So the map just gets punishingly hard, if you are into that sort of thing.
And if you’re really hungry for some difficulty there’s a challenge mode, where tracks are permanent. Or you can go right to endless mode where they give you plenty more trains to run around and a few more lines so that way you can just continue to build the map and just kind of relax and make sure your whole city is running fine. Yet if you lose on a map it’s really no big deal you can play the level again and the map will be procedurally generate differently. This leads me to continually play a certain map so that way I get a good ranking on the leaderboard. Each map also comes with an online ranking board so you can see how you’re doing against every other switch user which is actually kind of cool. Stations and trains fill up and they start to fill up quite quickly once your population grows. Mini Metro’s minimalistic nature doesn’t mean that it doesn’t get challenging at times. Yet it’s simplicity is why it’s so great anyone can pick up and play. It’s a simple gameplay loop, one that almost feels likes a board game. As each week of game time passes you are given a locomotive and a choice between two other resources. You have complete control over time though, you can pause it, to plan your next move or speed it up if you just want things to get along. You always start with three lines and a handful of tunnels or bridges, laying them out to optimize your train system. Mini Metro emphasizes resource management as your stations fill up with more people and more stops pop up. Some are more tightly packed or sometimes you have to deal with multiple river crossings. The maps are always real world cities which all come with their own problems and obstacles. The simplistic design of the game, and soothing music lend this to being a game to sit back and chill with. Each stage ends up looking like a beautiful classic Harry Beck style map with bright colors and straight lines. Building your train system is super easy and intuitive, I used Touchscreen controls the whole game because it was so nice to connect all my lines with thine own hand. Mini Metro is a relaxing train system simulator, with simple controls that lets you build any type of rails that your real world city maps need. Playing Mini Metro is the complete opposite of that. Well now you can prove it while riding the T with Mini Metro on Switch.Īs you can tell, riding the T is a stressful and exhausting experience. Somedays you just think to yourself “I could build a better train system than this! I could cobble it together with sticks and stones and it would still be better”. It is the bane of my existence, nothing is more broken or slower than the MBTA. Now for 7 years I’ve been taking what we Bostonians call the T, pretty much daily.
