It's a pretty challenging game to get the hang of, but the concept is interesting. Although I find it strange that the trains stop in front of the barrier—usually, that's meant for cars.

Too hard!! The concept is good, only lack of challenge curve. I got three 0 scores before I realized what should I do.

As others have said, just too challenging too early for me. Not only was it hard to grasp which lanes to open first, I also felt extremely rushed due to the timer.

Graphics were good though, the audio added to the atmosphere and I liked the concept.

Really quite difficult. It took me a couple of retries on the game before I could even get one point! I started to get the hang of it, but still could barely get more than a couple of points before having to restart again.

I think if I had more time to react early on and then slowly make things faster it would be easier for players to acclimate to the game.

Yeah, the concept is all right, but it's hard to get to grips and without any learning curve or simple tutorial you just don't want to. Tried several times and gave up. It works only if you have 1 rule to implement (like all the trains should stop and one to move straight)

After about 15 tries, I could still not figure out what to do :(

The graphics look nice though!

Nice graphics and I enjoyed the swaying of the stops. But like many have said it was very difficult. Not only having the time to process whats happening but also remember were all the trains want to go. And then make it happen before the next set of trains. Anyhow, good graphics, sound and feel!
