Oh, that is ridiculous. It's so sweet! Look at the tiny little tram go by!

Oh so cute! I love this genre of game. See also Townscaper (previously) and Dorfromantik. Both of those are a little more fleshed out as games though, with some complexity. OTOH this one has trams which add an awful lot, neat idea.

Townscaper has a bit of a puzzle game where depending on how you place and stack the items you get all sorts of fun elaborate buildings. I found one in Tramstertram, a church, are there others? Tram bridges too, sorta.

This is great! I may even have done something I never thought possible: laid down too many tram tracks.

Awesome. Townscaper has more polished graphics, but with this you can vary the type of building, something Townscaper really, really needs. Nice post!

As a transit nerd who just visited Amsterdam and will never shut up about it, I've never felt so laser-targeted by a game. Thanks for sharing!
