    Found this game on the Apple App Store

    The screenshots have some extremely TSW style content that’s easy to see

    Theirs even an ECML looking pic.

    I’ll tag DTG Alex for review.

    I dunno man… TSW4 has a RED Talent 1 while that first one clearly features a BLUE Talent 1… definitely can’t be a copycat.

    Mobile games have a bad habit of doing this bait and switch. They'll use photos of other games, then the product is completely different.

    Hell, even some steam games do this too.

    I have seen a red version of a 377 from london to brighton in a similar one before now (ts1 though, and it matched but was inverted, so not completely impossible to photoshop or even a creation club reskin?)

    Most of the train games on the tablet are Indian or Chinese clones of each other and complete rubbish too. The “developers” probably beyond the reach of normal copyright laws. The honourable exception being HMMSIM which also allows you to drive imported BVE routes and trains. Oh and the Japanese Train Drive 3 is also quite good.

    I must congratulate DTG as they seem to be the standard for train sims. It's an honour to be copied. :cool:
