Train Conductor has some brilliantly simple gameplay, which is also what makes it so much fun. Trains enter the screen from both sides with numbers attached to them. You must safely guide them to their matching track with a swipe without causing a massive collision. You’re able to stop a train in its tracks with a tap, but don’t wait too long because more trains are on their way. The game includes a variety of locations to visit, and Game Center integration.

You like to compete for high scores. Its gameplay is super easy to get the hang of, but achieving a high score will take timing and patience.

You’re looking for a train simulation game. This is not it.
