Railways! is a Puzzle/Simulation game from INFINITY GAMES, LDA, first launched in 7th April 2020.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 70+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Railways! Stand Out
Do you have a refined taste for games?
Are you searching for the ultimate immersive experience in mobile games?
Why do you pour the milk before the cereal? Ouch, wrong chat.
If you answered positively to the first two questions, Railways will certainly suit your interests. From the makers of Traffix, Railways is a simulation game where you have trains, passengers and railways. Your goal is to move the trains strategically between the tracks, picking up the passengers and preventing crashes. Your mission is complete when you collect all the passengers.
Mind the gap and start managing your railways!
To manage the trains like a master, you have to learn how to:
- Stop a train for a limited time with a single tap;
- Drag the train to create a new track;
- Automatically pick up nearby passengers and fill the trains;
- Avoid running over passengers when changing the route;
- Prevent crashes between trains.
Railways features minimalist and artistic elements merged in an immersive experience where the perks of a train trip are emphasized: astonishing landscapes observed at a slow pace. Each level will bring a new challenge to the track, more chaos and of course clever moves from your side. All aboard! This train is ready to depart!
How much time can you keep the trains moving? Find out now!
This new game by Infinity Games is a magnificent train simulator where patience is a virtue. In order to succeed, you need to wait for the right moment and use your skills to drag the trains from one railway to another. You know that you will lose if the trains collide but you also know that you have all the time in the world to make a smart move. Furthermore, you can also stop the trains for a while.
If you have the patience of a monk, you will have a great time with Railways!
If you are an impatient person, you can use Railways to improve those skills!
Features:
- Premium look and artistic features: you will not just play a mobile game. You will behold a masterpiece!
- Immersive gameplay: after a couple of levels, you will find yourself absorbed by Railways imaginary world.
- Curated levels crafted by train conductors: Railways levels were designed by train conductors with +10 years of experience.
- Multiple achievements to conquer: picking up the passengers is just the beginning.

Community Insight:
Its the same song over and over again.
Great concept. Controls are still inconsistent. Also, the app has to be shut down and restarted every time we exit the game. If the controls can be fixed its a home run. Hope they keep working on it. UPDATE: they sent us an email and addressed the issues. We reloaded and played and works great. Having fun again.
You guys rock. Thanks for the fix.
Simple and fun. A few bugs to work out, but mostly need more levels.
It's so fun and simple game Thank you,.
The control to stop a train (tapping on the engine) does not always work. We think the target area for the tap should be enlarged. We enjoy the game, its just frustrating that that one control can be iffy, especially in later levels when the train is moving fast.
Fun game but really buggy. The game freezes if you use Notification Center, control center, multitasking, go to the Home Screen, or a notification shows.
Needs some tweaking to make it more realistic but its a good start.
This is a great concept and almost works. The controls/directions work sometimes but not others so a lot of frustration. Biggest problem is the game crashes all the tome so we have to reboot the phone to get it to work. We like the game but a lot of hassle to play.
This mesmerizing game is so fun. Love the graphics. This is one game that we didnt want to turn the sound off…music was comforting. In a week we had all the levels complete. We want more or at least recommendations for games like this one.
Fun p but there are some bugs. Don't swipe down to Notification Center to see what time it is because the game UI will stop responding and require a force quit. Track jumping could be more forgiving–several cases where jumping across tracks is straightforward, but the game says it's not allowed to, but sometimes it is. It's inconsistent. Last, we think it should be possible to lay track or reroute trainers before they come back around the other side of the map instead of having to wait for the train to appear before it can re rerouted.
Made it to level 5, at which point the controls became so non-responsive that the level is effectively unplayable. Been skimming other reviews, though, so good news, apparently thats how its supposed to be! So Im gonna go ahead and uninstall it.
We love the idea and simplicity behind the game. Unfortunately the mechanics are not fully tuned. Ill tap to stop a train, sometimes multiple taps, and it acts like no input. Same with routing changes, every five or so attempts where Ill tap and drag will react as though there is no input.
Dont write many reviews, but thought it was time. Short and not so sweet. Controls are awful, which makes the game pretty much unplayable after about 4-5 levels. Should be free, although still wouldnt be worth it. Will wait and see if the developers fix this mess.
Can not get into game, it crashes on main screen every time we load it.
But the home bar gets in the way so we keep swiping out of the game. A terrible waste of money.
People complaining about the game mechanics are just bad at games. They'd be better off with tic tac toe. Each level is thoughtfully designed and a fun challenge. Smooth gameplay, visually stimulating, and addicting. Only 30 levels right now, so we're hoping more show up soon.
We are not sure we believe those that completed all levels in a couple of days. For the developers, the randomness of whether a train will stop behind the train ahead of it takes each game from being skill to just lucky. If this was fixed, we believe it would be more enjoyable and less frustrating.
Only 30 levels, not worth the money.
We enjoyed playing, but beat the whole thing in a few days. Not worth the purchase.
The game response time is slow. Very sensitive to the right position to touch. Wish we could get us money back.
The controls are sluggish and unpredictable. You cant create track until your train has come back around to the beginning, so its hard to make and execute plans you wait around a lot for your trains to be controllable. And the crash heuristic is unpredictable will the rear train stop and wait? Or plough right into the front train? Its impossible to know. Edit: had to drop another star when we got to level 4. Its just impossible to draw the track to where you want it to go. Reallyso close to a cool game, yet so far.
Well it looked interesting but the game crashes when you try to play the first level. Hope you can sort the problem quickly.
