something of a challenge. It takes time to learn. If you do not want to learn how to build the tracks, do not buy this game, otherwise you will have some fun after the aggrabation dies. I would,however, like to see the player have the ability to construct the control lights where they see fit.

Crashes with in seconds. No response from creator.

This developer has been experimenting with monetizing this app for years and it has now become unplayable with the incredibly intrusive and constant stream of ads. Sometimes it plays ads in the middle of your game WITHOUT PAUSING YOUR GAME, crashing your trains. No longer fun. Thanks for nothing, devs.

I have been a sim city fan for as long as I can remember, and this game is just as fun. Same idea, but with trains!

This game crashes constantly!!!!! FIX IT OR REFUND MY MONEY!!

One of my favorite games BUT not being able to fix track after crash in a town is annoying. Not sure if its a glitch or attempt to add difficulty but please fix/change it. It does still crash a bit.

Keeps crashing as soon as you start to play dont buy it save your money they still havent fixed it. A piece of garbage.

One star because the game provides zero enjoyment and theres not enough description of game play to decide before buying. Summary of game play: connect two CPU-set stations with track pieces. Direct traffic with switches & stop lights. When the computer adds another station, connect it to existing track. Comments: this is not railroad tycoon in any form. The track piece geometry makes it difficult and unenjoyable to connect stations. There is no commodity or passenger management. Micromanaging direction of train traffic is not enjoyable.

Definitely

Its quite difficult game. First, you need figure it out, understand what youre supposed to do and how. But then youll see its fantastic! I failed to build a road from the very first, though I tried again and again (3 times) and I did it.

This game is very addicting. I like trains so this is my kind of game. It takes using your brain a little bit.

Really impressive game. I can play it for a very LONG time. My iPhone battery cant bear this (:

There is no light thing on the top of the screen! I looked at the help area and I built the lay out. But where is the light thing on the top the signal! I am on 7.1 and I cant find the singal on the top of the screen! But I say its the best train set up out there keep it up❗️

Ive been playing a similar but much better game for months. Try Rails by Belight Software to see what this game should be like.

Connect the two stations. No train ever signals to want to leave and then you just collect fines for not releasing the train that is ready to go until you lose. Useless.

Orient Express is a hard game but due to the tutorial it becomes easier. So, use it. Actually, its very addictive and interesting. I like Construction mode best of all.

Retired Folks didnt do their homework. Last time I checked August 11, 2009 comes before January 6, 2013. This app was around 3 1/2 years before the app they mentioned. The graphics are primitive but cute. The controls are frustrating and difficult to master. By the time I have track built the game is already over. Im not a fan of timed games so this one is not for me.

Good like trying to get a train going. Apparently I just cant get the rails "good and ready" which is the terms of the user guide on how to play. "Just connect the towns"... Then what!?? Spent the afternoon tinkering and hoping but I give up. Also, the controls are hard to deal with, and only like 8 rail options, not a lot of creativity

Can NOT release trains once track is constructed.
