Railway Empire is a very hilarious and interesting work that shows the development of railways throughout history in a great way. The game stands out especially for its honestly crafted campaign, historical accuracy and also for its very attractive graphics and sound system of individual machines. The presence of the competition, which is not afraid to take unfair actions against you, and the extensive technology tree further strengthen the pleasant gaming experience. However, everything takes its toll, and there are a moderate number of minor, rather isolated bugs in the game. What's really annoying, however, is the cheating AI that bends certain gameplay mechanics to its advantage in certain situations, or outright ignores them. Still, this is a very accomplished game that will keep fans of the genre, and especially train lovers, happy and entertained for hours.

Railway Empire is a great game that will keep players entertained for hours on end thanks to the huge amount of content and the way it calms your mind. The AI has some huge problems, however, which can detract from the overall enjoyment.

if you are looking for a good strategy game, Railway Empira is a must try. It only adds to the experience if you like trains it even comes with history lessons and can get hard and complicated.

Railway Empire is a deep, engrossing simulation strategy game. Once you get the hang of the controls and the finer points of running a mega railway empire, you’ll spend many hours playing with trains. For train enthusiasts this is the game you need and for those of us that are looking for their next strategy simulation hit then look no further than Railway Empire! That only leaves me with one thing to say before I rush off to carry on building my vast rail empire across the UK and transport some much needed meat to those hungry folk in Kilkenny, my score is Two Thumbs Up.

In other words, if you’re considering Railway Empire because you love the sound of a train in the distance, you’re not likely to enjoy the game. This is a management seem that digs deeply into the technology, the business strategy, and the economic acumen required to tame America’s landscape and reach the pinnacle of what this nation’s all about: corporate power.
