A third person adventure game with simulation elements. In Locomoto we become a train driver and travel the world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals. We must take care of the cargo and the passengers, however the game also allows to explore the land on foot and to complete quests.
Locomoto is a combination of an adventure and a simulation game, in which we enter a fantasy world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals and take on the role of a train driver. The game was developed by the independent team Green Tile Digital from Sweden (interestingly, they have a psychedelic survival horror titled Strobophagia in their portfolio).
In Locomoto we watch events from a third-person perspective (TPP).
The main theme of the gameplay is traveling around the game world using a train. We need to plan our journey, as well as take care of the locomotive and the wagons attached to it, making sure that they will be able to overcome routes designated by us.
This is not the end, as we also need to take care of the passengers. Our goal is to make them eager to get on the train and to make their journey with us as memorable as possible. To achieve all this, we need to invite guests to the wagons, help them with lifting luggage, as well as engage in conversations with them during the ride and fulfill their whims (for example, by serving them hot cocoa).
The game does not force us to view the world exclusively through the windows of wagons or from train platforms. During stops, we can explore the visited locations on foot and get to know their inhabitants, as well as help them solve the problems that bother them. In return, the characters we meet reward us by giving clothes, as well as useful resources and schematics.
We use the latter to modify the train and to adapt it to individual preferences. We can attach additional carriages to the locomotive and arrange them according to our own discretion, placing various furniture in them and deciding on the style in which their interiors will be maintained.
The graphic design of Locomoto is maintained in a colorful cartoon style.

Game Ratings for Locomoto Video Game.
Rectify Gaming: 7 / 10 by Victor Tan
Locomoto brings your dreams of train ownership to life in a cozy environment. You visit destinations around the land while completing tasks. Expanding the train by finding collectibles and personalizing it is enjoyable. There are a lot of simple fetch quests and some visual mistakes are noticeable. For a cozy train experience that lets you manage your own train, Locomoto is fantastic.
Saving Content: 3 / 5 by Ed Acosta
Locomoto is a game that puts the cozy out front. For a good stretch of its runtime, that approach really works, the atmosphere is warm, the characters are endearing, and the whole experience wraps you in a gentle, cozy embrace. But by the end, I found myself running low on coal. That said, if you’re looking for a slow and steady adventure, Locomoto delivers. It’s a laid-back ride with a soothing tone and some genuinely sweet moments. For better or worse, this train sticks to a familiar track.
Video Chums: 4 / 5 by A.J. Maciejewski
I love when games provide freedom while also ensuring that each step of progress is satisfying and Locomoto does just that in all its cuteness. ??
