Building Virtual Worlds - Final Round - Railly Tricky

Technology: Jam-O-Drum

​

Load and guide trains to their destinations. Railly Tricky is a cooperative game for a team of 6 people, where 2 workers load the trains in depot using joystick, and 4 people control individual junctions, and collaborate to guide colored trains to their respective junctions.​

​

Controls:

A. Depot: Use joystick to move the workers and button to pick up the crates
