About

Battle Train brings classic roguelite design to the tracks with fast-paced duels, branching paths, and floor-based progression packed with bosses, special events, and escalating stakes.
Each run is a strategic loop of resource management, risk-reward decisions, and deck refinement as you unlock powerful cards, new characters, and upgrades in the evolving metagame.

In Battle Train, strategy isn't just in your hand, it’s under your wheels.
Connect your tracks to your opponents’ outposts and blast them before they do the same to you.
Every piece of track matters: special rails boost your trains, barricades slow down enemies, and bombs can swing the tide with a single move.
Positioning is power, but so is control. Claim resource mines for turn-based income, steal enemy tracks to cut their flow, or detonate their plans with explosive abilities.

Adapt your playstyle in every run and then push it further, with evolving card rewards and powerful upgrades that shape your strategy turn by turn.
Your train is a full-blown war machine built from swappable parts, each offering unique stat boosts, passive effects, mineral gains, or disruptive abilities.

As a contender, you’ll face a madcap gauntlet of rival Champions, explosive challenges, and surprise rewards.
Meet eccentric hosts, unlock unexpected lore, and witness the downfall of Supreme Champion Aalvado.
Whether you're in it for the 15-hour story mode or 100+ hours of replayability, Battle Train is a tale of redemption, rivalry, and rekindling your creative passion… through destruction!

Si vous aimez les rogues like et les "puzzles", battle train est fait pour vous. J'ai acheté le jeu juste pour tester et j'ai était convaincu des le tuto. c'est simple à comprendre et la difficulté est assez bien dosé. Par contre soyez près à farmer pour voir la fin du jeu c'est l'un des seules points que j'aurais à lui reprocher. On passe du bon temps. Une bonne découverte de l'année je vous encourage à le tester.
Schönes Gelegenheitsspiel
This is cute silly puzzle game. It's great for general distraction and a smile or two
While the story is a bit slow to get through, the turn based strategy card roguelike with train elements is explosive fun.
FUN game but some major design issues. Good first: This game is actually a lot of fun, the puzzle piece design of tracks is an interesting mechanic, and its always satisfying to actually fill up space the most efficient way while also blocking your own stuff while also reaching into enemy territory but not too much at the same time... it offers a lot of really interesting play / counterplay and general strategy. HOWEVER, This game's progression is designed in a way where it feels like it does not want you to play it. The hard lock progress barriers are SO ANNOYING. And so obvious too. Its the main thing that makes this game hard to come back to. The first time you play, you will maybe beat the first boss? Unlikely, but even if you do you definitely wont have the cards or HP left to get very far in the next stage, and most definitely not have good enough cards to do enough damage. And who designed this path choice system? choose from one of three routes at the beginning... then keep going on that path until the boss? Why even bother? And, once again, the game pretty much forces you to just always choose the path of least resistance, because the risk reward for fighting enemies is never worth it. Lose a bunch of your hard to recover health for some gold and a card? When I can just choose the route that gives me a bunch of free cards and gold with no fights? Lol. And back to the forced progression. What prompted me to leave the review is that, on my third go, I was doing really well, and scraped by after defeating mr tesla. It was a good fight, and I was ready to go after that and maybe die to the boss man. BUT NO. the game said, uh, your ARBITRARY score is 200 points too low to even keep playing... ????????? What the hell?????? who would do that? why would I fight tesla, if I was just going to lose anyways? like seriously... Game shoots itself in the foot tremendously every step of the way, but the core mechanics are fun enough to balance that out. So just treat it more like a linear arcade game rather than an intelligent roguelite/like and its a lot less frustrating. But yeah... the score was ridiculous. extremely stupid mechanic. Especially since there is no indication of this score anywhere until you get there. Why not give me a chance to up my score before fighting, especially if its 200 points off? (it was 11,701 / 11,900 points to proceed). Ridiculous.
