BECOME A TRAM DRIVER
Take control of a classic tram and guide it along scenic routes inspired by Central and Eastern Europe of the 2000s.
Operate the tram’s systems, navigate challenging sections of track and harsh weather conditions, keep to the schedule, and ensure passenger comfort while traveling between residential districts, suburbs, and industrial areas.
KEY FEATURES
Realistic tram handling
Learn how the systems and electronics of a classic tram work. The car’s weight, inertia, and track condition demand careful, attentive driving.
Atmospheric city
Explore a fictional city inspired by Central and Eastern Europe in the mid-2000s: panel housing districts, forest stretches, industrial areas, and a historic center.
Dynamic driving conditions
Weather, temperature, and rail condition directly affect the tram’s behavior and require you to adapt your driving style.
Challenging route sections
Worn curved rails, gradients, and speed restrictions will test your control and precision.
Driver responsibility
Follow the timetable, carry passengers, and keep an eye on their comfort level.
REALISM
Driving a tram isn’t as easy as it may seem.
A 16-ton machine is sensitive to speed, weather, and track condition, so the driver must stay focused and precise. Slippery rails, frost, worn curves, and other infrastructure quirks will test your skills and your ability to adapt to real-world conditions.
Passengers trust your professionalism and want to arrive on time. Can you live up to that trust?
THE WORLD AROUND YOU
A fictional yet richly detailed city awaits, inspired by Eastern and Central Europe in the mid-2000s.
Panel housing districts, forest sections, industrial zones, and an old town center create a varied and atmospheric urban environment.
Explore the city in any season, at any time of day, and in different weather—conditions directly affect the tram’s handling and present new challenges.
WHAT’S AVAILABLE IN EARLY ACCESS
In Early Access you can:
• drive two routes with a total length of about 15 km
• master a classic tram with detailed, functional systems
• test yourself on demanding sections with worn curved rails
• operate the tram in different weather and across seasons
Follow the timetable, feel the inertia of a heavy car, and carefully control your speed to avoid violations.
GAME DEVELOPMENT
The Tram is an atmospheric tram driving simulator created by people passionate about urban transport. Its journey is just beginning, and we would be happy to grow the game together with the community.
In Early Access, the game already includes the core driving mechanics, two routes, and basic simulation systems. In the future, we plan to expand the city map, introduce new trams, add gameplay mechanics, and develop additional routes.
We will be closely following your feedback and suggestions!
