If you're like me you occasional fantasize about owning your own multi-million dollar transportation company.
OpenTTD is a game that I have started to play several different time but have always been turned off by the outdated graphics and controls. Once I got passed that I found OpenTTD is a really fun and extremely addicting game. It is one of the best simulators I have ever played and is probably the best tycoon style games I've played. It is like the old Railroad Tycoon but on steroids. You're goal is to transport anything you can by road, rail, sea or air and make as much cash as possible in the process.
Gameplay
Most of the game is spent building roads and railroads and buying various vehicles, giving them routes, oh and spending and making loads and loads of money.
Time progresses in this game so depending on what year you start you will have limited technology (buildings and vehicles) until those are developed. Towns will grow in population and complexity and industries will collapse and new ones will replace them.
It takes a lot of time to build a huge transportation network especially if you are playing with competitors. They will get in your way steal market share and all around be a pain in the butt. If you have some time to waste OpenTTD is not a bad way to do it.
