I have been playing this game on and off for a cpl months (moved as well so that didnt help with the gameplaying, lol) but once you get a few levels into this, its quite a good game, if you are into tycoon games). The first level is of course a basic tutorial, and very easy to finish. The idea of this is to run your freight company and complete the given task within the timespan you are allowed. This at times can be difficult on normal difficulty, so I have had to pass a few levels on easy :(. This in itself makes for an interesting game as some levels are a breeze, while some levels are painfully hard. I think the idea of this was a unique one in the overfull tycoon genre, but I dont think it was overly well executed. The difficulty level should have been more even for the skill level selected. Overall I personally think this is a good game, and well worth a look for any tycoon enthusiasts we have on here.
