Make your first session count.

A focused walkthrough of the basics, followed by a small checklist you can use while learning.

Inspect the starting train

Identify the main weapon and the available upgrade controls. Observe a short stretch of automatic firing before changing anything.

Read the cost and effect of a power or speed upgrade. Change one category, then watch the next section of the run.

When another gun or carriage becomes available, check how it fits the train. Keep merging and equipping distinct in your mind.

Read the rules of a challenge, defence run or mine before entering. Different modes can ask for different priorities.

Use the game’s own instructions first.

Controls and features can change. If your version differs from this guide, follow its tutorial and send us a correction for the page.
