Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up

Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up is a station-management game set beneath the bustling city of Lubdon Town. You build and run a metro station to help commuters get to work on time, managing the systems and crowds that keep it operating.

Design your station

Build up to four floors deep, connecting entrances to tracks with stairs, escalators and lifts. Arrange the layout for efficiency and use the crowd-flow mechanic to direct commuters. You can build a single station or expand into a whole network, across procedurally generated maps and daily challenges.

Manage the systems

The simulation covers refuse, power and heat, crowd control, and a consumer-driven economy with stock and pricing. You can unlock equipment and facilities ranging from turnstiles, tools and ticket machines to pharmacies, pubs, ponds and plants.

Handle commuters and staff

Station-wide events include rat plagues and football matches, while vandals, hoodlums and norovirus can also cause trouble. Hire rookie staff and level them up, or hire experienced specialists such as a master mopper, medic or mechanic. A job-grid system lets you prioritise their tasks.
