Coming soon from developer SoulAge23 and publisher Crytivo, Steel Artery: Train City Builder is a fantasy simulator set in a steampunk fantasy world. Players take on the role of the mayor of Steelpolis, a colossal train that showcases technological wonders and authority. Players are tasked with creating a thriving city on rails, where every compartment influences the community’s infrastructure and every decision shapes the lives of hundreds of residents.
In this city-builder, you’re the world’s architect. Steelpolis citizens think for themselves, making choices shaped by their needs and ambitions. They’ll decide where to work, when to rest, how to spend their gold, and even when it’s time for a career change. Some may turn down a job that’s too far, while others walk away the moment they’ve earned enough. You create the structure and opportunities, and they bring the city to life. However, if resources become scarce, the citizens will find ways to survive by any means. Check out the announcement trailer below for a quick preview.
Build your train-city wagon by wagon with clever, Tetris-like construction, and watch it come alive with hundreds of autonomous citizens making their own choices on how to work, rest, and survive. From humans and orcs to others beyond, each group brings unique needs and tensions to the community. Survival depends on a careful balance of economy and logistics, as every structure both consumes and produces resources within limited space. Venturing down the tracks into new lands unlocks fresh opportunities for growth, all while immersing oneself in the richly detailed, pixel-steampunk world. No two journeys are the same—replay again and again, shaping your train into anything from a compact village to a colossal megacity carrying thousands.
Steel Artery: Train City Builder can be wishlisted on Steam, and the Discord community is now available. If you are an avid fan of city builders or want to control your own version of a Snowpiecer, this is a fun premise that will put your management skills to the test.
