City Project

The City Project allows players to donate unused items for the benefit of their city. It is a permanent feature available on all game worlds. Once you reach 1,000 Prestige, the City Project unlocks automatically. A pop-up will confirm access and explain the basics.

How It Works

  1. Click on your city and open the “City Project” tab (next to Overview and Passengers).

  2. You’ll see:

    • The next reward and how many Project Points are still needed

    • A contribution ranking

    • A button to "Contribute to this Project"

  3. In the contribution window:

    • Click “Exchange Rates” to see how many points each item is worth.

    • Select the item and amount you wish to donate.

    • You can only contribute up to the number of points still needed for the current reward.

    • Click “Donate” to confirm.

⚠️ A confirmation popup only appears if you are donating gold.

Rewards and Progression

  • Each City Level allows for up to 5 rewards.

  • Once all 5 are unlocked, the city must level up before new rewards can be earned.

  • If the city levels up before unlocking all 5, the remaining rewards are lost.

  • Rewards must be unlocked in order and cannot repeat within the same city level.

  • Some rewards apply to all players connected to the city; others are vouchers given only to hometown players.

  • Active rewards appear at the top right of your screen with other bonuses.

Examples of Rewards

City-wide bonuses:

  • Revenue bonus (city and industry transports)

  • Waiting time reductions

  • Prestige bonuses

  • Better competition rewards

Vouchers (individual rewards):

  • Engine, wagon, track, or investment vouchers

  • Power bonus or mechanic vouchers

  • Instant upgrade or dispatch vouchers

  • Research points, money, lottery tickets

  • Licence, headquarters, and building upgrade vouchers

  • “Collect all trainspotters” voucher

  • Bonus engine upgrade

  • Gold

Project Point System

  • Each item you contribute grants a specific number of Project Points (viewable in “Exchange Rates”).

  • The cost per point depends on the era.

  • The number of points needed for each reward increases by 50% compared to the previous one.

    • Example:

      • Reward 1: 50 points

      • Reward 2: 75 points

      • Reward 3: 113 points, etc.

  • Point requirements also depend on the city’s level and population.

The Magnus Bonus Engine

As a bonus, one of the five reward tiers in each city level hides the Magnus bonus engine.

  • The engine is awarded randomly to a contributor.

  • The exact location is unknown until it is claimed.

Smart Contributions

  • Over-contributions (exceeding the required points) will roll over to the next reward.

  • If someone unlocks the reward before you click donate:

    • If your contribution isn’t needed, it will not be used.

    • If only part of your contribution is needed, only that amount will be taken.
