Mini Metro is a puzzle strategy video game developed by New Zealand indie development team Dinosaur Polo Club. Players are tasked with constructing an efficient rail transit network for a rapidly growing city. The game's visual style makes use of bold colours and simple geometry to replicate the appearance of modern transit maps. The game uses a procedural audio system to generate sounds based on the player actions and transit network, with inspiration from works of minimal music.

Runs well on modern hardware.

its so fun to reconfigure all your lines in one great big sweep when ur about to lose and then watch all the stations fix themselves
This game pushes players to play a certain strategy to keep a high score. I am aware that this is an indie game with few devs but behind the flat simple design, it has an utter poor game design that lacks room for player creativity. Metro Motorway also has the same problem and it looks like the limit for the devs' competence. Aside from having colour popping flat design it does not have range for casual gamers Yeah the station logic is pretty much to trash players not challenge us to find a solution with several ways to approach. I am certain the devs haven't tested how station spawn is logical for flowing gameplay since it either trolls spawning identical shapes and after some time some stations will urge trains when it already is a hustle to remap for solutions. Another crappy game design covered with pretty flat design art from incompetent devs using "indie" as an excuse. Alluding players to play in few certain way trash design. Pokemon had way more options to approach and this simple game is trash for forcing players to certain method.
This game is amusing, simple and can run on a potato. Highly recommend if you have time to kill and don't want to learn complicated game mechanics.
