Your toy trains playset

All aboard? Time to get on Toca Train! Your kid gets to play train driver in this fun and friendly train simulator. The controls are intuitive and there are no written instructions. Just pull the levers, push the buttons and start exploring the island with your train!

A few years ago Toca Boca’s CEO, Björn, came to me with a short brief: How about a train app, JP? At the time our company was young enough that we hadn’t actually thought much about trains yet. But of course trains are a classic subject for play, so a few days later I was with sketching on the play design for a train app.

Now the first thing you have got to find out when you make an app for kids on a new subject is what it is that attracts children to it. You have to understand this on a deep level.

So the question I was grappling with was “Why do kids love trains?”

Toca Train gives kids control over a powerful machine that doesn’t stop unless they want it to. In a world that is constantly changing, calling for our attentions and demanding things of us, it sure is nice to be able to get into a mind state where nothing else matters, where things are predictable and where I am the master of my own domain.

Perhaps that is why Toca Train has has become so popular with many children, some off, some on, the autism spectrum.
