Empathy simulator.

<span class="bold">Mini Metro</span>, a brain-wracking metro simulator, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

Sometimes, the most complicated things come in the simplest packages. Mini Metro, a strategy public-transit simulation, is a staple of simple brain-wracking glory.
In its simplicity, Mini Metro is beautiful and to the point - a simple map dotted with shapes and distinctly colored lines is something we've all seen before while traversing major cities, and it all evokes a very familiar sense of nervousness and confusion. Then, more stops, more people, begin to show up.

It's right about then that you should be hit with a sudden wave of empathy for both: the frustrated passengers waiting and changing lines, as well as the people tasked with the weight of figuring out and pleasing the flowing masses.

Despite being a relatively simplified simulation of real life mechanics, Mini Metro gives you a taste of the urgency and sophistication of transit planning. If you can figure it out and survive, you may just find yourself with a newfound understanding for that one really stupid transfer you have to make on your way to work.

Check out the developer's website for a playable taste of the full game.

dinopoloclub: We do have a partial crowdsourced Greek translation in the game. It's missing a few strings that were recently added (you can see the full list of translated strings at https://www.transifex.com/dinosaur-polo-club/mini-metro/, and fix them up if you'd like!). A few of the existing Greek translations are a little long, so in the city selection screen they overlap with some of the UI elements.

We have professional translations only for English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Polish, and Russian—all others are crowdsourced.

Treasure: You're from the team behind Mini Metro, right? :-) I took a look at the link you attached and I have a small question:
How come you posted in the game's info that Turkish is available, while 16 strings are still untranslated? Because, with the same mindset, you could have said that Greek is ready too, despite 27 strings being untranslated.

On another note, I joined the greek translation "team" and I'm trying to contribute to a few untranslated terms and also shorter versions of existing ones that will still do the work (since you said you have problems with the length of some sentences).
Anyways, hope your game sells well and I also wish that enough people will help you with the greek version so you can add it to the game as well!
Yes, I'm one of the devs. :) Thanks for signing up to translate! Hmm, we didn't update the list of translations since we first sent the list to GOG, so it may have been that at that time Turkish was 100% but Greek was incomplete. We'll update that list when we push a new build to GOG.

Will this also include the Android version like on another site? I would prefer to buy it here, but would really like to have it on Android too.

Thanks!

I know Indonesian. It looks like there aren't a great deal of strings in the game, so I could probably translate it pretty quickly, but I don't see it as a language option for the game. I've never used transifex before though, so I just might not know what to do.
