Power Wagon Run
A game made for Kenney Jam 2025
Theme : Power

Power Wagon Run is a fast-paced action-defense game where your train fights its way through waves of monsters while traveling from station to station. Between battles, customize your train by adding or replacing wagons to adapt to the growing threat.

⚡ Power Management is Key

Each wagon needs electricity to activate. Your train has a limited power bar, and you must click on wagons to turn them on.



You gain additional energy every time you reach a new station, allowing you to activate more wagons and unlock new strategies as the journey progresses.

🛠️ Build Your Perfect Train Loadout

Your train's engine shoots enemies on click, but it won’t be enough on its own. You’ll need to build the ultimate battle train by strategically managing power and wagons. Choose wisely, for every watt counts !

The game is genuinely fun — I had a great time playing. The strategic layer of choices feels meaningful and is really well handled. You can end up with a wild build, which is super satisfying. It makes you want to push the bonuses to the limit (like, just how far can I crank up my firing speed?)
Balancing also feels solid — well, except in those rare moments when you get a streak of useless options in a row. One thing that's missing is the energy cost display when buying wagons, maybe in a 2.0 ?

Very fun game, the gameplay is top. The only thing missing is graphic details during the runs
