Total NewPlays: 480Game: Train Station Renovation
Platform: Steam
Released: Oct 1, 2020
Installed: Feb 2, 2024
Unplayed: 47d (1m18d)
Playtime: 69mTrain Station Renovation is a first-person work simulator.
I find work simulators quite hit-and-miss on two axes.
The first is whether I'm interested in the underlying work. A couple of years ago I stumbled across House Flipper, when I was deep in a depressive episode.
It was an incredibly chill way to find focus, and presented me with a to-do list, and a sense of satisfaction moving in creating order out of chaos.
The second is the UI for achieving those goals. It needs to be intuitive, and essentially disappear, allowing me to get on with my to-do list.
Train Station Renovation aims at the first one, in bringing order out of chaos, but somehow fails miserably on the second one.
I found myself constantly tripping over myself with the UI, which took me out of the zone repeatedly.
The sense of satisfaction in finishing the station and handing it over was good, but the frustration involved in getting to that point with Train Station Renovation left me feeling pretty:
2: Meh
