Look, let’s be honest: the indie horror hit 'Choo-Choo Charles', which caused quite a stir upon its 2022 release, has finally chugged its way onto mobile.

The mobile version of Choo-Choo Charles arrived on June 8th via the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. However, it is currently only available on the Google Play Store for domestic users. It will set you back 8,500 원 on Google Play, while the App Store listing sits at $4.99 (roughly 7,580 원).

For those who missed the boat, the 2022 original was a horror game inspired by 'Thomas the Tank Engine', featuring a train-spider hybrid named 'Charles' that earned quite a reputation. Your goal? Aid the settlers, scavenge for weapons, and hunt down that train.

As of June 9th, the original game maintains a 'Very Positive' rating on Steam, with 92% of users singing its praises. It’s a game with a clear objective and a villain that keeps the tension high, thanks largely to Charles and his delightfully grotesque appearance.

The mobile port is a faithful transition of the PC experience. You'll still be helping locals, gathering scrap, and fulfilling missions, though the graphics have been tweaked to suit mobile hardware. You’ll find a movement joystick on the left, with action buttons for running, jumping, and leaning on the right. The UI even sports a clever chalk-like finish to match the game's eerie aesthetic.
