‘Pocket Trains’ Guide – Play Without Spending Real Money

Making the Most Of Your Bux

As the game’s premium currency, Bux allow players to open crates (which bestow train parts for crafting new trains and upgrades), speed up a train’s route, expand a city’s stockyard earn extra coins via the Bank. Thus, it’s a pretty hot commodity that plays an integral part in expanding your rail empire. The following tips help you maximize the earning of Bux while keeping you from squandering them once they’ve been earned.

Make An Effort To Prioritize Bux Cargo

Considering our previous statements about the importance of Bux while playing Pocket Trains, it should be obvious that players should prioritize picking up and delivering items that award Bux for their delivery. This goes beyond simply picking up the ones on your route; if the Bux cargo is on a different line, pick it up anyways if only to unload it on the stockyard of a line that can get it to its destination (or heck, even any other station just to save it). Even if you prefer not to transport cargo between lines (which is something I recommend against later), you should at least make the effort for the Bux.

Don’t Shrug Off the Daily Events

While Pocket Trains doesn’t award the same sort of ‘oomph’ in rewards compared to the social-oriented Pocket Planes flight crew events, they are still a great opportunity to earn some Bux. For this reason alone, I’d recommend paying attention to the daily events and participating in them, even if they cause you to deviate from your preferred playstyle. The fact that you can also earn special crates, which unlock rarer train parts is just icing on the cake.

Undertake assorted train tasks to gather essential materials for your global expedition, ensuring your railway business thrives as you elevate your train collection and deliver exceptional service to passengers, all in an endeavor to become the ultimate train conductor!

    You thought using the lost and found was a good idea at first, but then you found out you have to pay for it every day. It would be better if you could make a one-time purchase for long-term benefits. I would have given this game 4 stars if it wasn't so greedy.

    The game used to be really good, I even gave it 4 stars. But ever since the update, it's been freezing randomly for long periods of time. It's super annoying. I don't want to lose all my progress, but I might have to start over to see if that fixes the issue. If the freezing doesn't stop, I'll have to uninstall it. It's really disappointing how bad the freezing has become. Farewell to what was once a great game.

    You like the game, but wish there were more passengers in each car. It feels too empty with just 1-2 passengers, so maybe having 5-6 in each would be better. You also suggest adding animations for passengers to interact with players through small tasks as a mini-game. These are ideas to make the game more vibrant. Additionally, you propose customizing the train drivers.

    It would be good if the bank could let you buy bux or coins using different exchange rates. Also, it might be nice to have more cities like Hobart, Juneau, Whitehorse or Dawson City, and Novaya Zemlya on the map to make it larger.

    The recent update caused a lot of freezing in the game, which didn't happen before. Sometimes when going to ads, they don't load or there's a black screen for a long time. It even froze my phone and I had to restart it. I appreciate the change from Kiev to Kyiv. Please resolve the freezing and black screen issue.

    I discovered a bug that's preventing me from selecting jobs or moving my trains to other stations. The bug is keeping them stuck at the station where I left them to refuel. It's unfortunate, as I've been playing this game for a while and now have to restart because there's no cloud save feature. I was looking forward to finally finishing and completing the game, but this bug has halted my progress. I won't play again until the issue is resolved with an update. Hopefully, Pocket Planes will return to Android someday. All my lines are currently stuck.

    This game is the best ever! I love that there are no forced ads and it has an offline mode. It's everything I've been looking for in a game. I wish other games would take notes from this one.

    Hey, so you really like trains and 8-bit games, and you're a big fan of this game. You love the art style, mechanics, realistic work, and the rewards it offers. But sometimes it takes too long to load or crashes, and the ads get stuck. It's frustrating when you don't get anything for your time. You enjoy the gameplay and suggest adding double tracks so two trains can run on the same line. Overall, you still love the game.

    This game is all about timers and making you pay for premium currency to skip them. You have to pay to fast forward, buy crates, and then pay again to unlock them. Earning special currency is hard and I'm fed up with this model of gaming. I won't spend money on it. Deleting it now!
