Sorry about that. Just noticed in my last game which means, yes, I’ve gone back for more. Not a bad sign.

Sorry, no screenshot in this entry – even though the game over screen is really nice. Maybe some other time, if you’re good.

Railroad Madness (iPhone) http://inverty.com/2009/07/23/railroad-madness-iphone/ http://inverty.com/2009/07/23/railroad-madness-iphone/#comments Thu, 23 Jul 2009 11:55:00 +0000 That Rev Chap http://inverty.com/?p=2515 Just downloaded this as it’s free today. Just today. If you’re reading this a day or more after I post this entry, you’ll have missed out.

Should you care?


Well, I’m not sure. I’ve not played it much – only three or four games. Seems like a fun, fast-paced little puzzle game, but it takes too long to get going and the control scheme, though as simple as possible and completely logical, can be very annoying. Oh, and sometimes the trains are so short that the smoke from the chimney obscures its colour, making it very hard to tell if it’s a cargo train (which has to be directed to the stations on the left) or a passenger train (which needs to go to the right).

Which sounds like a lot of complaining, but it’s still pretty fun, I think. If you’re reading this when it’s still free, go grab it, if it’s back up to 59p, well, it might be worth a go, but it’s too early to tell. Watch this space.
