The prequel to Mini Motorways, Mini Metro is a fantastic minimalist puzzle game where you design and manage train networks in the style of underground subway maps. I looks fantastic, but will my professional engineer skills help me in Mini Metro?

About Mini Metro:
Mini Metro is a minimalistic subway layout puzzle game. Your small city starts with only three unconnected stations. Your task is to connect them with subway lines. Everything but the line layout is handled automatically; trains run along the lines as quickly as they can, and the commuters decide which trains to board and where to make transfers.
However the city is constantly growing, along with the transport needs of its population. How long can you keep the subway system running before it grinds to a halt?

Couple of pointers - loops are a thing (and you can have trains going in opposite directions on them), and you shouldn't be afraid of a) entirely reengineering the entire network and b) making sure you have plenty of interchanges between lines, especially when they're right next to each other.

1. You can pull from the middle of a line to add a station in. 2. If you make the corners 90deg or bigger the train will speed past if there's no passengers getting on/off. 3. You can make lines loops! 4. Don't be afraid to delete all lines and setup again. A centrally located hub is ideal. 5. Interchange can be used as a last minute game saver.

You can drag the middle of lines to change their shape and add a station to the line. You can also drag carrages and trains from one line to another for ultimate micro-management and cheesing. Mini-Metro is a very fun game to play and I found is good to speedrun. The speedrun leaderboard for it consits of a rather small community though.

Hopefully I can learn more from you so I can do better on those later levels. XD

The shape of the line matters. For example your red line had a sharp turn in it that slows down all the trains that pass through. The more you can have the line be straight or a slight curve the more the train can maintain speed through the station (especially if there are no passengers waiting). Also, if a line crosses another line it seems the trains will slow down a little at the point where the lines cross.

A few tips: Circular lines are more efficient because the stations at the end of the line receive tranes as freguently as the ones in the middle Try to avoid stacking the same shapes in a row, the best way of putting down paths is to make them with a reasonable ratio of different shapes getting the train Make your paths meet in a square as its the rarest among triangles and the circles, and then put you interchange in the place that the paths meet together
@Tfin
@Tfin 2 жыл бұрын
What you said is true, the bit about alternating shapes. As you saw, when there were a bunch of circles in a row the train filled up and no one was getting off. Gotta keep the circles separate as much as possible, which can get rather difficult. I was kinda hoping you'd played this before and actually could do well at it, as I've only once beaten 2000 on London, and was looking for tips other than micromanaging and moving every train at every stop.

The key in this game is to cut down travel distance. Because your trains have only 6 spaces without carriages you cannot afford to have a passenger block a seat for long stretches of track since it will make your throughput plummet. Circular lines with trains going in both directions are very good because of that.

Just so you know, if you click in the middle of an existing line, you can adjust it, it doesn't have to be at the end. This is helpful for lines that have sharp turns, as sharp turns slow down your trains and are inefficient. You can also delete entire lines, which is helpful for when you have a bunch of new stations and need to make everything more organized Good work though! EDIT: every line comes with a train *if* you have a train available, otherwise there's no trains for the line to use

If the angles in and out of the station are greater then 90 degrees then the train can express the station( if it doesn’t need to stop it won’t) otherwise if the angle is less then 90 degrees the train has to stop making the line less efficient overall. You can change the angle based on which side you drag the line into the station on

People have probably already pointed this out, but you can grab a line in between two stations to add new stations and unselect already present stations all along the line without having to grab the T and move the end station every time. Stations are added to the point where you first grabbed the line, so if you want to add a station in between two already existing stations, you need to grab the line in between those stations, or you might get some really wonky-looking lines. You can also move and remove trains from lines at any time. They will travel to their next station and drop off whatever passengers they are carrying, and then teleport to wherever you dropped it. Carriages work the same, and are also transferred to the train/line you dropped it onto once they reach the next station. This is useful, because you can micromanage and juggle overcrowded stations by at any time moving trains from less stressed lines to pick up passengers from ones with a timer. I'm not great at this game, but I've survived weeks longer than I normally would by doing this.

Ghost-lining is a good idea: drag a line from a crowding station to a relevant destination and delete the line as soon as the train departs, then you can draw another one and another as long as you have trains on your inventory. The deleted lines become transparent like ghosts and disappear as soon as the train arrives at the nearest station and unloads people. Then the train goes either back to the inventory or your next pending line. There can be quite a few ghost lines at the same time depending on your locomotive park. This way helps unload crowded stations on the go. I always keep the last line for this purpose. There's another hack with ghost-lining. Say, there's 5 round-guys and 1 plus-guy on a station. I drag a line from that station to the round-station nearest to the plus-station, so that the train picks up all 5+1 passengers. But keep in mind the direction of your locomotives if you drag a ghost-line to a circle line. Make sure that the plus-guy has the shortest distance left to travel to the plus-station after it gets off with its 5 round fellow passengers. If the departure station and the plus-station are on the same line, then just draw your ghost-line to the round-station and continue to the plus-station. Otherwise, the plus-guy will think it useless to get on your ghost-line and the locomotive will depart with one vacant seat. As has been said in the comments, loop lines are more effective than non-loops. They're more effective if you give them two trains moving in opposite directions.

Same, I bought them both after seeing one of his mini motorways video. I didn't even know until afterwards that mini motorways was a literally just released game either.

Tip: If you press the clock, you can get the game to progress faster. Another tip: press the line color at the bottom to delete the entire line and redraw from scratch. Pro tip: combine those 2 tips to get past the boring early game.

Shorter lines are the best lines. Sequences of the same stations are bad. It means passengers will get stuck in the middle stations as trains are filled. Interchanges are interchanges. Use them as (rare) focal points in your transport system. Unlike in Mini Motorways, you can a lot more rapidly restructureyiur entire system (a train only needs to reach its next station to be available for redistribution). Each week gives you another train, putting down a line without an available train means it won't have any (or you could generate trains from nothing). Personally I've had good experiences with making one or two lines specifically for the more unique stations and pushing those passengers through some core stations (that could serve well for interchanges). Have fun with the 5+ chains of circles on one half of the map. Its frustratingly common 😁

I played this game so much in high school and I never knew you could pause. I can't tell you how many times I panic and accidentally delete a line and have to rebuild it while 5 stations max out. hahaha

A couple of tips,try to have every shape on every line and try to have the start on one side of the river and the end on the other.

A proven strat for me is to: -connect every line with every basic shape (at least one square, one triangle, one circle) -try not to build a line with to many same shapes in a row. Try to build your line with triangles and circles alternately and with one square somewhere in that line. -and try to build a line that connects all the special stations, with every other line having access to this line somehow. There is also no penalty in the game for stopping the game and completely redrawing the map, you should definitely do this from time to time, so your network gets more efficient. Also: only cross Lines on stations, otherwise the trains will be slower every time they drive over a crossed line.

You can connect a line to make a circle so it doesn’t go end to end. Also you can drag the area of the line between 2 stations to extend it if the is a station near.

a Few tips Use Circular lines when needed interchange stations, don't put more than two stations of the same type in a Row even if you have to zigzag the line if Square passengers get on a train from a Circle station and there's 3 circle and 2 triangle stations ahead, That passenger won't get off quickly and the Train might be full for too long. If you have a Square station only triangle and circle and special passengers will pop in it. passengers will choose the shortest route to their destination sometimes you have to pause and delete everything and start over. New Lines mean efficiency More Carriage means capacity you have to find the perfect balance. only 4 Locomotives can be on the same line each game has preferred destination sometimes it's the Circle or Square .... etcetera. most new stations are circles i don't know why.

Golden tip: The trains slow down on a line crossing. You can actually pick up a line and move it (to avoid obstacles, to shorten the distance or to untie the lines).

6:57 - You get a new train every week whether you get a line or not. You got one at the same time as you got the light blue line, but you placed it onto the yellow line.

In Mini Metro loop lines are your best friend! Wherever possible your line should be an endless loops with at least 2 trains on it, going in different directions. This means the trains don't have to stop and turn around, and it the passengers will get on the train that has the shortest journey time. Interchanges should be used where multiple lines meet at a single station such as your middle square, it gives extra capacity for passengers changing trains which could otherwise immediately overload a normal station Try to avoid having 3 of the same shape consecutively on a line, they stations will never spawn passengers the same shape that they are, so having multiple stations of the same shape just builds up a massive backlog of passengers until your trains can't handle them fast enough. even if the route is slightly longer, its more efficient. Having multiple "meeting" points for the lines helps manage transferring passengers to the closest possible destination they want, try a central loop, with an outer loops, and spokes that loop between the two loops (like a flower)
