"If you love the city-planning aspect of Sim City but can't handle the pressure of playing god, then you may have just found your new favorite time-waster." - Ashley Feinberg, Gizmodo "Take my word for it that a game about mass-transit system design can be a tense, white-knuckle thriller." - Owen Faraday, Pocket Tactics "Mini Metro: fun game simulates planning and running public transit system." - Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing Information Seller:Dinosaur Polo Club Genre:Simulation, Strategy Release:Dec 25, 2015 Updated:Mar 18, 2024 Version:1.54.1 Size:170.2 MB TouchArcade Rating: User Rating: (39) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel DonnyDJ76 Well-Known Member Nov 1, 2011 1,793 55 48 Male Teacher Hackensack, NJ #2 DonnyDJ76, Oct 17, 2016 The video reminds me of Subway Scramble, a great game that was published by Playfirst for the PC years ago.

Sold this evening after work. slamraman Well-Known Member Patreon Gold Aug 27, 2011 2,511 8 38 #7 slamraman, Oct 17, 2016 It's like a guessing game with game center at the minute. Always delighted when it turns it is. Leaderboards for every city (plus city extreme) and days here with plenty of achievements. I picked this up as AndyC83 tweeted about it. What better endorsement!! radge Member Nov 5, 2008 19 0 1 #8 radge, Oct 17, 2016 The tutorial isn't great. Have no idea how to switch the line I'm using or how to delete lines. vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #9 vectorarchitekt, Oct 17, 2016 This is just fantastic. One of those games that will stay on my home screen until it doesn't work anymore Jamesrooney27 Well-Known Member May 13, 2014 541 0 16 Male Uk #10 Jamesrooney27, Oct 17, 2016 That comment got me to buy it lol esty8nine Well-Known Member Dec 21, 2013 1,044 0 0 #11 esty8nine, Oct 17, 2016 Deff picking this one up, I know they were talking about tweaking endless mode and some other things, is this with that ? Or just the desktop version ? Either way I'm looking forward to this vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #12 vectorarchitekt, Oct 17, 2016 It is challenging for sure. I feel like you just don't get enough resources fast enough sometimes no matter how you juggle things. Still trying to balance continuing a line and starting a new one Saucepolicy Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Feb 18, 2009 501 4 18 Crispy ex-game developer #13 Saucepolicy, Oct 17, 2016 Mini Metro launched on Steam last year, if you want to dig into player impressions. 96% positive reviews out of 3,126. kulhy Member Sep 15, 2015 5 0 1 #14 kulhy, Oct 17, 2016 Played this one on desktop for many hours. It is hard, but it's also like just one last try, now I know what was wrong with my previous strategy. Wondering how controls work on touch screens and how well it goes with iPhone screens. orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 2,000 150 63 #15 orangecan, Oct 17, 2016 It really seems to need at least some kind of basic tutorial. I've absolutely no idea what I'm doing beyond trying to link stations with lines. The controls might be great but because I don't know how they work - I've accidentally moved and deleted lines when trying to add them and I'm just generally clueless. I'm going to take a look online cos hopefully there's some kind of guide but as a pick up and play title I'm struggling. Jamesrooney27 Well-Known Member May 13, 2014 541 0 16 Male Uk #16 Jamesrooney27, Oct 17, 2016 After good hour of playing you get to know the game, it still hard but It's so addictive Unstablefan Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Feb 22, 2013 858 12 18 #17 Unstablefan, Oct 17, 2016 No zen mode? cplr Well-Known Member Feb 15, 2011 468 0 0 #18 cplr, Oct 17, 2016 IIRC from the computer version, you can "pick up" any lines previously laid down (unless it's in the super hard mode). You can move them around to optimize what you have, but also if you drop them on empty space (rather than a station), it deletes the line (sort of like the Dock on OS X, if you are familiar with that). Unstablefan Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Feb 22, 2013 858 12 18 #19 Unstablefan, Oct 17, 2016 The touch controls are a little tricky in terms of grabbing the end of the line. orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 2,000 150 63 #20 orangecan, Oct 17, 2016 Had a brief flick through this and it's helped: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=313791555 Got to say it's a strangely hypnotic experience despite my lack of understanding and I'm hoping that I get a proper grasp of it because I do like the cut of its jib.
