Инди хоррор с уникальным концептом, где тебя преследует злой паровоз паук. Крутая атмосфера, а звук здесь вообще на высоте и отлично нагнетает обстановку. Когда уходишь от своего паровоза выполнить квест и вдруг слышишь вдали гудок Чарльза, а рядом даже укрыться негде, вот тогда становится реально страшно. Именно в такие моменты начинаешь ценить свой паровоз. В этой игре он твой единственный друг и защитник. Пока бегаешь по полям и лесам, боишься каждого звука и молишься, чтобы Чарльз не напал. А стоит вернуться к паровозу, сразу становится спокойнее. По ходу игры собираешь лом и другие ресурсы, улучшаешь свой паровоз и постепенно превращаешь его в настоящую машину для охоты на Чарльза.
TLDR Version: Short, sweet and to the point. A fantastic little horror game. 9/10 The game is a great time start to finish. Charles is terrifying. The island is fun to explore and the sense of danger that comes with leaving the train knowing he could shamble over the horizon at any moment never left me. A personal favourite detail is how, organic Charles felt. It never felt like he popped up just for a cheap scare. Often I would hear or see him roaming around in the distance and he'd just wander off and leave me alone. But other times he would notice and give chase. I never got the feeling there was some invisible timer counting down till his next attack. The only complaint I could give is the stealth sections felt a bit clunky at times. Simply tapping the sprint key would mean they'd spot me from miles away, but then they could walk within inches of me with no cover and not notice at times. Not a massive issue, just a tad frustrating at times. Overall: This game is simply fantastic. I loved every minute of it. It was short but it didn't outstay it's welcome and get tedious. And the scare factor never wore off like other games I've played. It stayed tense from beginning to end. Highly recommend it!

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great game! I really enjoyed playing the main mode. Nightmare is really difficult (shocking right?). Worth the price (when on sale)
thomas the tank engine if he hung out with the wrong crowd
2.5 hours of absolute nothingness. You drive round an empty map and complete basic fetch quests to upgrade the train, then summon the boss fight. I can count how many times I encountered Charles on 1 hand. Not sure if it was bugged but I barely saw him... Performance is shockingly bad, and the game has a weird mix of photo-realistic and cartoon graphics which don't blend well together. If they committed to 1 art style it might have looked decent. For the same price you could buy Bendy, SOMA, or Amnesia, all of which are better experiences. Avoid this YouTuber slop.
Wait for a sale or bundle. full price is ehh but i played it for 2.5 hrs so i guess time well spent, kinda. when i first launched the game i wondered why my gpu was blowing up and my computer was screaming for dear life. [b] set FPS settings off of default unlimited ASAP. [/b] nice premise, eh execution. pros. story \ setting is a neat premise, just barely touched upon by the characters or snippets of info you find thru out the game. Neutral? hunted down by charles once in a blue moon. think he appeared 5-9 times throughout my entire playthru? Cons 1. you fetch quest everywhere and everything. 2. mostly barren open world 3. can easily run past anything, no point in trying to 'stealth' in this game at all. can play the entire game as a speedrunner with unlimited sprint stamina beat the game in 2.5hrs. with some time dedicated to trying to save my computer from the default [b] UNLIMITED FPS, and ALL MAX GRAPHICS SETTINGS[/b]
Very fun and enjoyable horror game, I really like the train simulator aspect the most. I just really wish there was an endless mode + more train skins / upgrades, maybe another game-mode/dlc where you can make your train longer, trading speed for defense while rescuing survivors on the island instead of fighting Charles, like an alternative ending just for fun.
Já se imaginou controlando um trem com armas com o objetivo de matar um trem/aranha do mal? Não? Impossível!! Mas sim, essa é literalmente a premissa desse game, você tem uma breve introdução e recebe o seu trem, você precisa juntar sucata para melhorar o seu trem, pq no começo ele é bem ruinzinho, em paralelo eventualmente o charles (trem/aranha) vai te perseguir um pouco, porém ele tem uma característica, ele sempre foge após tomar mt dano, e ai tem o seu objetivo para atrair ele de fato em uma luta até o fim, e isso vai acontecer ao longo da historia e se isso vai funcionar? descubra. O jogo tem algumas missões secundarias para te dar umas sucatar e você melhorar seu trem mais rapidamente, rushando o game, ele acaba sendo bem curto, até pq realmente não tem muito oq fazer além dos objetivos em si, e tudo é marcado no mapa, a jogabilidade é simples e você entende tudo bem rápido. As conquistas a maioria são faceis e relacionadas a historia, porém tem uma conquista de colecionaveis e uma do modo nightmare, e ai é bem ridiculo pq tem permadeath... e não é nada facil sobreviver até no modo normal, quem dirá no hard com permadeath, recomendo usar o esquema de saves e fé, ou boa sorte se você curte sofrencia! No mais é um jogo bem legal e divertido para você realizar seu sonho de perseguir e sobreviver a um trem aranha!!! E na promoção tem um precinho bem camarada
Choo-Choo Charles (Classic Mode) – Fun idea, limited execution This game has a cool concept, and the core gameplay: upgrading your train while being hunted can be fun for a few hours. The music helps build tension, and it’s a unique experience overall. But beyond that, it feels pretty shallow. The story and world don’t offer much, and there isn’t enough variety to keep things interesting for long. It’s not a terrible game, just a very limited one. I had some fun with it, but I wouldn’t really recommend it unless you’re specifically curious about the concept or there's a great deal going on. Not worth 20 bucks maybe 5
