Reviews
Fun take on Railroading Tycoon builder. Takes a while to figure out how the system works but definitely worth buying.
I absolutely loved Railway Empire 1, but the sequel is a huge letdown for me. Despite playing on a MateBook Pro X (which handled the first game without any issues), Railway Empire 2 is practically unplayable. Even after lowering the resolution and putting all settings to the absolute minimum, the game suffers from constant lagging and stuttering. Optimization aside, the new UI is a step backward. It feels cluttered, unintuitive, and frankly, it looks worse than the clean interface of the original game. I spent more time fighting the settings and the lag than actually enjoying the trains. If you have a mid-range laptop or loved the simplicity and polish of the first game, be careful with this one. I'm going back to RE1.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 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.

Die Grafik ist hervorragend. Das bauen der Schienen funktioniert gut. Die Erweiterung mit den DLC's ist eine gute Idee. Leider ist das schon alles was ich positiv erwähnen kann. Zu Beginn lässt sich das Spiel zwar gut spielen, aber die Probleme häufen sich sehr schnell. Die Simulation der Wirtschaft ist sehr schlecht umgesetzt. Man verliert schon nach sehr kurzer Spielzeit die Übersicht über sein Imperium. Das Städtewachstum ist unglaublich schnell und absolut unrealistisch. Railroad Tycoon 3 hat zwar eine völlig veraltete Grafik, aber die Wirtschaftssimulation ist um Welten besser als bei diesem neuen Game. Es ist doch sehr enttäuschen, dass neue Games häufig nur noch mit der Grafik punkten können.
epstein list when?
runs so bad it ajoke, , zero trip on how it builds u need to work it out yourself zero hel[ dont buy
The game is fun, complex but with a steep learning curve. Do not buy this game unless you enjoy railroad tycoon and capitalism.
Just relax and enjoy building some roads my man! It may be odd but I love just planning and expanding my network
I have enjoyed the game for the most part, but even though this is small complaint, the first Railway Empire had products that were from the specific country/region, but now they are all the same regardless of the area.
Overall really good management/strategy game. I liked it better than the first version despite what some of the comments are saying. The worst part is the NPCs that you compete against-- very annoying dialogue. Some more soundtrack variety would also be an improvement
Great fun and challenging ways to optimise production.
