Love this! Got stuck at Gare du Nord in Paris though. Despite being Europe’s busiest train station, no tickets going towards the South, only North. Seems suspicious! What’s the ticket logic? Is it founded on reality? Or just totally faked?
Hello I'm Chris the creator! For the past year I've been working on Geo Racers, a free to play web game where you have to race from one side of the world to another just using public transport. It's inspired by the BBC show "Race across the world". It's early stages but any feedback on the game it's greatly recieved.
Really like the game so far. Here's what I noticed and what I'd like to see after my first play though: 1. There should be an 'easy mode' where your money goes into the red, but you're still allowed to spend whatever to get to the end. It would be nice to see I'm $-14,952 in the hole, but I made it (with the ultimate objective to get to the destination while in the black). 2. The bottom overlays overlap. I was taking…
A possible bug though: I managed to finish Inverness to Gibraltar, and the top three spots on the leaderboard somehow had negative time durations!

Worried it gives the wrong impression that using trains is hard, when it's super easy in real life. I am actually sitting in a train right now.
Or if you want to double down on making it harder, you could use a satellite image view.

This rules! What a fun idea. I couldn't get the "Walk Here"/"Taxi Here" tooltip pop-up to stay open on Firefox when clicking on a train station, but it's working in Chrome.

Hi, yes the Gare du Nord (ie North Train Station) mainly has trains going to the north. For the south, you'd have to go to the Gare de Lyon, Lyon being a city in southern France :)
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Its all the same to me. An airport is probably the last place i want to be at and driving in a foreign country is something i find more stressfull than utilising the public transport there.
It's the 5000 transfers that I am talking about.
London to Paris, Paris to Berlin (I think this connection exists), to Moscow, Trans-Siberia to Vladivostok, and you're a ferry ride away from Japan, and there must be a Shinkansen straight to Tokyo...
Please respect the silence setting on mobile, thanks!
