Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Sep 3 → 0.43/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 21 → 0.6/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Craft your dream railway line in locomotive sandbox Islands and Trains. From pootling past a seaside village to winding a track through wintery forests, this little story is yours to tell.
Design a train route around the island of your dreams and watch your diorama come to life. Go off the beaten track, winding around mountains and crossing lakes. Place animals and edit the surrounding countryside to your liking. There’s no goals, no timers, no missions, and no mistakes - just happy accidents.
We were inspired by beloved games such as Islanders, Dorfromantik and Townscaper.

Cozy little train game - spent 2 hours solid placing sheep on a hill :)
My 5 year old loves this game and is using it to learn keyboard and mouse and using the computer solo. However, it’s clear the game is very well suited for younger players but the interface has not been tested with then. Frequently it becomes a very frustrating experience. Often mouse buttons are overloaded with interactions, especially click to drag interactions on top of crucial functions. Selecting a train track can be very frustrating for a younger player who clicks and accidentally drags the menu instead of selecting the track he wanted. It happens repeatedly in a session that my 5yo clicks something he wants and doesn’t understand why it’s not working. The same happens with rotating pieces. Click to drag on middle mouse moves the world view but also rotates pieces, making it very frustrating when the pieces just won’t rotate because he clicks slightly too long or moves the mouse a small amount. The issue feels like the controls are halfway between touch and mouse conventions. I’d love if the developers would pull back on overloading some of the inputs and make it less frustrating for my 5yo because this is his favorite game to play.

Нет никакого генератора миров. Тебе дают море. Сам построй сушу, потом сделай ландшафт, потом придумай историю. Нанеси дома, от домов проведи железную дорогу... В общей гейм дизайнеры решили не заморачиваться. Не рекомендую. Написано игра чтобы расслабиться, но не написано что для того чтобы расслабиться, сначала нужно сильно напрячься.
👉 Ce jeu de construction bac-à-sable est basé sur les trains et leur cheminement. Rien n'empêche de créer de sublimes décors uniquement. Il y a plusieurs thèmes de base et beaucoup d'assets de décoration et de construction pour pouvoir être satisfait pleinement, en l'état. Pour ma part, j'aimerai avoir: - l'option caméra libre; - la vue aérienne, façon carte: - une vue cabine/locomotive, (un peu comme Planet Coaster); - la possibilité d'avoir des collisions d'objets; - la possibilité de positionner librement des rails sous les ouvrages d'arts (c'est impossible actuellement et c'est très dommage!); - un mod photo; - la possibilité d'avoir les commandes des trains et des aiguillages pour gérer les transports. Bon! Il ne faut pas croire qu'on s'ennuie, mais ces options seraient vraiment un must. J'espère que des DLC viendront aussi, à l'avenir. Il serait appréciable d'avoir de nouvelles thématisations comme: western, urbaine et pourquoi pas post apocalyptique. 👉 This sandbox construction game is based on trains and their routes. Nothing prevents you from creating beautiful scenery only. There are several basic themes and many decorative and construction assets to be fully satisfied as it stands. For my part, I would like to have: - a free camera option; - an aerial view, map-like; - a cabin/locomotive view (a bit like Planet Coaster); - the possibility of object collisions; - the ability to freely position tracks under artworks (this is currently impossible and very unfortunate!); - a photo mode; - the ability to control trains and switches to manage transportation. Well! One shouldn't think we're bored, but these options would really be a must. I hope that DLCs will also come in the future. It would be nice to have new themes such as: western, urban, and why not post-apocalyptic.
Islands & Trains. Ein charmantes Aufbauspiel, bei dem man seine eigenen, kleinen Welten mit Zügen erstellen kann. [h1] Die Idee [/h1] In "Islands & Trains" beginnt man mit einer leeren Welt und baut sie nach und nach seinen Vorstellungen entsprechend auf. Ein genaues Vorgehen wird nicht gegeben, denn der eigenen Kreativität soll freien Lauf gelassen werden. Je nachdem, wie viel Liebe zum Detail man in seine Welten stecken möchte, kann man mehrere Stunden in den Bau der Landschaft, der Strecken oder der Details investieren. [h1] Das Gameplay [/h1] Wie eben schon angeschnitten handelt "Islands & Trains" voll und ganz von der eigenen Kreativität sich eine kleine Welt aufzubauen, durch die später ein oder mehrere Züge fahren können. Dies beginnt mit dem groben und feinen Bau der Landschaft, der Berge und der Kanten der Insel und hört mit dem Platzieren von Bänken, Lichtern und Zäunen auf. Es gibt eine große Auswahl an platzierbaren Gegenständen. Auch wenn man schon in Weihnachtsstimmung ist, kann man sich mit dem neuen Update austoben und sein eigenes "Winter Wonderland" erstellen. [h1] Der Preis [/h1] "Islands & Trains" kostet in der Regel ein wenig unter 7€. Für solch ein kleines Spiel, was von einem ebenfalls kleinen Entwicklerstudio kommt, ist dies absolut gerechtfertigt. Ich selbst habe allein in eine einzige Welt zwei Stunden investiert und bin noch nicht vollständig zufrieden damit. Selbst wenn der Preis für jemanden weiterhin zu hoch ist, kann dieser mit einem Rabatt auf 4,13€ sinken. [h1] Das Fazit [/h1] "Islands & Trains" ist ein wunderschönes, kleines Aufbauspiel, in dem der Kreativität keine Grenzen gesetzt werden. Es verzichtet vollständig auf Zeitlimits, Quests oder sonstige nervenaufreibende Aufgaben und konzentriert sich vollständig auf ein entspanntes Erlebnis, perfekt bei großer Hektik für zwischendurch. Mit platzierter Landschaft und verlegter Schiene empfehle ich "Islands & Trains" weiter!
It's got islands, it's got trains. 10/10 for accurate title. But seriously, the best thing about this game is how quickly it lets you create. There's a SUPER quick tutorial (like, 2 minutes, tops) and then the sandbox is utterly and completely yours. There's nothing to unlock, nothing you have to grind for or wait to access; everything is yours to do with as you please the very second the tutorial ends, and it's so refreshing. Multiple save slots too. Create an island, hit save and start a new one, rinse and repeat. This game just lets you create fun little islands with fun little train routes and fun little towns, and it's everything I wanted from a game called "Islands and Trains." Very easy recommend.
-- Recomendable -- Sí, si te gusta el modelismo de trenes, o hacer maquetas de trenes y ver como se van moviendo. -- Jugabilidad -- Bastante bien hecha, tiene un monton de piezas y de diferentes tipos de vías a diferentes alturas como para hacer circuitos muy chulos. -- Gráficos -- Muy cucos y adorables, si te haces una isla bonita puedes tenerlo de wallpaper mientras haces otras cosas y es precioso.
este juego alimenta mi autismo, me encanta
I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee itttttttttttt, it's like Dorfromantik but a million times better! Its the game I always wished existed! I love everything about it and it makes me so happy :)
This game is an absolute GEM. It's simple enough to be a vibe game but complicated enough to make very detailed scenes. Its got a small install size and costs less than most fast food orders. 10/10 so far. My only wish was that there was a night time setting, dynamic building lights if possible for night time, and some sort of life to the towns like little people milling about or something. Just to really flush out the lived in feel of the towns.
