A Nostalgic Classic;
Transport Fever 1 remains a captivating experience for those who love the foundations of transportation simulation! Players can feel the spirit of the Industrial Revolution by building railway networks, ports, and airports, embarking on a historical journey from the 1850s to the 2000s.

Great simulation game! Easily spending hours on it building whatever transportation systems you want.

The idea of the game is good to transport cargo, etc., but it is very upsetting that even at the minimum settings the computer is fiercely heated, and the game is lagging, it is rather poorly optimized, but I want to emphasize that over time new modes of transport appear and open up, but the lags of the game are only getting bigger over time

If bad graphics aren't problem for you, just give it a chance, it's really good game, but I think it's better to buy it on sale.

This game try something very praiseworthy but fails in most cases.. Ect : Have to make too many trucks to satisfy supply chains.. When u have to replace them (Age) - Its also chaotic.. Very very sensitive supply chains and bottlenecks that are unlogic.. "Try to transport more Stone" - Big train on full load just sitting there .. No bottlenecks down the line.. Traindepots have to get connected both ways to work.. Many many more annyoing things. Who owns the rights to Transport Tycoon (Deluxe) now?? Perfect game would use TTD as a base.. Almost no errors.. Open TTD fixed most annoying things..

It allows me to create my own world and just to watch it move forward. I never used the campaigns, because the free game mode is so liberating. The goal is not just to create, but to create something perfectly, uniquely, efficiently, to see it grow. It's my zen garden...a masterpiece with an upcoming sequel that brings more features the original needed.

Super Tycoon with poor performance. It brings the transport tycoons on current or modern level.

An amazing game in the genre! fun for hours and hours and hours. The only thing holding it back is a micro management problem. I would like to see the ability to import maps from the real world instead of procedural generated ones.

Terrible UI. How have we gone backwards since Railroad Tycoon and Transport Tycoon were released so long ago? It should not be so difficult to change the makeup of a train's cargo, to see what kind of passengers/cargo are at a station. Good graphics mask a poorly designed game.

It's true that the game is not perfect, but the very low votes are a bit exaggerated, and so I will give it a 9 to compensate, even if the real vote should be 7 for a causal player, and 8 for a fan of the transport simulation genre. As I said, there are still some flaws, mainly with the UI and the game performance when there are too much objects on the map, but they don't really break the gameplay, that is immersive and challenging, and I hope that the Devs will continue to improve the game. The game is really challenging particularly at the start and @ hard difficulty, where you must be very careful at what you build and where or you will be bankrupt in a few minutes. It's really a great satisfaction to see your carefully planned transport network to grow and to bring prosperity to the cities on the map. And it's great to wait for new, powerful vehicles to unlock as the years go by.

Haven't had a decent transport management sim since Transport Tycoon (TT), but Transport Fever takes that mantle now for me. Sure, it's not perfect yet. The UI needs a bit of work to make laying track and routing trains a bit easier for example, but you can get round that with some perseverance at the moment. The graphics are lovely - people in the world all move about their own business and the cities/businesses respond to how well you interact with them. You really get a sense that you've made a difference. Nice addition of achievements to add more goals for the campaign modes - nice historical alignment too. It even has the catchy TT-esque music lol. The most important aspect of all - it makes me think hard about how best to do something, even more than TT did! I'm completely hooked. If you're a fan of Transport Tycoon - ignore the really low-scoring reviews, they are overly dramatic, and in some instances I think some players have either missed the point, or are just bad at the game. Giving it an 8/10 because of some bugs, but great effort! Really looking forward to further patches/improvements.

You love management game ? challenging game ? This one is for you ! Forget these new games like Planet Coaster or Cities Skyline that put all the efforts on cosmetics and nothing on the management side. The campaign is excellent (again, not like new games that only do "sandbox" modes). This game is truly challenging. Money is difficult to make and you have to carefully manage your transport in order to win.

I understand people that say this game is not so good, because it is hard to learn, isn't really realistic etc. but if you are one of the many players that played good old transport strategies, this one is for you. Personally, I played only OpenTTD but many many hours of it and I have to say that Transport Fever is just like OpenTTD but with better, very detailed (as for transport tycoon) 3D graphics. The mechanics and interface are identical to those of OpenTTD. Buttons like "create new line" are in the same exact place. I highly recommend it to every fan of TTD. The only thing thats lacking is multiplayer. There is none, not even LAN. We can only hope that the developers will add it in update or in the next game.

A pretty dismal effort to improve its predecessor. Fixes none of the interface, performance and play-ability problems of the original game while adding unwelcome and unnecessary complexity to cargo systems. Ultimately a pretty insulting effort to emulate Transport Tycoon.

Great game if you are a fan of the genre. Most importantly it is cross platform, and it runs smooth on my Linux setup. You need a dedicated graphics card and it is very resource hungry (compared to other games of this genre). The game is available on Steam and GOG, so you can get a DRM-free copy. It has a pretty high simulation complexity. Every Person is simulated separately. They have a home, a workplace and a shop they'd like to visit. Some of them want to travel as quickly as possible, others as fast as possible. You'll get money depending on how fast you can transport them. For this purpose you have trains, buses, ships and airplanes available. There is also a quite complex Goods system which can be served by your transport business. It is not a simple game, especially in the beginning and can be frustrating, if you are not patient. Also laying tracks is very tricky if you are not familiar with the provided tools, but they are very powerful if you start to master them. You can build very complex track installations. There is also a very nice campaign mode, where you can play some episodes of American and European transport history. Moreover there is a great modding community for this games and already more than 200 mods are available on steam workshop and the community web page (mostly vehicles).

Transport Fever funciona mejor a modo de homenaje a los míticos juegos de gestión de transporte de hace décadas que como juego propio, ya que no hace nada original ni innovador en el género, y se limita a ser meramente funcional. No obstante, si disfrutaste aquellos títulos en su día también disfrutaras este, y su curva de dificultad es muy baja por lo que resulta una opción muy recomendable para adentrarse en este género, amen de que cuando toda tu red de transporte funciona a la perfección resulta muy entretenido. -Lee el análisis completo en Letiste Gaming!! -

This game starts of way to slow. The first hour or so you have money for one train and one route you build it and than just wait. The 3 time speed is a joke maybe if they added a 10x speed this game would get more interesting. Now its just way to slow paced. You can watch a movie and play this game at the same time.

Well done both the Gambitious Digital Entertainment and the Urban Games team for the hard work provided in this second episode. The very well done and interesting campaigns, fantastic detailed graphics, the well improved cargo system make this game addictive. For the first time in years, I have the feeling that some people did work hard on a game and most importantly had listen to players. Many hours of playing are already planned. I have been a fan of transport games for years and it looks like it won't stop tomorrow. Bravo! If you liked Train fever, you won't be disappointed by this new sequel.

This game is so much better than its predecessor Train Fever! I personally enjoy the game and don't have any major complaints at all. It gives me the good old Transport Tycoon feeling again, but with better graphics. I really like to play games like these, the infrastructure/city building style games. I am impressed with the quality of the scenery and it's so satisfying to watch the towns growing bigger as you add more transport. The level of detail is great: Trains, Buses and Trucks even have working headlights. Track laying is easy, almost everything is possible. It performs well on my average PC.
