In all fairness, it really is a great game, and i've had countless hours of fun on console when it initially came out, but the PC version of the game(At least for me) is an unplayable mess. Game crashed 3 times before i was able to start the game, and when i eventually did, the controls were just so unresponsive not to mention the constant game lag and de-syncing of the audio from gameplay. I don't think this is an issue for most people, but be aware the that the performance of the PC port may not be what you expect. It really saddens me to write this review, as this game is one of the best platformers ever made. Recommend you get it on console instead.

Okay, so i´ve played quite a bit of this game now and i´m going to tell you(The consumer) what I think.
Conductor deluxe is a full time strategy game that heavily relies on timing and strategic planning. It was published and made by Northplay, consisting of a development team of 4-5 people.

Originally this game was released for iphones and android phones. Recently however, the game was ported to pc and released on steam. The reason i wanted to check it out, was because one of my good friends recommended it to me(as he had played it on his phone). And well here we are.

In this game, you(the player) posses the power to take control of trains and rails(and for some unknown reason, you have the title of "conductor", despite you clearly being a god)

First of all, this game is incredibly fun and addictive and yet extremely challenging at times. The game also provides a ton of content, at this point in time of me writting this review, i have over 4 hours played, and i´ve only made it through the 3 first overworlds (24 overworlds total). Not to mention that i have barely touched the custom level creation. Yes you heard that right, this game has custom level creation.
However, you have to earn certain structures such as "longer rails"(don´t worry you still have unlimited basic structures fo you to use) you unlock these structures by opening chests which you occasionally are rewarded from playing the main game. I do feel like this is quite unnecessary, also let it be known, at this point in time of me writting this review, there is no way of buying these chests. Maybe in the future the devs will change this system in which you earn chests or just remove chests altogether (the second option is prefered naturally).
The custom level creation also offers deep customization and details for you to add, to your custom levels(finally my detail fetishes can be satisfied, it´s like cities skylines all over again).

There are also quite a few alternate trains/skins, which you are also rewarded with occaisionally. you can change what train type you want to use at almost any given time. It´s a bit underwhelming, maybe you could add to it with some paint jobs or "custom grafitti" maybe, but hey it´s still something.

All in all, i would strongly recommend this game, great challenge, plenty of fun and with a ton of content for you to utilize. And all of this for only 10 bucks!

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, 'If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.'. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- 'Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 16, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because this game gave me cancer anyway.

Call of Duty: World at War, is a must play for anyone who enjoys a solid, action packed First-Person Shooter.

The campaign is the main attraction and offers both variety in gameplay as well as story. Its not very long, but its a ton of fun and very enjoyable to replay the campaign. If you have friends, play coop, the more people the better.

Multiplayer is pretty much dead, but you can still occaisionally find some lobbies full of people, although these servers may have cheats and such enabled.

Zombies is also a ton of fun and a great distraction every once in while despite being very barebones in comparison to later entries in the Black Ops series.
