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.

Great game about optimisation of shapes movement with a very abstract graphics. Rare achievements are fun. Now I am tempted to play some train tycoon game ._.
Love the simplicty, strategy and iunterface design. A good Randomised puzzler.
Oh man, does an optimization puzzle game centered around trains sound fun to you? It did to me, and I’m happy to say that this game scratches a special little autistic itch in my brain that not many other games have. This game is yet another example of a simple idea executed flawlessly. The puzzles are very fun and the special challenge achievements are fun to pursue. I’d say if you’re someone who likes Factorio or puzzle games, giving this game a shot is a no-brainer.
