A-Train: City Simulator hitting the North American 3DS eShop on April 14, Europe on April 16

A-Train: City Simulator is launching on the North American 3DS eShop on April 14, Natsume has confirmed. The European (and Australian) release will follow on April 14.

For those who haven’t heard of A-Train: City Simulator previously, the game is “a cross between a social experience and a deeply involved city building simulator with a heavy emphasis on keeping your town connected and its transportation flowing smoothly.” A full overview can be found below.

You’re the boss! It’s up to you to keep cities, towns, and suburbs connected and their transportation smoothly flowing. However, doing so comes with challenges: players will need to balance their budgets, as well as the wants and needs of the people using the systems. Bottlenecks and frustrated citizens must be avoided if the transportation system is going to truly work for the people!

As the new head of transportation, players will see real results of their work. They can build new buildings to support additional growth for bus routes and subway services, export goods to make money, and even build an airport! As time passes in-game, players will have the option to upgrade their technology, moving from steam-powered trains to high-powered electric ones!

Enjoy the sights of the city and the transportation methods you choose with a panoramic sweep, or set new goals with a map editor that gives players all the tools needed to craft new scenarios. With hours and hours of variable storylines, fans will find a deep depth of gameplay that’s sure to keep them coming back for more!
