Very cute and cozy
Perfect for just something different. Very fun and 100% would recommend. Thank you Devs for this Gem!!
A Bumpy Ride is a wonderful cozy game with a lot of charm and nostalgia! I’m not sure why but I kept thinking about ToonTown when I was playing this, even though the game isn’t similar at all. It just invoked a familiar feeling in my mind the whole time I was playing. I especially loved the mischievous moments in game when we were encouraged to be a menace to society. (Optionally.) The design and art is beautiful. I watched my lovely friend, Saby, work hard on the art for ABR for the last couple of years and I couldn’t be more proud of her and the amazing work she did! Congratulations to her and the rest of the team for making this game. I would highly recommend anyone who would like a relaxing time with some whimsy and silliness sprinkled in to play this game! I did have some issues I came across, but these things didn’t hinder or sour my experience at all. And perhaps this may have only been unique to me. [spoiler]I did think that the credits rolled very abruptly. I had unlocked the final area in game but I hadn’t explored there yet, so the credits rolling felt really sudden. I don’t really mind there being no real ‘end’ to the game but the credits felt out of place. There felt like a missing event that should have happened before they rolled.[/spoiler] My final issues would only effect other achievement hunters, like myself. So feel free to ignore past this part if you aren’t interested in 100%ing the game. [spoiler]I had completed all achievement except for two. Traveler – Travel 1000 Miles and Experienced – Reach Day 50. At this point I had traveled 761 Miles and was on Day 24. I believe these achievement could be shorten to 800 Miles and Day 30. My only options were to drive in a circle until the Traveler achievement popped. And then start a day, back up into the train port to end the day 20 times in a row for Experienced to pop. I could have played each day normally but realistically there wasn’t anything to do that I hadn’t done already and I just wanted to 100% the game. If anything, I just wish there was more to do because I really enjoyed the game. Again this could have just been a me thing. I don’t know how others experiences with the game went so maybe I somehow progressed farther than most people, who knows.[/spoiler] Regardless, my option on ABR still stands. It’s a lovely little gem and it is worth a play! 9/10!
Honestly its the perfect game to open up after a long day at work, plus the fact that there is a train paint to make it look like Thomas is amazing!!! I would love if eventually there were more biomes and missions added in the future!
I like the Gameplay and the different locomotive skins tough the gameplay in some points feels boring and kind of like "well I have everything... Now what?". the amount of skins seems a bit small BUT I understand that this game took a while to complete and also making the skins also takes some time but the current selection feels a bit Limited. The Locomotive we play with in the game is ADORABLE! And I love it with all my heart! One thing I think that would make the game better is if you could make a custom Engineer. You would still have the main three engineers but if at the end of the game you could make a custom engineer THAT would be cool! All in all I love this Game! Though some things could either be tweaked or improved.
I love how cozy it is, and the music is perfect for each environment! If I could play this all over again without any knowledge, I'd do it in a heart beat. 100000000000/10
This game is a first person train game! The graphics can be set to pixelated or not which I like. You drive passengers, and later on goods, to different towns in different areas - and have to adjust your driving accordingly. The game is abSOlutely cute and cosy but exercises your planning and strategy skills too. I am hoping for lots of DCLs for this one! My new favourite train game!
sure
