Transport Fever 3 looks to build on the previous games with over a century of transportation history featured in the game, wrapped up in both a sandbox of transport management, and a single player narrative campaign. We went hands on a few months ago, playing a mission all about saving Mardi Gras after a weather disaster, and following that up with making sure that Woodstock gets to run as well as it possibly can.
In our preview earlier this year I said, “I feel that these narrative missions and tycoon gameplay will really help make Transport Fever 3 more accessible. I often find myself at a bit of a loose end when simply presented with a sandbox, so while that absolutely remains, having both a way to ease players into the simulation, and to give objectives in an intelligent way that keeps you more engaged will be great.”
