The humble transport management sim is a venerable, fundamental part of PC gaming that's been inspiring an obsession with logistics since the early '90s. It can be complex, sometimes fiddly, but frequently rewarding work, linking up people, towns and businesses through roads and railways. But it can also come across as a wee bit dry—at least if you're not one of the enlightened who realises that it is, in fact, extremely cool.

Transport Fever 3 begins with a mission to kidnap some alligators.

Hunting alligators serves as a simple, brief camera control tutorial in the first of Transport Fever 3's eight campaign missions. You simply click on the reptiles until you've found them all, and then you release them back into the wild (off screen). It's not a particularly noteworthy escapade, except that it's a very silly way to begin a transport sim campaign—I kinda love it.
