Railbound is a puzzle game in which our task is to repair and create railroad connections. It was developed by indie Polish studio Afterburn - authors of such positions as Golf Peaks and Inbento.

Game mechanics

In Railbound we observe the action from a top-down view. In the game we have over one hundred puzzles, in which our task is to allow the wagons to reach the railroad. To do this, we place, connect and cut railroad tracks, of which we have a limited number in each puzzle.

With time, new elements appear, which slightly complicate the gameplay. We're talking about tunnels connecting different edges of the map or semaphores allowing the cars to pass at specific time intervals. As you progress, there are also more and more cars, and you have to remember that they have to reach the queue in a certain order. In addition, they are moved simultaneously, so their routes must be planned in such a way as to avoid collisions. Nevertheless, the difficulties are introduced gradually so that they do not interrupt the sense of relaxation that comes with the game.

I loved every second of Railbound and I'm sure you will, too, especially if you appreciate cute dogs, tricky trains, and clever puzzles.

Railbound is a quaint, confident and colourful puzzle game that’ll charm your socks off if you let it. The presentation is welcoming, while the puzzles are challenging, all chocking up to a well-designed puzzler that’ll keep your brain boggling for hours.

Screen Rant: 4.5 / 5 by Jacob Zeranko

Railbound's puzzles can still be deceptively difficult, too. Some of the larger puzzles with multiple moving parts can be surprisingly simple, while the more bare-bones puzzles can provide some of the game's biggest challenges. While some puzzles may take some time to figure out, they never feel obtuse or unfair. Finding solutions to those puzzles generally means taking a small break to reset the brain and coming back with a fresh pair of eyes. With over 150 puzzles and ability to play on the go, Railbound is truly a fantastic game with a charming aesthetic and well-designed puzzles that reward and empower the player.
