Railwake is an idle game with a world in it. You spend a minute at the station fitting out an armoured train and picking a line, then press Depart — from there the run rides itself. The train moves, the guns fire on their own, and your job is deciding what to buy and when, not steering.
Gold is for this run. Scraps are forever.
New here? Getting Started is the shortest path to your first Depart. Or just play it — it runs in the browser and needs no account.

Railwake is a free alpha and it is still moving. If a page here disagrees with the game, the game is right — and that is worth telling us about.
