Mini Metro for Mac

Plan and manage a subway network — Mini Metro overview

Mini Metro is a minimalist puzzle game in which you sketch transit lines for an expanding urban area. You begin with just a handful of stops and draw connections between them so passengers can reach their destinations. As new stations appear and passenger demand rises, you'll need to constantly rework your lines and rolling stock to keep everything moving smoothly.

Game modes and special play options

• Extreme mode — a tough challenge for experienced planners who want limited resources and harsher conditions.
• Endless mode — a relaxed, sandbox-style option that lets you play without the usual constraints.
• Normal mode — shorter sessions with the standard set of rules and pacing.
• Creative mode — an open design space where you can build your ideal transit network without restrictions.

Cities, obstacles, and replay value

The game includes more than two dozen real-world cities, each with its own palette and environmental quirks that affect how you plan. City growth follows randomized patterns, so layouts and problems differ each time you play, rewarding flexible strategies and quick adaptation.

Accessibility, presentation, and community content

• A large collection of player-made maps is available through the Steam Workshop for additional variety.
• Accessibility choices such as colorblind and night display modes make the game easier to use for more players.
• A clean, uncluttered interface keeps the focus on planning and routing.
• A reactive, minimal soundtrack complements gameplay and helps set the pace.
