Steam & Steel
Lay track across a region of clockwork towns, send your engines down the line, and grow one small station into a whole railway.
No clocks racing you, no failure screens — just the satisfying hum of a network that keeps running while you plan the next branch.
Lay it, load it, let it run
Three unhurried steps you repeat as your map fills with towns, tunnels and bridges.
Lay the track
Link neighbouring towns across the region. Crossing a river or a mountain calls for a bridge or a tunnel, so the ambitious routes cost more to build.
Dispatch a working
Assign an engine to a route, hitch the wagons you want, and pick the load — passengers, coal, iron ore, timber or post. Then send it down the line.
Collect on arrival
Watch it puff between stations and claim your gold when it pulls in. Busy routes keep earning even while the app is closed, tallied on your return.
Five engine classes to command
Buy them, then upgrade them for more speed and pulling power as your ambitions outgrow your first little tank engine.
Consignments, dividends & the Emporium
Consignments
One-off orders drop onto the board — haul a set number of loads of a certain cargo before the deadline and pocket a handsome bonus on top of the usual run.
The Emporium
Spend your gold on lasting improvements: faster loading, quicker engines, roomier stations, cheaper repairs and a bigger daily reward. Every branch compounds.
The Founder's Dividend
Return each day and your gift grows a little larger, climbing a seven-day ladder to its peak. Miss a day and it resets to the start — so it pays to keep the yard warm.
Little comforts, all down the line
Living region map
A hand-built map where your engines really move, puffing smoke from town to town.
Offline earnings
Active routes keep working while you're away, capped and totalled in a warm welcome-back.
Milestones
Gentle goals for laying track, running loads and growing your network mark every stage.
The Signal Box
Your settings hut — music, sound and haptics toggles, an about page and a fresh-start option.
Bridges & tunnels
Cross rivers and cut through mountains to reach the towns that pay the most.
Entirely offline
Everything runs on your device with no account to make. Build on the train home.
A fair line. Steam & Steel is single-player and fully offline. Every engine, every branch and every upgrade is earned by playing — with no advertising, no accounts, and nothing to purchase. Just you, the map, and the gentle work of building a railway.
