This is a minimalistic logistical puzzle game, GOOD for a few hours and not worth full price IMO. It's a little buggy too. I lost all my saves when I tried to delete JUST one. (I recommend backup your saves) Sometimes things get stuck. A restart usually fixes it.
PUZZLE GAME FIRST
If you go into this realizing Transport INC is more a puzzle game rather than a sandbox logistics game you should get along fine with it.
NO CUSTOM ROUTE/DEMAND CREATION (like Transport Fever)
Important to note that you cannot create demand or routes to any city you desire because the game randomly sets up the demand (and weirdly I might add) to random cities at the start of a game. (How it sets this up is not related to real life city size either - small cities can get a lot of demand while large cities get less)
FREE PLAY MODE
In this mode you can set your starting cash amount. What vehicles you want available. Whether you want competitors or not.
FIRST TWO CHAPTERS OF STORY MODE IS TUTORIAL
There is a free play mode but you must do the first couple missions/CHAPTERS of the Story (Tutorial) to unlock Free Play mode
(or hold shift key).
Simple game worth a buy under $4

A fun time filler - gets a little repetitive and a few bugs but overall a good experience.

In this game you will at least learn something about logistics, and the story line is somewhat warm heart story because it is not common to have a story between Father and Son.

Bought the game on discount. Games ok to good, very basic. The DLC however I would not buy. It's quite a bit more boring then the base game and for some reason it's horribly badly programmed - I got to the second american sea stage and saves went from <1 second to taking a good 30-60 seconds each every about 3 minutes. I didn't finish due to that.

The game is fun, but neither intuitive nor funcional on all options. Would be nice some adjusts to make it more realistic, but its still fun

its is good for the price, but for a game that is based on geography there are far too many mistakes... for example, estonia somehow doesn't have a capital (it should be tallinn -- it is writen "talin" in game which is also wrong)

I like management games, you like management games, and managing shipping lanes and transport systems is just like work, it is great :D
