What is Trackline Express?

Trackline Express is a train-building survival game set in a desert, where you escort passengers between stations toward a final destination. You gather and process materials, spend scarce coins to unlock construction blueprints, and add wagons and equipment. Keeping the train fueled and protecting passengers from attackers and wildfires becomes harder with time and distance.

Not for you if...

−you dislike making trade-offs over limited crafting resources
