OpenTTD is great with a bunch of mods or a bunch of rules. My friends and I used to do yearly games and we outright banned air travel because it's just too overpowered and makes you have endless money.

Trains though, thems the ticket. Really satisfying.

Awesome, thanks for confirming my suspicion that air travel is too overpowered. I feel better about giving OpenTTD another try some time. It’s hard to find time where we’re both free and in the mood to learn a new game. Plus I much prefer just figuring something out myself over reading comprehensive guides (I don’t mind looking up specific things).

I’m also excited to look into mods!

We've had some crazy things happen when you make a large map with ~10 people coming in and out.

One of our friends focused on bus service in these few towns, set up a bunch of lines, and then logged off for a few days - his area grew to become basically four or five contiguous cities, it was pretty rad.

Our endgame goal was to build maglevs hitting every single player's main city, and it took a while, but it was really fun when we finished it.
