OUR TAKE A transport sim hiding inside a fantasy joke, and it actually works.

How to play

  1. You are the Authority: connect the villages, run the coaches and carry the travellers between them.

  2. Every traveller is an errand from a bigger story — orcs building the Dark Lord's tower want a coach home at the end of the day.

  3. Keep the service running and the adventures happen; let the routes fail and the quests run out of time.

Scoring tips

  1. Read the traveller notes before you draw a route; the request is the puzzle, not the map.

  2. A short reliable loop beats a clever long line — most complaints come from waiting, not from distance.

  3. It needs WebGL 2; on an older browser you get a apology instead of a map.

  4. There is no failure screen, so experiment with the network — you can always reopen it.
