Rail in the Air is a skill-based simulation game where players control a train vehicle going on tracks high in the sky. The game provides a tight pace, with sharp curves, ever-changing landscape and the need to keep the right speed to prevent flying off the tracks.
Step Aboard A Train Car Amidst The Clouds In Rail In The Air
Unlike traditional train simulation games that often focus on route management, passenger transport, or system coordination, Rail in the Air takes a bolder approach. The entire experience revolves around surviving on the elevated tracks.
Players control a small train car running on tracks suspended high in the sky. The tracks are not fixed in a straight line but are constantly changing:
- Sharp corners appear unexpectedly
- Inclines increase and decrease continuously
- Windsaws cause the train car to lose balance
- Rapid turns require precise braking
Basic Controls
- W / Up arrow: Move forward
- S / Down arrow: Decelerate or brake
- C: Change train mode
- M: Open map
- Esc: Exit
- R: Revive after falling
The most important thing is not to go fast but to maintain a steady pace.
You must learn how to:
- Lift throttle entering corners
- Brake hard to avoid drifting off the track
- Re-accelerate promptly out of a corner
- Keep going on difficult hills
