Mashinky

Mashinky is a transport strategy game in which you build and manage a transport company on a procedurally generated map. You lay tracks across difficult terrain, buy and research vehicles, manage routes and transport passengers and cargo to make a profit under the game’s economic rules.

Build your network

In isometric construction mode, you plan routes on a grid-based map. Connecting two stations can mean laying a simple track, while more complex networks use junctions and signals to improve efficiency and performance. Changes to the traffic layout form a series of construction puzzles.

As your company grows, you can upgrade industries, stations and depots, and equip trains with new engines and special wagons. Upgrades can increase capacity, introduce new processing rules or add cargo types, giving you options for shaping your network’s strategy.

Watch your trains

You can leave construction mode at any time to view the network in the 3D landscape. Ride one of your trains or watch the network operate from different perspectives.

Eras and expansion

The game includes the first five of seven eras. Each era brings new industries and vehicles, while villages grow into cities and new infrastructure and upgrades become available. The eras span from the Age of Steam toward the modern world and the future. Steam trains carry cargo such as coal and wood; maglev trains delivering futuristic electronics are also described as a future addition.
