Jet trains launch into ‘Sweet Transit’
The little engine that couldn’t slow down shifts into high gear with a new ‘Swift Expedition’.
A major update to the city builder game Sweet Transit has been released by ex-Factorio 3D artist and developer Ernestas Norvaišas with Team17 Digital.
Swift Expedition sees Sweet Transit move into a new era of locomotive-led “tycoonery” with the addition of jet trains. Lightning-quick and perfect to transport large amounts of passengers and cargo, these mighty speed demons can be harnessed by players to kick their humble production chains into high gear.
The Swift Expedition update introduces a variety of quality-of-life improvements to the game, including a full overhaul of the user interface and double the amount of trains players have in operation previously. A ‘Natural Attractiveness’ bonus to player settlements can be attained by ensuring citizens are in close proximity to features of natural beauty, such as mountains, trees, large bodies of water, and hedges and statues which can be placed around residences.
