It is clear from the very beginning that something has gone wrong in the past in this world, as the visual clues indicate a society currently struggling with rationing and labour in exchange for basic needs like accommodation and food. Presented as a 2D, side-scrolling pixelated world, you are a train driver and sometime engineer in a grey, dystopian, industrial location where resources are scarce.


It’s a simple game, with a high concept wrapped up in mystery and revealed slowly as you progress, but with gameplay mechanics that ultimately stutter a little towards the latter stages. The Final Station is an interesting game, one that has an overwhelming sense of inevitability and futility about it.
