Gameplay edit

Unlike Mini Metro, which focus on the design of metro lines, Stationflow is a video game that simulates the flow of metro passengers, which requires players to build a metro station. Players have to provide the facilities, signage, and connections between entry points and train tracks in a station map up to nine floors.[1]

Development and release edit

Stationflow was developed and published by Japanese video game developer DMM Games. It was available worldwide on 15 April 2020 on Microsoft Windows.[2]

Reception edit

Stationflow received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[3]

Jamie Latour of The Gamer rated the game 4 stars out of five. He praised the game is "addictive", but not pleased with the finicky UI.[4]

Daniel Weissenberger said the concept of the game along with its simplicity led to success, but also mentioned that "the [construction] system doesn’t allow for overlapping shapes, demanding the player be exact and precise with each new area to be excavated."[5]
