It has truly original game mechanics, sharp artwork, an exciting multiplayer dynamic, an addictive quality, and enough flexibility to keep you coming back for more.

90One of the most compulsively playable strategy games of the year, both online and off...Simplicity is the main ingredient that makes RAA so enjoyable.

86An extremely enjoyable time.
-
84An excellent macro-insight into running a railroad empire. Simple to learn, completely absorbing, ultimately challenging.
-
80A wonderful thinking game.
-
76Rails Across America's many weaknesses certainly don't totally dampen the fun of racing to see who can outbuild the competition.
-
75The game seems to be addictive and at least passably fun while in the middle of it, but I can't really say that I ever got excited playing it, or ever really looked forward to playing it when I was off doing other things.

If you ignore the sub-par audiovisual effects, you will find a decent and engrossing intellectual challenge underneath it all, which particularly exciting in human-to-human competition.
-
It definitely has a strong boardgame feel, although it's not as hands-on as the popular "crayola rail" games, nor as addictive as the recently released "Monopoly Tycoon."
