MINI METRO

Fancy a spot of urban planning in your lunch break? Mini Metro (currently in a free, pre-release alpha build, but coming as a paid game later this year) is just the ticket: it's a game where you have to cater for the whims of New York's commuters by constructing a subway system connecting various stations.

As the days roll by, more stations appear, stretching your network and causing the overcrowding that can lead to Game Over conditions – but once a week you're given a choice of "power ups" that enable you to add more lines, or upgrade existing ones with more carriages, speedier trains, longer platforms and tunnels.
