Holiday Update
Tis the season for eggnog, a warm wooly blanket, and cozying up in front of a relaxing game, so we thought we could celebrate with a brand new update to the demo!

- Everything's covered in Snow!
- Specific Xmas/Winter-themed items and buildings like Rudolf the Reindeer, candy canes and ginger bread decorations, Ice Rinks and even a Ski Lift!
- UI overhaul
- 12 new train engines and wagons
- 24 new and exclusive Christmas assets
Islands & Trains
Build Islands. And Trains. No goals, no timer, no stress. Just build, relax, enjoy. Islands & Trains is a cozy, relaxing sandbox builder where you can create your own colorful little worlds however you like! Lay your railroad on top of your beloved island and place animals in the countryside. Whether you want to build tiny dioramas home to just one shed or idyllic villages with dense forests and complex train lines, you can get lost in finding the perfect place for all these little pieces. No goals, no timer, no missions, no stress. Just happy accidents.
The demo is a limited preview, please note that it only includes a small portion of the content that will be found in the full version of Islands & Trains. We hope you enjoy this early taste of Islands & Trains, and look forward to your feedback!
