You have many different trains available and from what I understand some are more accurate than others. I found the routes in Japan to be much more interesting and it was kind of fun to see the world go by as you were in control of one of these massing machines. You have routes in Japan, the USA, and the UK. There are a decent number of routes in the game and from the research my ignorant self did, people who are into this kind of thing seem to be happy with the level of authenticity that some of these routes have. I am not knocking those folks at all, but it is something I have not ever been interested in so to be fair I am sure much of the appeal of what makes this great is lost on me. Trying to get the best rank on each one is what you are working towards.Ĭlearly, Microsoft Train Simulator is a game that is aimed at people who are train enthusiasts. This can be coming to a stop at the right time, getting from a to b, or just hauling some freight. Instead, you are tasked with doing various missions/things while you are in control of the trains. There is no what you could call a campaign here. I am trying to think about what the actual point of the game is.
