Critic Reviews
Pocket Trains is a decent take on transport management with a fair bit of depth and it can be fun to reason out how to run your trains most effectively, but unfortunately the vast sea of unavoidable IAP and the game’s repetitiveness really put a damper on any fun faster than a speeding locomotive.
Allan Curtis · Oct 22, 2013 Reviewed on AndEven for those who’ve ‘supported’ NimbleBit with regular IAP donations, you suspect the Bux stop here.
Edge Staff · Oct 03, 2013 Reviewed on iOSOn the other hand, players used to more arcade-like games will get bored soon, and for sure there's who doesn't like the retro-like graphics at all, let alone there should be a way to share trains with your friends or create your own maps whatsoever.
Peter Warrior · Oct 02, 2013 Reviewed on AndOverall however, I think Pocket Trains makes a lot of strides with its core gameplay, making it the sort of logistical title that I think Pocket Planes aspired to be. Suffice to say, there's really no reason not to check out Pocket Trains, and I highly recommend everyone giving it a try.
Eric Ford · Sep 30, 2013 Reviewed on iOSRead full reviewPocket Trains sticks close to NimbleBit’s successful Pocket Planes and Tiny Tower, but it’s not hard to understand why. This is a fun ride, and best of all, it’s free.
Nadia Oxford · Sep 30, 2013 Reviewed onRead full reviewIf I want to set it down for an hour, a day, a month, or a year, I can do that and not feel stressed about it. It's a relaxing game, and one I'm quite willing to sink lots of time and the occasional few dollars into because I enjoy the experience I have with it.
Carter Dotson · Sep 26, 2013 Reviewed on iOSRead full reviewThe real-time train design and movement compliments adorable 8-bit "Bitizen" character designs and locomotives. It's a neat effect that works really well. The music is also good, and the classic train sound effects, like the tooting of a horn, will fill enthusiasts with joy. While it would've been nice to have some form of train control or situations to resolve, Pocket Trains is a well-polished simulation that fans of this sort of game will enjoy.
Robert Workman · Sep 06, 2013 Reviewed on iOSRead full reviewA neat little sim, but once you get down to the bones of the matter, Pocket Trains is a little too similar to its airborne predecessor.
