Trains are back with a bang : Rail Maze (Android)




We all have played with toy trains atleast for once in our childhood. The best part of it being that we were able to make up our own haphazard tracks and experiment train runs on them. For those of you who miss that, don’t worry. This game brings back that childhood action in a very beautiful way.

Introduction

Developed by Spooky House Studios UG , Rail Maze is a unique puzzle game which brings in thrill of a train and logics of a typical puzzle.

Game Story

As most of the puzzle games this game also does not have a strong background story. Your only goal is to run your train from start to finish by adjusting the tracks for the train and escaping pirate trains which are there to collide with your train.

Game Play

The game has intuitive controls , meaning that you can easily understand all the controls from a single one. You tap an intersection or joint to change its direction and pave your path. The game menu is perfectly laid out and in game navigation is quite smooth. There are 100s of unique puzzles and railroad building challenges which would bind you to the game.

Game Performance

The game is fast considering loading time and lags, running very swiftly on medium and high end devices. The graphics are life like and physics are professionally built into the game. It has very appropriate background score and beautiful in game sound effects. I haven’t encountered force closes with the game yet and neither should you.

Conclusion

Its a fairly difficult and addictive game. You can easily spend hours playing it without having any clue about the time. You can downlload it for free from Google Play Store Link Here

The game trailer is attached below.
