"Valley’s answer to one of its main mysteries doesn’t quite satiate the curiosity it taunts, though it wisely leaves others unsolved. The questions it does pose it can’t answer, because no one can. That’s the siren Valley will use to carry you by the song of its story – though it is somewhat betrayed by its lack of mechanical prowess. I'm not normally one to be bothered by technical issues – I'm more concerned with messages and ideas, hence I can forgive a few breakdowns on the way so long as we get somewhere. Whether it’s a trip worth taking will depend on your tolerance for bumpy rides and the many spell-breaking hiccups curtailing the credulity of your experience."

About
Derail Valley casts you as a train operator navigating an expansive rail network. Manage deliveries by coupling and uncoupling locomotives on the fly while exploring the environment on foot. The career mode lets you accept multiple tasks simultaneously and repair damaged trains after mishaps. Progression hinges on your ability to balance efficiency with the game’s realistic physics that affect every turn and collision. The game’s VR integration sets it apart letting you use motion controllers to operate train levers and switches. Though it works on regular PCs the virtual reality experience puts you inside the cab for a more direct feel. Compatible with Oculus and other major headsets it delivers a train sim that emphasizes player freedom and realistic physics. Launched in 2019 it maintains a dedicated following for its hands-on approach to rail operations.
