Transport Tycoon

At the beginning of the game, a large terrain is generated.

It is shown in isometric projection and includes hills, rivers, lakes, bridges, industrial facilities and a lot of small towns.

It is up to the player to decide how to start building a transport empire.

All transport connections involve linking towns and/or factories, constructing vehicle depots and purchasing vehicles.

For example, a common starting move includes connecting two towns with a road, building a vehicle depot somewhere next to the road, and setting up bus stops in both towns.

Then, a bus needs to be purchased, its schedule set, and ordered to start.

As it goes between both bus stops, taking passengers and unloading them, it earns its owner money.

Train networks are built similarly, but require individual locomotives and appropriate wagon types to be assigned to each train.

Most businesses offer certain types of cargo and are ready to pay for transporting other cargo to them; for example, a steel mill has a lot of steel to fill entire wagons, and will gladly accept iron ore any is available.

Landscaping tools are also available, best used for clearing terrain for new roads or tracks, or for creating canals for ships to pass through.

Some buildings like airports require large sections of flat land.

Clicking on any vehicle brings up a small window where a live feed of what the vehicle is doing can be observed and its status is shown.

If anything important happens during the game (such as a particular station accepting its first vehicle), it is shown as a newspaper headline at the bottom of the screen.

Transport Tycoon for Sega Saturn is currently worth €17.54 loose, €9.66 complete in box, and €21.50 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Transport Tycoon has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Transport Tycoon, loose is €17.54 and CIB is €9.66 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.
