National Transit

From the Devs

National Transit puts you in charge of a nation's entire transport infrastructure — from the first dirt road connecting two villages, to a rail network spanning your country, to international airports that transform your greatest cities.

Your goal is simple: build connections, grow your economy, raise your people's prosperity. The rest is up to you. It all starts with a freshly generated world — one nobody has ever seen before, and nobody ever will again.

Roll a New World
Set the dials — how mountainous, how wet, how scattered the coast — then let the world surprise you. You choose the broad strokes; the map decides the rest. Where the rivers run, where the natural harbors hide, which valley is begging for its first railway — none of it is revealed until the moment the world unfolds in front of you. Every new map is a fresh hand of cards: sometimes a mountain-locked inland nation, sometimes a long open coastline strewn with islands. Scout it like an explorer, find the place where your story begins — or roll again and see what the next world deals you.

Connect Your Cities
Place roads, railways (standard and high-speed), waterways, and air routes between cities of all sizes — from remote hamlets to bustling capitals. Terrain pushes back: rivers carve natural corridors, wide waters demand bridges or tunnels, and mountains make you choose between the long way around and the expensive way through. Every connection you build generates trade, moves people, and grows your economy.

Watch Your Economy Evolve
Transport infrastructure drives everything — trade, migration, and the growth of every city on the map. Enact city policies — special economic zones, free ports, university towns, stock exchanges — to steer each city's rise. Read it all in full financial statements, from monthly income to your nation's balance sheet.

Step Into Your Cities
Every city on the national map can be entered and shaped up close. Draw the streets yourself, lay out metro, light rail, tram, and bus lines, and watch districts fill in with buildings and the businesses that move in.
As your cities mature, logistics firms, financial institutions, and industrial conglomerates take root — and if you build well enough, world-class corporations and international organizations establish themselves in your largest metropolises and your capital. Then put your city to the test: pick any two doorsteps and navigate between them — on foot, by car, or riding the very transit lines you built, transfers and all. Watching a journey thread through your own metro map is the moment your city stops being a drawing and starts being a place.

Your Nation, Your Identity
Name your country. Choose its capital, its flag, its domain suffix. Draw and redraw your internal provinces as your nation grows. Every nation you build is uniquely yours — from its geography to its economy to the companies that bear your chosen name.
