A downloadable abomination for Windows

Alright, listen up! You’re drivin’ this big ol’ train, yeah? We’re out here buildin’ and firin’ the biggest dang guns we can. The more we shoot, the more we loot, the longer the train gets, and the bigger the guns we slap on it. Oh, and if we find any junk lyin’ around? Hell yeah, we’re strappin’ that on too! Let’s make this thing unstoppable!" - Marceau Lussier

Land Trains is an action-packed Tower Defense, Snake-Like,  Survivor-Like, Rogue-Lite abomination that takes you on a thrilling ride through a mid-apocalyptic post-steampunk world. Navigate the world and the passengers who all have their agendas. 

Drive your massive Land Train as you fend off swarms of giant bugs in a relentless battle for survival. You choose the train's path:  Will you find a new home, Uncover the mystery of the apocalypse, or fall victim to the swarms ravaging the world?

Snake Gameplay reimagined

Navigate the landscape and your long trail of cars in this reimagined snake gameplay. Your length is your weakness and strength, allowing you to block paths and shut the swarming bugs out or maybe just shut you in.

Discover the unique powers 

Choose your rewards from the 64+unique train wagons, activated offensive and defensive powers, or passive upgrades that affect the whole train.  

Take your towers with you

Build defenses on your train cars, upgrade them, and take them with you throughout the run.  You will collect unique wagons with their defenses or passive buffs for nearby wagons. Some areas allow you to re-arrange your train to optimize your combinations.

Drive the story

A group of refugees is trying to ride out the apocalypse, only to have the swarms find them and force them into action. Choose what path you will take through the waste while learning about your passengers.
