Locomotion

About

You’ve got a cargo to haul and a thief to catch. Locomotion casts you as a train operator racing to recover stolen gold, navigating a series of puzzle-filled tracks that stretch from dusty rail yards to alien planets. Each level tasks you with arranging trains, flipping switches, and timing deliveries to keep your supply chain moving. The challenge grows as obstacles multiply, derailed cars, misaligned tracks, and wayward asteroids require quick thinking and precise planning. With 51 stages spanning increasingly absurd locations, the game balances methodical strategy with a dash of slapstick sci-fi. The game’s charm lies in its quirky premise and polished puzzle design. Steam users average it 4.5 out of 5, praising the tight level progression and retro-inspired visuals. The Switch port lets you tinker with tracks on the go, while the PC version offers crisp controls. Though the story is all camp, think mustachioed outlaws and rogue extraterrestrials, it frames the puzzles well. Casual players and puzzle enthusiasts will appreciate the gradual difficulty curve, though later levels demand patience. The gold may be stolen, but the fun is firmly in your hands.
