Rail of War is a action-strategy game where you command an heavily armed, customizable armored train through enemy territory, supplying troops and destroying land/air targets (tanks, bunkers, planes) to win battles and advance through missions in a fictional "Iron War," featuring unique rail-based shooting, upgrading weapons/wagons, and a level editor.

The dawn of the iron war has begun, and the enemy of the player's country is losing. The player has one chance of making it: Drive Trains throughout the lands to win the war. As the enemies grow stronger, the player still advances through with new tech in the form of more advanced trains and finally defeats the enemy at night in a jungle ending the iron war.
