Winter Season: The Snowflake Map – A Fair and Festive Winter Journey

Winter has arrived in Rail Nation, and with it comes a balanced and beautiful event map yet β€” the iconic Snowflake Map. Designed for cozy, low-stress holiday play, it combines a unique winter atmosphere with perfectly fair progression.

A Snowflake of Seven Regions

The map is structured around seven regions, each home to five cities, forming a symmetrical snowflake layout. Every region β€” Squirrel, Badger, Penguin, Hare, Robin, Reindeer, and Fox β€” offers identical opportunities for growth. Whether you start in the north or south, every city has the same distances, the same number of goods, and the same potential for success.

Fair and Chilled Progression

Forget about β€œbest” or β€œworst” cities β€” every location on the Snowflake Map is equally balanced. The identical goods distribution and equal route distances ensure fair competition, while shorter and smoother connections make it easier to enjoy the game even during the busy holiday season.

This event is designed for players who want to relax and still experience strategic fun over the Christmas and New Year period.

Fresh Winter Content

Alongside the map, you’ll find around 10 new goods (plus a couple of redesigned favorites) and new winter-themed visuals β€” including updated animals, regions, and art assets that capture the feel of a crisp winter landscape without too much glare or snow. Expect to see charming items like Gingerbread Men, Thermos Flasks, and Highland Cattle among your deliveries.

Balanced Design, Beautiful Look

The entire map is built on a foundation of symmetry and fairness. Every player can compete on even ground, and only minor variations appear near the center of the snowflake. Inter-region routes connect the map in interesting ways, letting you explore and trade freely β€” no region locks, no hidden advantages.

The Holiday Feel

Rail Nation’s Snowflake Map is a cozy winter adventure β€” easy to join, satisfying to play, and perfectly balanced for everyone. It’s your chance to enjoy a fresh scenario, share the holiday spirit with fellow players, and celebrate the season in true Rail Nation style.
