Summary
Loco Mania is a fast paced, quick thinking, strategy game that puts you in charge of an entire railway network. Take on the role of a train dispatcher and test your skills through a multitude of tasks from getting your trains to their stations on time to guiding biohazard-laden freight trains safely to their destination.
Successfully clearing the trains through the railway system improves your score and unlocks maps to take the game through progressively challenging levels. Loco Mania will feature 12 maps each inspired by various European landscapes designed to provide a unique gameplay experience.
As you get better, the environments get trickier and the challenges become greater. Gameplay modes include Time Attack, Checkpoint and Free Run. The faster you complete the challenges the higher you score. You can even pit yourself against other players and upload and compare your scores in a 24/7 online competition. So stay on track!
