The concept is very simple--run goods from where they're supplied to where they're in demand, make a profit, try to get subsidies\/monopolies and drive your opponents into bankruptcy.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe aim is to build up an empire of trains, ships, lorries, planes and helicopters, with technological evolution to be taken into account. You can play alone, or with a number of computer-controlled rivals. At the beginning of the game, you (and your rivals) have a large terrain at your disposal. The terrain includes hills, rivers, lakes, bridges, industrial facilities and a lot of small towns. It is up to you to decide how to start building your empire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaybe you can begin by connecting two towns with a road, building a vehicle depot somewhere next to the road, and setting up bus stops in both towns. Now just buy a bus (initially, there are just a few models available, but more buses appear with time), set its schedule, and watch as it goes between both bus stops, taking passengers and unloading them, earning you money. You can also transport passengers by building train tracks, sea ports, or airports and then buying appropriate vehicles - trains, ferries, planes. If you set up a station next to an industrial facility (such as a factory, a power plant or a farm), you can also transport various cargo, such as coal, livestock or wood, which allows you to earn much more money than transporting passengers. Most businesses offer certain types of cargo and are ready to pay for transporting other cargo to them; for example, a steel mill has a lot of steel to fill your cars, and will gladly accept iron ore if you have any.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned and Written by Chris Sawyer from Microprose\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloper: Microprose \u003cbr\u003e\nReleased: 1996\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThis game may require DOSbox to run on newer computers - but I will provide assistance on getting this set up if required :)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e***\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original case is not included, hence the discounted price!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e(N4360)2\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PC \/ Computer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47369711419622,"sku":"(N4360)2","price":9.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/9181\/8982\/files\/Transport_20tycoon_20Pc_20Disk.jpg?v=1774453699","url":"https:\/\/levelupgaming.nz\/products\/transport-tycoon-96-pc-game","provider":"Level Up Gaming NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
