positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's kinda fun, but the game is weirdly restricting. Like the decorations can be placed on a sizeable grid and rotated how you like, but tracks are on a rigid grid that cannot be changed; you cannot place tracks next to each other. Additionally, you can only make 90° turns. There’s no 45° turns or diagonals. And the scale of the game is really whack. There’s houses that are far too big and trees that are too small. And you can’t resize them at all.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its a relatively simple sandbox game that lets you design and create small wooden train tracks and cities for the train to drive through. The concept is novel and I think it is a pretty good sandbox. I do have some problems... - You cant really scale buildings. some are insanely massive and dont fit the scale of other buildings. Same with cars, lamppoles and some other decorations. - The decorations are also heavily limited, I think this game couldve used workshop support - Its a bit of an…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is different. Remember, back in kindergarten, those wooden train tracks and little carts we would play with? Well, Tracks - The Train Set Game is essentially that. The idea is very nice, hits right in the nostalgia and has a lot of decoration items that are really gorgeous to decorate your train set with. But I can’t in good faith recommend the game with its current controls. Things aren’t intuitive at all. Removing something is nearly impossible. You can apparently only…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A wonderful game. Great for parents and kids who love trains, or for adults who grew up with wooden train sets as a child. It doesn't try to be anything it isn't - no bait, minimal progression system/basically no walls behind content - and it is easy to learn how to play. I'd recommend a keyboard and mouse. I don't know how it functions with controllers, since I played it with a keyboard/mouse. This game is a pure sandbox - great for just having a chill time by yourself where you can shut your…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I don't know who needs to hear it, but Tracks - The Train Set Game is on sale on Steam for 75% off. ($4.99.) Sale ends in about a day. It's like the wooden toy train set and you can build in sandbox mode to make ridiculous toy railways. store.steampowered.com/app/657240/T...

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lovely little game, I've had it for a few years now but only just came back to it this week, its drastically different(in a good way) from the little train set game I remember. It's amazing! I just wish there was workshop support because I have ideas for decorations that I'd love to make and share with others
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is so frickin old school and i loooooooovvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeee it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tracks: The Train Set Game is a relaxing toy train set city-builder available on PC, Xbox and Switch. Design a track layout, bring it to life using over 400 unique decorations and lots of customisation options, then ride around driving your trains from a first person view.
unlabelledView post →I spent many hours playing with Brio trains as a child. Tracks - The Train Set Game gave me a stronger nostalgic feeling with these wooden trains than I thought was possible. The Christmas bedroom setting really nailed it. Nothing was too difficult. I didn't find myself getting frustrated at anything. If you want to set up some wooden trains and drive them around the room, play this. You can even set up an environment, whole city, and more for your trains. After completing the Passenger mode…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A lovely vacation from the real world. Chill, play some tunes, and play with your trains. The game is still getting regular updates, and feels like it was made with love. 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very simple nice and calm game to play in the free time.....Its simple art work is a chef's kiss.....
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome game. Worth the time and money spent on it. I play it with my 5-year old son, but it's a lot of fun for me as well. Highly reccommended.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tracks is an amazing game, an absolute classic, I also hope that they might possibly add in steam workshop so then you can download like custom user created objects, maps etc. Thanks
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tracks is a calming game that reenacts your childhood wooden train track toys that I am sure a lot of people used to play quite a lot. Tracks offers a small campaign, that is extremely easy. Tracks offers sandbox mode, the most enticing feature when I first learned of it, and while there are many decorations and other stuff to create a unique town, the saving process is quite loose at times, having saved your build inconsistently. Another thing to note is that there are 5 achievements locked…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tracks – The Train Set Game, developed by Whoop Group and published by Excalibur Games, is a gentle, sandbox-style experience that captures the simple joy of assembling a toy train set and brings it into a digital space. It doesn’t frame itself as a traditional game with goals, challenges, or progression systems—instead, it offers a creative playground where the primary objective is whatever you decide to build. From the moment you begin placing tracks, it becomes clear that the appeal lies not…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Up there as one of my favorites. I used to have those little wooden trains from IKEA, and this game really brings back all of the fun I had with those! I've always loved building little worlds with depictions of life, and this game lets you do that really well. Updates can be a bit slow, last update as of writing this was almost a year ago, and that was just bug fixes, but to be honest, there is so much they've added to the game since its launch that I can't really complain about them not…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's great if you are into this sorta thing, but the controls are very hard to get around, and if you like getting all the achievements in a game for free, this isn't it, some are behind a DLC that costs money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Train sandbox allowing you to do whatever your inner child desires The physics seem to be pretty good here; Although, it has its moments where the train derails and it appears like it shouldn't have. There are two game modes, the first being passengers mode which I wish was longer and had more robust goals in mind. Passenger mode is way too short and feels unfinished. Of course free play mode is where the game shines allowing you to do whatever your inner child desires. Whether you want to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →brings back memories, overall good game 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →very fun yo Def play And the price is worth it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is adorable. I wish there was more done with it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →very fun and time consuming
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →SUPER fun! Free play mode is my favorite, you can build forever, I feel like a little kid again but with infinite track pieces :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Review: The game is enjoyable overall, but there are a few bugs in the train and passenger modes that could use attention: 1. Train Position Bug: When loading a saved game, the train sometimes spawns at its original position instead of the location where it was last moved. For example, if you place a train, move it to a new location, and then save the game, upon reloading, the train will appear at its initial spawn point, not the new location you placed it at. 2. Missing Carriages: After…

unlabelledView post →Tracks: The Train Set Game, and yeah pretty much. Just a relaxing game where you build a track layout, decorate it with a bunch of toy houses/trees etc, then ride around from inside the train.
unlabelledView post →Super fun to build on, most of the time I end up doing stuff with nothing to do with trains, speaking of, we could probably do with a train refurbish to make the train a bit more important feeling. Overall this is quite a cute little game, and I have had my fun on it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ive spent years playing this game and its worth the price
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute game where you can design your own toy train tracks to your hearts content! I do highly recommend picking it up especially when its on sale with all the dlc. Only complaint is the game doesnt have steam workshop support, would be great to browse user uploaded tracks to check out. For a game like this youd think a big part of it would be checking out others builds.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This would've been a negative review if i paid full price, but it was on a 75% discount. Trains are cool. PLEASE ADD COMMUNITY LEVELS teleporters would be- no wait we already have those it's called tunnels

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is so chill and i love the vive and it's not expensive to buy at all I think it would be cool if the blob of people ran the city that i make and use anything the is place for eg a whole city running like City skylines and have cars moving around and fire engines and police cars, people shopping and have a cup of coffee at a cafe (it ll be nice to see maccas in game)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would easily pay three time the amount, This is going in my top 10 videos games of all time. The kid inside me is healed. UNDERATED GEM!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is a very nostalgic game. i used to watch youtubers play this game and when i got it all the memories came back :D
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is fun to play with my son, but the fun is often ruined by the frequent bugs you encounter in the game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →will every game give your money back. yes or no?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great if you love trains, of course.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is pretty broken and glitchy
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Theres been a game out like this for a while. It's called "Tracks - The Train Set Game" its real fun and you can do some really cool stuff with it

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I may not have many hours but this game is perfect for when you're sick.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very cute and nostalgic!!!!!! i loved playing with wooden trains as a kid and this takes me back!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An absolute classic, this game is among some of the best relaxing games I have ever played. It's fun, engaging, and is completely mindless. The only complaint that I have about it is that there are achievements locked behind a paid DLC.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My son is 6 and he watched a bunch of Tracks videos and then we saw the game on sale with all dlcs and picked it up. It is kinda easy to figure out there is a tutorial that helps fill in the grey areas but all in all its a beautiful game and intuitive to the user. If you like things like this its worth checking out for sure.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →its like a game, the kind of game that i like.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →if you have no creativity then forget about it otherwise, have fun unleashing your inner toddler :D
