Railroad Tycoon 2 - Original
Ride the Iron Horse
It can take you from New York to South Africa. It can take you from the year
1804 to the year 2000. It can take you from penniless manual laborer to powerful
multi-millionaire. It can take you from a normal, well-adjusted, well-rounded
person to an obsessed, singled-minded, one-tracked trainhead.
This is a real railroad game, not just a strategy game that happens to
involve railroads. If you want to hop on a plane, car or ship, hop on another
game. This game is about trains for people who love trains. Everything about the
game is centered around an authentic look and feeling of the railways. Period
video and pictures are interlaced with the game. The design and interface are
true to the character of the fabled late 1800's railroads. A.I. opponents are
based on real people. And all maps are real (based on satellite photography from
US Geological Service and other sources).
All Aboard!
The sequel to the legendary Railroad Tycoon, Railroad Tycoon II, puts gamers

Street plunderers lets players test their entrepreneurial prowess.
