DESCRIPTION

Inspired by LEGOs, the perennially popular plastic building blocks, LEGO Loco for the PC is all about building and running a virtual train set. You can design your own railway layouts, culling from an unlimited number of train tracks you retrieve from a Toybox. The Toybox is filled with other items you can use to build environments and towns such as train depots, streets, stores, tunnels, train switches, office buildings, trees, grass, houses and, of course, train engines and carriages. At any time you can erase specific elements of your design or you can drop a bomb and start from scratch.

When the Toybox is open, you have access to everything you need to design your creation. After you close the Toybox, the massive train set world you have created will come to life. This is when you can interact with your world by running the trains, maneuvering the townspeople and playing with the fountains, dinosaurs and other animated objects.

In addition to playing trains and building elaborate train sets, LEGO Loco enables you to send and receive postcards to your friends via the Internet, providing the friend in question also has a copy of the game and Internet access. Also, you can build a massive multi-user train set. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide
