Game: Lucky Train

Lucky Train is that rarest of things, a completely novel social game. This train simulator doesn't bear an immediate resemblance to any other game this reviewer is familiar with, console or otherwise. It's not even very much like Railroad Tycoon, which is certainly the direction you'd expect a train-themed social game to go in.Instead Lucky Train takes the gamble of building itself almost entirely around its social mechanic, which involves creating train routes and then adding your friends to them as "stops" along the line. You load trains up with passengers from your buildings, then send them on trips to make money.
