About Yamanote Rush
Yamanote Rush is back, and it's gone 3D. Take the controls of a bright green commuter train on Tokyo's loop line, the ring that circles the heart of the city. All 30 stations, at real distances, from the driver's seat. The job sounds simple: stop right on the mark, right on time. Easy, right? STOP ON THE MARK Every stop gets two ranks. STOP is how close the front of your train lands to the mark. TIME is how close you are to the timetable. Nail both for a double S. Overshoot the platform and the passengers will have words. A NEW RUN EVERY DAY Today's run is the same three stops for everyone, and you only get one go. Your score goes on today's Game Center leaderboard, so you can see how you stack up against drivers everywhere. DRIVE IT FOR REAL (ISH) • 11 cars with real braking physics. The brakes take a moment to bite, wheels slip in the rain, and every car behind you pushes and pulls. • A coffee on the dash. Yank the lever and it spills. • Speed limits, checkpoints, red signals, track workers and the odd surprise on the line. • Morning, dusk and night, in sunshine and rain, with Tokyo lighting up as you go. • Look around the cab: swipe the windscreen. • Original departure melodies on the platforms. • Nail a stop and a pigeon might land on your wiper to say well done. COLLECT THEM ALL Stop perfectly at a station to stamp it in your stamp book. There are 30 to collect, and new paint jobs for your train unlock along the way. FREE RUN Pick any station on the loop, choose the time of day and the weather, and drive. GOOD TO KNOW • Made for iPhone and iPad • Plays fully offline • No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking Made in a tiny lab by Nashtendo. Please don't rush onto the train. Unless it's Yamanote Rush.

What’s new
Version 3.2 · Updated October 18, 2026
The loop goes both ways, the day goes by, and rush hour gets real. • The inner loop: drive the line the other way round, past the same city from the other side. Today's run switches direction each day. • A shift through the day: a dawn warm-up, the late morning, the evening rush and on into the night. • Real rush hour: packed platforms queue at every door, pushers squeeze the last few in, and the odd late runner dives for the closing doors. • A new Crowd setting in free run: Quiet, Busy or Rush. • Packed trains on the other lines, umbrellas in the rain, and platforms that shine at night. • Platform announcements and the murmur of the crowd, muffled until the doors open. • Stations light up after dark, and the busy hubs fill with signs and billboards (every ad is made up). • Red lights are easier to spot from further back, and driving is smoother, with far fewer hitches. • Fixes: Japanese text in the right font, crowds dressed for the time of day, and no more grey band beside the track.
