unlabelledView post →I rarely buy AAA titles anymore and I don’t think I’m missing much. So many good indie/small developers putting out great stuff. my most anticipated game this year is Transport Fever 3. As far as I know Urban Games doesn’t lay off staff after every release.

unlabelledView post →Transport Fever was a fun game, but it isn't compatible with modern systems. Textures don't load properly, features and controls simply don't work. Trying to play Transport Fever in 2023 is like trying to play a game from 2002, in 2023. There's too many incompatibilities, and too many work arounds required to play the game in a half broken state.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hard to say that I don't recommend this one, but I've never seen a transport tycoon-like with such a hostile industry chain and pax network building. (Or at least, based on the early campaign missions) Goods get produced by industries, and then stockpiled to wait for something to come pick them up. Pick up goods from producer, take them to a consumer, get paid. All good so far, try to increase your throughput to make more money, yeah? But for some godforsaken reason, the industries in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Still fun in 2026 if you wanna play transport fever but your laptop is trash ran smooth
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it's a good game but you should get Transport Fever 2 instead; it's way better.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Maybe not as a thread, but similarly I have been playing way too much Transport Fever 2 again recently. So enjoy some mediocre screenshots from my current, and very much work in progress, game. And yes, these liveries make no sense together. I'm being lazy and using my continental Europe mod list.
unlabelledView post →I expected a Transport Tycoon on steroids, but the only thing I got was disappointment. Seems like the devs spent too much time and resources on the video mode and npc citizens than on actual gameplay. + cities and vehicles look great + goofy TT music and vibe + lines manager + the campaigns are good - maps are too small, even the large ones - outside the cities and factories is just bare emptiness - no AI competion in free mode - road vehicles CANNOT OVERTAKE! that's crazy – you can upgrade…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have Transport Fever... Doctors say it's terminal.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Transport Fever 2 is better in every way. But I can't give this game a thumbs-down. Choo Choo
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't waste money buying this game. Just get 2. The black map bug constantly happens even after following people's advice on forums.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Transport Fever is like if OpenTTD was 3D and otherwise worse in every way. The game is slow, signals are functionally inadequate, elevation and curvature makes everything difficult with train tracks, supply lines are inconsistent, cargo management is a pain, and overall this game just makes me wish I was playing OpenTTD instead. Don't get it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do yourself a favor and get the sequels instead. The industries and passengers are incredibly frustrating to deal with on all levels. For industries what I assume is happening they have no idea of a supply chain in their code. i.e. try running a long ship line, where the producing industry will only ship out a first burst of goods and then arbitrarily stop, presumably because it thinks it would overfill the target recipient, leaving 4 of your ships running empty. Further on that, the industries…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →so with Transport Fever 3 coming out, i have against my better judgment started playing Transport Fever 2 despite my love of citybuilders and also trains, it is a game many people whose opinions about games i'd enjoy i trust deeply advised me not to play NOW I SEE WHY

unlabelledView post →Transport Fever is a transport tycoon-style simulation game that offers a deep, engaging experience for fans of logistics, infrastructure, and the economic intricacies of moving people and goods. Developed by Urban Games, it serves as a spiritual successor to classic titles like Transport Tycoon and Railroad Tycoon, delivering a modern take on building and managing a transport empire. It spans over 150 years of transportation history—from the mid-19th century to the present day—and gives…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good , i personally lost interest after like 20 hours because i'm a little retarded and i got ragebaited by my own mistakes ... was building this f"cking complex train system for like 3 hours but , i don't even remember what was wrong and it ruined it all , but that's irelevant . Game good , would buy again 👍
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You spend more time fighting the UI than playing the game. Just awful. Loads of dialogs to accomplish simple tasks. Loads of dialogs to close since they stay open on the screen. No way of getting overview of economy for long-term planning. Lots of micromanagement but no macromanagement. The most miserable, petty and misleading track- and road-laying editor. Incredibly disrespectful of player's time. So glad to be deleting this from my HD and glad it was just a couple of bucks I spent on…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I reviewed Transport Fever 3 from the logistics management sim. This game is a massive upgrade in so many ways from UI to depth compared to TF2 and of course it's quite enjoyable.

unlabelledView post →Imo someone should gift me Transport Fever 3 when it comes out (good for them) because it has Trans in its name. Perfect logic, I know! (I will buy the game day 1)

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Paid version of OpenTTD with nice looking graphics
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →concept is great but bugs are killing this game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game's documentation is significantly lacking, and the track laying process is user hostile. Even after overcoming that, it seems like the revenue mechanics are also badly tuned in the main campaign, making it a boring slog to even get through the first mission.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I mean, even if you don't play this type of game regularly I would HIGHLY recommend checking out. Especially with TF3 announced! Personally I have a 300+ mod list so make full empires of transport over 100s of years (in game) then play again and have a completely unique game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It takes some figuring out... Many things are not obvious (freight can get dropped off at passenger terminals). Overall its fun to build large multimodal transport networks. It would be nice if you could look around when you ride in your transportation vehicle. Good for offline and hours of play.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm down with the sickness - This game is extremely addicting. It's like Cities: Skylines but without any of the crappy parts
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Me, who installed the Realistic Train Noises mod for Transport Fever, to my wife, who is serving me divorce papers for playing the game at full volume.
unlabelledView post →Tutorial is a waste! Can't see the colored areas that the Tutorial references. Can't get to build depots/stations or anything to connect the track ends. Maybe this is why I haven't looked at this game in over a year!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a fun game once you get it working right, but I wouldn't check "recommend" because this game requires a user manually modifying the lua files to work as intended. I don't think most gamers even know what a lua file is, and probably think I am typing in 133t$p3@k right now. The game is fun. It's Train fever again, but without all the performance issues that made anything longer than a couple hours of gameplay impossible in that game. It adds new methods of transport like boats and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My second game of Transport Fever 3 is going much better this time 1900 start, now in 1902 and I paid off my loan, and established my HQ, now to make profit 😎
unlabelledView post →youtu.be/wgbZyKB7FKI?.... NGL, Transport Fever 3 is my GTA VI, purely for the fact I can have Tram Trains in the game. I don't think you get how hyped I am for this feature alone.
unlabelledView post →Still holds up well in 2026. There are some minor annoyances, such as a single misplaced signal making you check an entire line segment by segment instead of telling you where your line is broken, or the inability to upgrade an entire line to electric with a single click, but these are very minor things. Overall this is a well thought out game that will provide days of entertainment.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is an excellent prequal to Transport Fever 2
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While this game is good. The Developer has gotten into bed with one of the worst Publisher in gaming history. Pardox games. They even think this good news. Urban games can go pound sand.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Never reviewed TF1 and now with the Paradox partnership.... BLEGH! No good and do not recommend this game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The best Transport Fever game so far
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun game, but I am kinda disappointed in the number of campaign missions. It's also very tricky to get used to from the start.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game overall, despite some clucky aura on how the building system works and the UI. To play effectively, you need to understand how the resources allocation system works. I believe the resource system is kind of flawed in my opinion. Unfortunately this process is trail and error since the game has no way to visualize were passenger or cargo needs to go and this can be frustrating. And at this point you might be better off getting the transport fever 2 or 3 and skipping over this one…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Wastes the player's time because players need to have to work out how the game works instead of just having a manual that tells you exactly what does what, and how it all connects up so that it functions as normal. Seems a little buggy and wastes time with rail cargo transfers from rail terminal sites in campaign mode. (Panama Canal Campaign) Placing objects down feels clunky and causes funds to be used accidentally, forcing player to load an auto save. I am not sure about Transport Fever 2,…

unlabelledView post →Maybe the most addicting transport game I've played -- which says a lot considering I've been getting addicted to these games since Railroad Tycoon back on DOS. It does require a bit of figuring out -- but there's plenty of help available in various places online. It doesn't have the graphics that the newer games have, but it's not low-quality either. And it will run on a graphics card that doesn't require water cooling.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a great and easy to understand transport tycoon like game. The systems are really great in their depth of information, customisation and ease to duplicate your routes and vehicles. The graphics and sound will make you feel right there behind the wheel. There are campaigns to follow or you can custom map any size or year with some modifiers and mod friendly support to have the ultimate experience you desire. This is a must play for any transport tycoon enthusiast. 10/10
