About the Game

Egypt in the 1850's, build the first Railway network Africa, along the Nile in 6 levels. Fulfill transports of Passengers and Goods. Earn money by having an efficient Railway network.

Handle accidents by replacing Trains and rebuild rails, if your train was too fast for a too tight curve.

Build until you run out of money or take some limited loans to continue to build.

With multiple Rails on a Station you can choose which Track a route should use, so you can setup a complex network. Also decide which Wagon type and which Locomotive you want to use. Create the most efficient lines by reusing the Train wagons for several goods.

Decide where only to unload goods and not to load, which adds extra stops to free the track for other Trains.

The 6 Levels contain a Map created from real Terrain profiles. (The House/Train/Ship and River is not according the Terrain Size)

Requirements

Vulkan compatible Graphics Card and Driver.

To run the Game on older Hardware with a Nvidia GPU, please make sure to have the driver with at least version of 425.31* installed. This is required to enable Vulkan support.
