On the other hand, the music is fairly well done, and depending on how much you like jazz, it can be VERY well done. The sound effects also suffered from a few bugs, like overlapping and disappearance of certain effects when too many things are going on the screen at once. No birds chirping, no brakes, sometimes not even sounds for each of the individual industries. Other than the trains leaving the stations, or the buses starting up there's little else you'll probably hear. The sound effects in Transport Tycoon are almost absent.

In the sound category, Transport Tycoon does one thing very well (music) and the other (sound effects) it does really poorly. The game could've also used a somewhat better interface, although that didn't get as much in the way of the game as one might think. The hex-grid can't be turned off and it makes for quite an annoying distraction sometimes, despite it's usefulness. This is probably the only fault of the game, but it's quite a considerable one. Transport Tycoon suffered from few graphical hiccups and had a permanent hex-grid displayed. They were well drawn and big enough to be seen but small enough to fit with the scale of the game. The trains, vehicles, boats and airplanes looked very pretty, to say the least. The cities brimmed with details, each of the individual industries was well animated with a series of 'effects' (like smoke coming out of the chimneys, lumber being cut, etc.) which were quite an achievement for 1994. The game takes place on a 2D plane, with a surveying birds-eye view, and while the resolution wasn't much, the underlying graphics were very well done.

TT was more than just graphically apt when it came out in 1994, it looked damn good. In the game you play as an up-and-coming CEO of a minor transports company who wants to make a name for him/herself and, thusly, takes a loan and goes out in the business world to either bite the dust, or better yet, make him/herself a multibillionaire. In the simplest of terms, Transport Tycoon is basically the same game as Deluxe, except that it starts in 1930 and ends in 2030. By grasu | Review Date: MaMost people don't even know about Transport Tycoon's existence, since it's younger brother, Deluxe, was released shortly afterwards and had an insane following back in the day.
