Sid Meier's Railroads! (PC)Strengths: graphics, certain aspects of track laying Weakness: can't zoom out very far, doesn't work in Vista, simplified version of Railroad Tycoon, scenarios I have played Railroad Tycoon Deluxe and Railroad Tycoon 2 and enjoyed those games very much - especially RT2. When Sid Meier's Railroads! came out, I was excited to give it a try, but I waited until I could get it under $10. The game is fun and looks great. The cities and landscape are 3D and colorful. When you build a railroad into a city, the railroad gets right of way and the buildings in the...

All Aboard!Strengths: Fun little game. Take control of, manage, and maintain railways and trains. Weakness: Somewhat tedious after playing for a while. Sid Meier's Railroads! is fun little game that are similar to those tycoon and Sim City games, except it focus mainly on railways and trains and some surroundings of the railways. The game allows the player to take control, manage, and maintain the railways and the trains to ensure they are in proper working order. The game also shares one of the problem as the tycoon and Sim games, it is...

RailroadsStrengths: Challenging Weakness: None Sid Meier will probably go down as one of the most prolific strategy program designers of all time, and for good reason. He delivers. Like many of his past efforts, like the Civilization series, Sid's attention to detail shows in this Railroad strategy game that is both engaging and challenging.

Get on this trainStrengths: Nice graphics with addictive gameplay Weakness: Simple mechanics(But that could be an attraction for some) This is a strategy game where you manage your train transactions, the railroads connecting cities & then later you can own resources in a city to maximize profits Even with lower graphic settings, the game looks great. Sound is OK & the gameplay is simple but still has depth to it. You buy out the competition to win them. Once you play multiplayer it gets addictive in no time. This game is one of...

Sid Meier's RailroadsStrengths: A good Sid Meier game. Weakness: A bit dated. A slight updating of Sid Meier's Railroads. I have not played the original, but this one is pretty good. I'm not a railroad nut, but it is still a good simulation game that pulls you in. It is kind of cool that you get to deal with some well-known railroad tycoons from history. If you are into trains, you'll absolutely love this. If you just like simulation games, you like this one a whole lot.

For Sid Meier FansStrengths: 3d, Sid Meier, Weakness: May not run smoothly on older systems, nothing really new Having played the original as well as the Railway Tycoon 2 I was looking forward to new innovations from the original creator. However, I haven't seen much of it, compared to the innovations introduced for Civ 3 and 4.

Sid Meier's Railroads!
Strengths: Fun and very satisfying game to play. Easy to pick up and play from the box.

The graphical interface used in the game is very straightforward and there are no endless menus to...
