This game was my childhood, along with the wacky mobile port they made and released as "Transport Tycoon". Like the games prior, it really was coded in assembly, which makes it run fast but it's incredibly unstable on even relatively new machines. An open-source remake exists, called OpenLoco, which like OpenTTD runs much better but it's still a WIP so you need to buy this game for it to work.

Still super fun 20 years later. Save often though, it's a bit unstable. there's a bunch of GP30 mods for it so I kinda have to rate it highly anyway.

It was supposed to be an improvement over Transport Tycoon Deluxe but it came out way too late for what it brought to be a success, and as of today there is Open TTD out there so the only reason to play this is for nostalgic purposes or personal research to see how it was.

If you are looking for a simple Transport Tycoon clone. This one is even better. A timeless classic to be sure.
