About
Take charge of the Spooky Express; the only rail service willing to carry the undead passengers of deepest, darkest Trainsylvania. In your new role you'll plan routes and lay train tracks to meet your creepy commuters' demands, and create a rail network spanning more than 200 thoughtfully designed levels.
Each monster has a home of their own: take the vampires to their coffins and the zombies to their graves, and escort the interloping humans away before they’re snacked upon. There’s only room for one at a time in the passenger car and the track can’t cross itself, so plot your route carefully, lay the tracks, and don't let the train miss its stops.

Trainsylvania spans a host of unique locations, with each puzzle forming a cosy diorama, complete with spooky soundtrack. Whether you're puzzling through the Pumpkin Patch, meandering through the Morbid Manor, or investigating the Impish Inferno, you'll find playful touches and surprises around every corner.
🦇 An elegant, playful puzzler, jam-packed with monsters and mechanics.
🚂 Thoughtfully designed puzzles which expertly balance complexity and approachability.
🎃 Created by the award-winning designers of A Monster's Expedition, A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build, Cosmic Express and more.
🎨 Featuring several delightful comics from David Hellman and Zac Gorman.
🎵 Accompanied by a haunting soundtrack from Priscilla Snow.

ルーカス・ル・スロ! 知るかぎり最高のパズルデザイナーの一人。
Excellent puzzles all the way through. Easy recommend. I completed it together with my 10y/o and he loved it as well. Easy recommend.
Draknek and Friends games just hit different. They tickle that spot in my brain that needs some brain strain but that also enjoys progression through some fun mechanics. Spooky Express does all that, and gives you plenty of options to extend your brain further and further if you're that way inclined. I still think my from them is the Monster Expedition, and I'd like to see their games play more in that space where there is a bit more narrative built into the gameplay.
比1代作品多了一些新机制,设计的很巧妙。这次没有那么多车厢 但是怪物之间的关系很有趣 强烈推荐
机制很有趣,难度曲线也比较合理友好 [spoiler]多车厢部分非常奇妙,趣味性呈指数级增长,部分超长迷之交互值得反复细品[/spoiler]
Looking forward to rebuying this when it comes to Nintendo Switch.
鉄道を敷いて道中にいる乗客を特定の場所まで届けるパズルゲームです。 作中内では様々なギミックを利用して正解の路線を割り出していきます。 いいところ ・かわいらしいキャラクター達 ホラーをテーマにしつつもグロテスクさは感じないポップな世界観です。 ・実績獲得がお手軽 ステージを進めていればおのずと手に入るものがほとんどです。 ・ギミックが豊富 エリアごとに異なるギミックが使われておりマンネリを感じずにプレイできました。 歯ごたえのあるパズルを求めている方は挑戦してみてください。
[i]I received a free key from the developer[/i] I've played Cosmic Express and Sokobond Express, and I liked both of those (although Cosmic Express got too hard), but I liked Spooky Express a lot more! The puzzles felt more accessible, and the combination of the monster powers/mechanics made it more interesting with it not being just a route building puzzle, but also figuring out what exactly needs to trigger. Some really neat puzzles and also some difficult ones. There's a hint system where it shows you part of the track solution, and that was very helpful. I also loved the presentation of the game - the visuals, music, and the comics for each world! Each world has its own comic that introduces the characters/mechanics of that world, and it's super cute.
achei o jogo uma graça, a arte ta maravilhosa, e bem relaxante, eu que sou desprovida de inteligência fico empacada
A fun and mostly accessible puzzler. If you've played Cosmic Express you know what to expect. I enjoyed CE but I got stuck fairly early on. I was hoping for something more accessible (easier) than CE based on reviews I've read about Spooky Express. Unfortunately, I don't find SE to be easier. For me it is more frustrating at times. In CE, I knew what I had to do, I just couldn't figure out a way to do it. In SE, the interaction combinations and different results became a challenge to remember - do I have to bumb this character type in a certain direction to change into this other character type, or do they both have to jump into the car or ... So the puzzling aspect at times for me in SE was to try and remember these rules. SE is still fun and I recommend it. But I prefer my puzzle games to have more straightforward rules while still being challenging. Overall I am sorry to say that I prefer Cosmic Express.
