OpenTTD is an open-source transport simulation game based on Transport Tycoon Deluxe, written in C++. It extends the original game with larger maps, stable multiplayer for up to 255 players, dedicated servers, and extensive modding support via NewGRF add-ons.

Use cases

  • play a transport empire simulation game
  • run a multiplayer transport tycoon server with friends
  • play an open-source remake of Transport Tycoon Deluxe
  • mod a simulation game with custom graphics and vehicles
  • build rail, road, ship, and air networks in a sandbox game

When to choose

  • you want a deep, actively maintained transport simulation with multiplayer and mod support
  • you want a free, cross-platform game with dedicated server support
  • you want to extend gameplay with community-made NewGRF add-ons

When to avoid

  • you need a modern 3D game engine or realistic graphics
  • you want a casual mobile-style game rather than a complex management sim
  • you need a game engine or library to build your own game rather than a finished game
