Railroad Tycoon 3

Enticing!

User Rating: 8.5 | Railroad Tycoon 3 PC

Although a 2D game and slighted on the graphics, Railroad Tycoon 3 is an amazing game for the business strategist. It will keep you tied up for hours connecting cities and making sure the right goods are sent to the right places racking up profits for your industries. I think the game would have done better with more detail or even expanding the idea and making it a total transport tycoon rather than just train.
There are a few minor errors that I don't remember now, but do recall telling myself that needed to be fixed while playing it. Overall, though, the game is fun and will keep you entertained for hours.

After a while, though, the game does start to wear. After the initial 25-30 years, the game seems like it's over and you just let your empire go without giving it the careful detail you had been when you only had a few stations. Managing all of the stations after a couple of decades grows tiresome.
