UNRAILED!
Unrailed! is a chaotic online and couch co-op multiplayer railroad construction game where you work together with your friends as a team to build a train track across endless procedurally generated worlds. Master encounters with its inhabitants, upgrade your train and keep it from derailing! Gather resources and craft tracks to extend your railroad to prevent your train from reaching the end. But watch out – there is only one tool of each type. Co-operation and co-ordination of your team is essential to survive this increasingly challenging journey! Every world is unique! You and your team will have to master ever new challenges to stay on track! Upgrade your train to be prepared for whatever is about to come.

Never before had a dev respond to any feedback or even support requests with anything but an automatic message saying "no" in a lot of fancy words.
When I had problems with this game I was contacted within hours I and only little time later the game was bootable and after that additional bugfixes where made available. I am a lot more confident in the Steam Deck build now. I hope more people test it and report.
Thanks to the dev team.

Awesome devs. Helped me for over an hour on discord trying to figure out why I couldn't run the game. In the end it was some issue with a corrupt registry I had so it wasn't even the game's fault. Fixing that actually even helped me get rid of a slew of different crashing issues I had with other applications. Great devotion to their community!

Unrailed!—the game where you and your friends build a train track in real-time, racing against the clock to keep the train from derailing into the abyss. Sounds relaxing, right? WRONG. It’s like a stressful train-themed nightmare, but somehow, it’s also ridiculously fun.
If you like trains, this game is for you. If you don’t like trains, well... you’re about to develop a love-hate relationship with them. You and your crew will be frantically chopping trees, mining rocks, and laying tracks, all while the train just keeps chugging along, ready to crash into whatever obstacle you didn’t clear in time. And let me tell you, the panic sets in fast.
The game quickly turns into a chaotic mess of shouting things like, "WE NEED MORE TRACKS!" and "WHO SET THE FOREST ON FIRE?!" (pro tip: keep an eye on your train’s water supply, or you’ll find yourself in a fiery disaster). It’s a game where teamwork is essential, but if one of your friends decides to go rogue or get distracted by something shiny, the whole operation falls apart faster than a Jenga tower.
Stressful? Absolutely. But also addictive and full of meme-worthy moments like accidentally running over your own track and screaming "TRAIN!!!" at the top of your lungs.
Randy Rating: 4.4/5 — Love trains? You’ll love this. Hate stress? Too bad—you’ll be building tracks like your life depends on it.

I always come back to Unrailed on a random day at 2 or 3 am. It has a very simple game loop: Break stuff, carry materials, build tracks, place tracks, and try to not make a bad choice while doing any of that. This loop makes my brain turn off as I automatically follow the simple instructions, and it can be a bit addictive at times. I love when I play with strangers too, despite there not being much communication. It's just Me and three strangers, chilling at 3 am, building tracks to move forward in a silly train game. I decided to write this because I love the amount of support the game was given. The game had been given tons of support until the sequel was released. Even after the sequel, both games are very distinct gameplay-wise, and there is very good reason to play both. Personally, I appreciate the complexity that is introduced throughout the first game as it increases in difficulty.

As a father of a 4 year old this is a brilliant same screen co-op cosy game about building railways. Teaches team-work, focus under pressure, problem solving and route planning. Each level lasts 5-10 minutes depending on how direct you want to make your track and there are secret upgrades hidden throughout the levels if you plan ahead. The vibe is mostly pretty chill and industrious, though if you accidentally route your train through a canyon or forget to give yourself room to work around it, things can become a little hectic!
Simple controls (there's a bot you can direct with a context wheel in single player mode, but in co-op you only need one "interact" button) It has a really cute isometric style that appeals to myself as a gamer from the 80s and the kiddo as it looks a bit like lego, and there's lots of replayability as the map is randomly generated each time.
Simple, but still worth a full price purchase when you consider how tricky it is to find this kind of game that appeals to both adults and young kids. Could also work as a party game for adults if you crank up the difficulty a bit. We've had a fun hour or so with wifey and the 2 year old (who's *not* old enough to play yet) yelling directions at one another. DEFINITELY worth bagging it if you enjoy a cosy game and you spot it for half price.

I'll still leave a positive review despite really being unable to get into this game, I see the merit to it and I see how fun it could be with a group of people, but I just dont personally enjoy stuff like this, building the train is fun but this is one of those games that you can only really play with friends and you can only really get into it if you're already in the mood

A good Game to play once or twice a Year
