A card-based train builder where every card can be a locomotive, cargo, or cash.
Who it's for
Engine-building fans who want more player interaction than the genre usually offers, in a compact one-hour package.
Not for you if…
You prefer a purely solitary engine-builder with no interaction — here, helping opponents' trains for a bonus is baked into the core loop.
Vibe's take
Busy and interactive despite being a solo-friendly engine builder — you're constantly deciding whether to grow your own train or poke at someone else's for a quick bonus.
Isle of Trains: All Aboard puts you in charge of a growing locomotive, where every card can be a train car, a building, or the currency to pay for either. You load cargo, ferry passengers to their destinations for bonuses, and, cheekily, dump goods onto opponents' trains for a quick reward, before racing to complete the most contracts.
