    For me, the game is completely ruined by the fact that demand between cities is randomly generated and you cannot create routes between cities that have no direct demand between them. Helsinki and Stockholm have no demand between them, meanwhile Bialystok to Kalmar is the busiest route in the game. The pairings change with every new game but every time at least some of any given city's neighboring cities have no demand to there. There's no hope of recreating real-world routes. This completely…

    Just not very good or in depth. At the current price this is fine but i wouldn't recommend this game to anyone. My favorite mistake is the listed capital of the State of Georgia is Tbilisi.

    Bad transport simulator, demand is randomly generated and pretty static (except for random events), you cannot expand to the whole world from every map / starting location

    Just a heads up, this isn't a sandbox or tycoon game, it's trying to be some sort of puzzle game by restricting which routes you're allowed to set up, rather than being about which routes you decide to set up. Not for me, and I suspect the a lot of the negativity about this game is caused by the difference in expectation and reality.

    At first, I found Transport INC to be quite engaging, but things went downhill after a couple of hours, when I realized that it pretends to be deeper than it really is. Its biggest flaw is that you can’t influence the economic environment in any way. You can’t develop cities or create supply and demand by building manufacturing plants or extracting oil.

    One thing I don't like about some management games, is that I have to decide on details that a manager shouldn't have to worry about, like ticket prices on individual buses. The UI is hard to read. The game isn't giving me the feedback I need, like why can't I build a new bus route between two cities? Is it too expensive? Is there some limit for how many routes I can setup? Who knows! And also to require that I play through two chapters of the story mode before I can play in free mode! I don't…

    I bought this game thinking that it would be similar to a tycoon game...as the game's trailer would have you believe. I was ,however, disappointed at the insane limitation that this game has. If you are looking to set up a hub in a city and connect to cities of your choosing, I would not recommend this game. Routes are not able to be created unless there is 'demand' between those two cities (which is randomly generated by the game). Common routes (such as New York City to Boston or Los Angeles…

    The game is fine. It kept me interested for a few hours but the campaign soon became boring as I had to start from scratch for every mission meaning it's the same old bus routes again and again. Gave up on that after a chapter 8 or so and went into free play but found it rather lacking as it's essentially just a race against the computer to see who can build the biggest business fastest. There's no real dynamism in providing better service or improving connections/ thinking outside the box.…

    Fun idea, confusing execution. Hard to figure out even with the tutorial and was tedious to play. Even as someone who likes map based games, sims and transportation themed games this wasn't very fun. I tried to get into it but I could not. Maybe if they make the tutorial better or someone online can make a tutorial that gets straight to the point I will pick it back up. I really wanted to like it.

    Not so great as a management game. It's basically setting up city to city transport routes and then tweaking one or two things to optimize them. The transport demand is largely RNG based and so it doesn't feel like a simulation either. It doesn't really give a sense of accomplishment or of building something, just micromanaging.

    It is a cheap game and I got it on sale for next to nothing. But tbh it lacks any sort of depth and I mildly regret the £2 I spent on it. I was actually looking at buying another game by the same developer and publisher but I assume it is the same 'meh' quality shovelware so I'm put off. Each city/town will have 1-4 possible other cities/towns you can create a route to which is a huge missed opportunity for progression since it would make sense to use trains for longer distance routes, and…

    The game is probably easier to grok than OpenTTD or other network-oriented "Tycoon" games. That being said, the automation options are uneven, and unclear. There also seems to be no intuitive way to manage acquired companies. And, the maps could certainly use some work: on the World Map, you have UK and France; but no London, or Paris; California, the cities are an odd mix; for comparison, the Ukrainian map has way more cities (and the devs walk a tightrope in giving Sevastopol to the Ukraine…

    When I bought Transport INC, I thought it would be something like Rail Route but on a global scale with more options and more types of transportation. But actually, it is more of a puzzle game, that has many bugs and just badly balanced. Let me explain: In the beginning of this game, you start of operating a bus company and you have to operate busses between cities. But the game doesn't let you freely choose the routes your busses take, it's all kinda predetermined, which takes away the…

    This is a minimalistic logistical puzzle game, GOOD for a few hours and not worth full price IMO. It's a little buggy too. I lost all my saves when I tried to delete JUST one. (I recommend backup your saves) Sometimes things get stuck. A restart usually fixes it. PUZZLE GAME FIRST If you go into this realizing Transport INC is more a puzzle game rather than a sandbox logistics game you should get along fine with it. NO CUSTOM ROUTE/DEMAND CREATION (like Transport Fever) Important to note…

    Cities don't grow over time, once you connect all the cities, that's it. Demand doesn't change because of connections or price, whereas in real life demand can be induced by faster, cheaper, more direct connections. No ability to advertise your routes like in City Bus Manager. No integration of real maps like City Bus Manager, which doesn't cost that much more when on discount.

    Transport INC is a minimalist tycoon game/spreadsheet simulator where you control a bus company and plot routes between different cities, while maintaining your bus fleet, paying the bills and hopefully making some profit and growing your transport empire. Basically Euro Truck Sim, but with buses instead of trucks, and with all the gameplay and graphics removed. Sound like fun? Yeah, it's as much fun as finding some dry paint and watching it to see if it gets any drier. On the upside the…

    To caveat my "positive" review, this is on the basis that I bought the game on a super cheap sale, and I think it's worth that super cheap price (Sub £5 with all DLC). I played most of the story until I got bored, then jumped into a "free play" game to be let down by the actual map sizes. I wanted something where I could take over the world with my company, at the same detail I had played in each of the campaign levels. So you can imagine my disappointment when I loaded up the "World map",…

    I tried this old classic for the first time. It has some major flaws that baffles me. Is there some hard coded reason for it not to be fixed? Vehicles decay in time. You can hire a manager to repair them automatically. But the maximum repair status is also decaying. To get it back to 100%, you have to do a "full repair". This is not possible to automate, except for a cumbersome "subsidiary" system, but it has major limitations and is truly cumbersome to use. When for example a bus is coming in…

    The game feels very slow, and I had to wait for one bus to bring in enough profit to progress during the second level. First, I got a cheap bus that didn't bring enough profit. Afterwards, I tried a more expensive bus, but that didn't bring enough profit either. When it broke down, I wasn't able to buy the depot. i really like planning and transportation games, but this one just felt odd to me.

    Great little game, not sure I would pay full price but £2.78 in the sale then its worth it. Not sure how people are finding this game confusing, especially the ones who claim to be avid lovers of transport sims etc. This is very straight forward, and the added features as you progress only help in the matter, so yeah I wouldn't say this game is confusing at all, and if you just play the tuts and actually pay attention/read the wiki the game provides, then its pretty easy to get the hang off.

It's quite a bit more boring then the base game and for some reason it's horribly badly programmed - I got to the second american sea stage and saves went from <1 second to taking a good 30-60 seconds each every about 3 minutes.

    Transport Inc. is a minimalistic transport "simulation" that leaves out any road or track building and makes you focus on planning routes. I am putting "simulation" in quotation marks, as this game definitely does not try to be realistic in any way, not to mention challenging for experienced transport sim players. The game has three types of demand that are distributed pretty randomly over the cities on the map. Also, routes only connect two cities and cannot have stopovers. So the goal is not…

    The campaign progression is too steep. Halfway through it, one mission already wants you to just acquire almost all of European countries, 40ish licenses. That's it, that's the goal. Not too creative, much grind. The first 2 or so missions started out nicely, getting you into the game. Then it quickly becomes a grind. And you start over from scratch each mission, repeating yourself sort of. Some automation exists, like the Manager that can take care of vehicle servicing for you completely.…
