Train Valley 2 News

Weekly Winner - June 6th


https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2816268004

A snowy valley in the middle of June, with terraforming, shortcuts appearing and disappearing, mammoths minding their business and diamond industry growing steadily-but not without our help :) 9:00, no demolition jobs available, pleasant surroundings to look at and build around.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2814804837

An island with every food industry out there and an unstoppable Chocolate factory with seemingly limitless supply. Autotrains, flying cars, colleagues from a neighbouring star system, different recipes and tons of quests to complete with just 10 minutes on the timer and a 160 track tiles limit. Colourful design with newest mechanics and decorations + familiar gameplay.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2816474068

A trademark Disassembling Factory with many vehicle producing industries and locomotives on a slower side @Thomas level. 10 minutes on the timer, no turning trains around and 3 wrong deliveries requirement. Deceptively simple, objectively fun :)

A DNP train driving puzzle with emphasis on no pause and train driving part :) Embargo and Toll stations to dial the difficulty to 11 and an out of our view shortcut to confuse us further, Spirited Away is an multifaceted adventure with several layers of difficulty and backstory, possibly including some Shinto-Buddhist folklore too. We get to visit the Temple of the Potato, set up Gold deliveries through the Sacred Mountains and into the Fertile Islands-in under 14:00 and without destroying a single track tile.

Sometimes things don't work out, and today we get to recoup some of our investments before starting anew somewhere else. We need to salvage everything of value and construct a colony ship while sustaining periodic meteor bombardment-every 4 minutes to be precise. Keep our engineers safe, do not build more than 2 bridges or tunnels. We have 18 minutes.

How can the first railway line on a certain flat disc-shaped world carried by a space-faring turtle be connected to waste management? We just don't know :) We do know however that whichever edition you pick, The Great A'Tuin proves to be a fine design-both from visual and gameplay standpoints, deploying Myths And Rails mechanics and decorations to deliver a wonderful 15:00 DNUP/17:00 and no train crashing experience.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2818176603

We're given 20 seconds as the new Urban Planner to assess the situation before an endless stream of Workers autotrains commences. Reconnect the Power, explore the premises and get to work-build at least 10 bridges, deliver at least 300 trains, spend less than 28 minutes and fund every construction project there is. An exciting race against time with quite a bit of train management.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2815109217

Everything is under control, HQ-the giant skeleton found in local cyan waters is almost certainly out of commission, extensive geyser system constantly testing limits of our biodomes reliably prevents any mining efforts, harsh conditions are present around the clock, purple tinged fish fingers supply plainly refuse to end and there is a 10 minutes delay for every supply ship. Both the Hyperloop and Buggy factory are still operational and so is your starting locomotive. 10 minutes, failure is not listed as an option.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2815575827

Clever terraforming and an array of Pass Limiter stations-choose a path, eventually come to a realization that it is not the most optimal one, restart :) An original take on many paths to same set of objectives design paradigm with new station type, an intricately constructed challenge with expertly decorated and coloured terrain. 8:00 and absolutely no track demolishing + a TV2$ 1000 budget for non-track demolition jobs.

Allow us to extend our collective congratulations on winning the Level Of The Week award to @Gelledee! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered by our contact ASAP.

Tell us about your TV2 workshop adventures and visit our Discord server for an upcoming LPT challenge. Until next week!

First prize! Congratulations @Dracken!

A world resting on four elephants standing on THE space-dwelling star turtle. Nobody knows where it goes or why-but right now we are tasked with upgrading local logistics network with rail tracks and steam locomotives. Pay attention to fire-breathing fauna representatives and make sure every industrial establishment is well supplied and properly connected. Complete an additional construction project and you may find enough seconds left out of a the 15:00 DNUP timer to cast a look or two beyond the edge, or marvel at the giant beasts that keep this train valley properly oriented in space :)

Congratulations everybody! Steam Wallet funds will be delivered to the winners by our contact ASAP.
