What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
For context
Refunds16 of 800 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

Since part 3 of this magnificent game came out today, I thought its time for a review of this one. If we're lucky i'll never play it again. Its by far the best Game of its genre (until TF3 proves me wrong). If you like trains or trucks: play this game. Obviously If you like spreadsheets: play this game. If you like solving problems to create more problems to solve until you have no idea whats happening and how...

I uninstalled TF3 and re-installed TF2. Coming home after the TF3 garbage. This version is great and I happily recommend it , even after 7 years.

Can't believe I snoozed on this for so long. Got all the autistic chill gaming traits fans of city builders and RTS games love but withou the chaos. Good challenge to do well, but not too consequential if you do it poorly. Great after work grind for a few hours without leaving you frustrated.
