Conduct This!
Conduct This!
Conduct This! puts you in charge of a busy rail network where trains never stop unless you tell them to. Each level drops several trains onto a web of crisscrossing tracks, and it's your job to get every one of them to its matching station without a single crash. The idea is simple, but the timing gets tricky fast: tap a train to start it rolling, tap again to stop it, and use the junctions to reroute trains before their paths collide. As you clear stages, new regions open up along with different trains, each with its own speed and quirks, so the puzzles keep changing shape even though the core rule stays the same. It's the kind of game you can pick up in seconds, but the later levels ask for real planning, since a track switched a moment too early or too late sends two trains straight into each other. If you like puzzle games built around timing and spatial reasoning rather than reflexes alone, this one rewards patience and a good eye for the whole board.
How to play Conduct This!
Getting started
- Each level shows one or more trains already on the tracks, plus stations marked to match specific trains or colors.
- Click or tap a train to start it moving; click it again to bring it to a stop.
- Trains automatically follow the track they're on until they hit a junction or you stop them.
Switching tracks
- Tap a junction to flip which direction it sends an oncoming train.
- Use switches to route each train around others and toward its own station.
- Stop a train just before a junction if you need a moment to clear the path ahead.
Finishing a level
- Get every train to its correct station without letting any two trains occupy the same section of track at once.
- A collision ends the attempt, so you'll need to restart and rethink your sequence.
- Clearing a level unlocks the next region, sometimes with a new train type to learn.
Tips and strategy
Watch the whole board before you move anything, not just the train closest to a junction. Because trains keep moving once started, it's often better to hold a train at a stop while you send a different one through a junction first, then release the second train right after. Get in the habit of scanning ahead to the next two or three junctions a train will hit, since a switch set incorrectly two moves away is what usually causes the crash, not the one right in front of you. When a level introduces a new train speed, run through the level slowly in your head first: figure out which train needs to clear a junction before another one arrives, and only then start tapping. Restarting costs nothing but a few seconds, so use failed attempts to learn the timing rather than guessing your way through.

Frequently asked questions
How do I control the trains in Conduct This?
You don't steer them directly. Tap a train to start it and tap it again to stop it, then tap the junctions along its route to change which track it takes next.
What happens if two trains crash?
The level ends and you have to restart it from the beginning, so it's worth pausing trains at junctions rather than letting them run into each other.
Do I need to get every train to a station?
Yes. A level isn't finished until each train on the board has reached the station that matches it, so leaving one stranded means the level stays incomplete.
Does the game get harder as you go?
It does. Later levels add more trains, longer routes, and junction layouts that require you to plan several switches ahead instead of reacting one at a time.
Can I play Conduct This on a phone or tablet?
Yes, the controls are touch-friendly since starting, stopping, and switching trains only require simple taps.
