Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends

The game mixes map-based exploration with a collection of small modes. Players guide Thomas across Sodor’s rail network, moving between locations and selecting different activities. Modes include races against Percy or Bertie, video-scramble puzzle sections, clue-finding tasks, and trivia prompts from Sir Topham Hatt. A special mode offers extra assistance, and some features let players design custom routes for Thomas and his friends.

Thomas

The main engine and the player’s primary character in exploration and race modes.

Percy

A recurring engine from the series who can appear as a race opponent.

Bertie

The bus character who can also compete against Thomas in races.

Sir Topham Hatt

The railway controller who appears to ask trivia questions and provide guidance.

Learn the rail connections first so you can reach objectives efficiently. In races, steady control is more important than reckless speed, especially around turns and junctions. For puzzle and clue sections, pay close attention to visual details in each scene. New players should start with the assisted mode before moving to the tougher activities.

Tips and tricks

• Memorize the station layout early to cut down on unnecessary backtracking.
• In races, smooth driving usually matters more than constant acceleration.
• Look carefully at repeating landmarks and characters in the puzzle sections.
