The Trolley 1.0

The Trolley is a sort of point and click adventure game set in a fictional American town called Rustbelt where the trolley public transport system has recently been shut down and as you make your way to work there are multiple choice inner monologues where you can choose to either reflect fondly on the past, or look forward to the exciting events of the future, or meet somewhere in the middle.

Once you reach the old trolley yard you will have to complete a series of tasks although it’s not particularly clear what you need to do to progress at certain points which can make the game quite frustrating and slow paced, well it is all slow paced but when you know what’s going on that’s part of the games charm but when you spend ages wandering around wondering what you need to do next It can become quite an annoying experience and although this isn’t the finished article of the game it would have been great to get a little more direction as to what needs to be done when you reach the trolley yard.

The low poly graphics do look good though and there is certainly promise here for a very unique gaming experience, it may have limited appeal but to those that do get in to this kind of thing should really enjoy it.
