First Transcontinental Railroad
Go back in history and participate in the 1860's race to build the First Transcontinental Railroad across the United States.
Discover uncharted territories, plan your railroad empire, lay down your tracks and make a fortune! Research technologies and discover inventions that will give you an edge over the competition. Balance short-term gains against your overall strategic plans. Deal with the constant shortage of time and resources available. Face infamous train robbers, and Indians making their final stand on the frontier; or secure protection by the army. Connect growing cities, outposts and harbors with natural resources like oilfields, mines and farms.
For railroad moguls on the go, ten minutes is all it takes to advance your empire ambitions to the next level. Casual players will love the forgiving puzzle format chosen for the Historic Campaigns, while train enthusiasts will spend countless hours in the Sandbox mode, building a railroad network across the entire United States, controlling hundreds of extremely detailed and historically correct steam powered locomotives, all hurling traffic and breaking speed records.
Instead, Age of Trains mixes elements from various genres: Exploration of uncharted territories, Historic Campaigns, Long and short term strategic decisions, Technology trees and Great Leaders that really affect your options and how to play. Compete against fierce opponents and build the best railroad network in truly large-scale, continent-size maps. Set or break a wide range of records while competing with other players around the globe. Enjoy fantastic looking train models and dynamic cameras that will make railroad lovers go nuts! These are just a few of the key points that differentiate Age of Trains from all other railroad games :)
