Continuation of the pioneering building strategy from the developers of PopTop Software, in which the player has to build a train empire. For its time, the game abounds in an unusually complex, realistic economy and a very high number of maps, locomotives, stations, upgrades, etc. Railroad Tycoon II can be fun online and in single player (campaign, quick scenario), in which you can, but also do not have to measure your powers with virtual magnates. The game captures the beginnings of train transport around 1830, the present and dares to go into the near future (circa 2050). Over time, the game saw the Second Century expansion pack. Railroad Tycoon 2 is a game where you can have a good rest and relax beautifully. No one is shooting at you, you don't have to click frantically, you just build a railway in a nice and relaxed way. You slowly look at where you will build, where you will be importing or what kind of new locomotives are at the moment. A nice country soundtrack plays all the time, which adds strength to the relaxed atmosphere and, of course, nice graphics that are still popular today. It's not always such an idyllic situation, especially in more advanced levels you have to know a little about how it goes, because there are often other competitors on the map with you. Another thing is the economic side of the game, which is quite a difficult task for the uninitiated. It is true, however, that in order to successfully finish the game, one does not need to interfere with it in any way.
