Railroad Tycoon 3

I've been looking for a modern day successor to this game and find myself coming back to Railroad Tycoon 3. No game in 23yrs has been able to combine transportation + economic sim + business management aspects better than RRT3... fortunately or unfortunately...

[h3]TLDR: Excellent Game, but Buyer Beware[/h3] Railroad Tycoon 3 is old enough to drink. It was made for computers that have been outdated for quite some time. Because of its age and niche popularity, 2K has made no effort to support the game or update it for modern systems. I've played this on two computers so far. On one, it ran without issue; on the other, it took minimal troubleshooting to get it to actually run. You'll probably want to pass on this one if you don't feel like doing that. It's not a certainty, but it is a risk. If you can get the game to work, It's one of the best tycoon games out there.

Game no longer works after upgrades of windows. Dont bother paying for this. Happy to change review once this issue is resolved. Unable to play for last year. Support is not much help either.

Still works if you dowload the fix https://www.gamepressure.com/download/railroad-tycoon-3-vistaw7w8w11-mod/za14c99

everything and they should remake the exact version

Kind of broken on Windows but works great on Linux. Good strategy and management elements with nice graphics that still hold up

Doesnt work worth ♥♥♥♥ and the user interface is horrible, little control over anything

Works great on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS outside of some resolution issues in the main menu.

The economy simulation is very fun, even if the graphics are dated. Look up a tutorial for fixing the crashes and resolution and afterwards it runs fine even on Windows 11

might be mostly nostaliga for me but its still fun do make sure you got a relatively up to date pc though the game is old and should run fine on a potatoe but the port to actually make it run on anything newer on win xp seems shaky on win 10 though i personally only have limited computrs to really test this out with
