What do the numbers at the edge of the board mean?
Each number tells you how many cells in that row or column contain track. The finished line runs from entrance to exit as a single railway with no loops or branches.

TRACE IT gameplay guide and player questions
Steam edition · Researched Nov 8, 2026 · Guide updated Nov 8, 2026.
What can I do when I cannot choose the next track piece?
Compare the marked track cells with the row and column totals. Once a line has its full track count, rule out the remaining cells and use that information on crossing lines.
Based on source 1.
Where should I start learning the railway puzzles?
Start on the smaller five-by-five boards, then move up as you get comfortable combining curves and straight pieces. Each puzzle has a unique solution.
Based on source 1.
How do I earn better medals for my train?
Campaign levels award Bronze, Silver or Gold based on how quickly you clear them. The faster you complete the puzzle, the more carriages your train pulls when it rolls along your track and off the board.
Based on source 1.
What are the different ways to place track pieces?
You can pick pieces from a radial dial directly on the cell, or select a piece from the side panel and click cell after cell. Choose whichever method feels most natural for your play style.
Based on source 1.
How can I mark cells that definitely do not contain track?
You can mark cells that cannot hold track with an X, or switch them to trees and rocks. This helps you rule out invalid cells step by step until the correct route reveals itself.
Based on source 1.
What is the purpose of the question mark tool?
Use the question mark tool to mark cells that must hold track but whose specific shape is not settled yet. This helps you keep track of your logic while solving the puzzle.
Based on source 1.
What happens if I get stuck on a difficult level?
If you are truly stuck, you can turn on hints in the settings menu. You are allowed three hints per level to help you progress through the more challenging puzzles in the game.
Based on source 1.
How does the difficulty scale in the campaign?
The game starts on a small five-by-five board and grows all the way to a wide fourteen-by-eight board. The difficulty rises smoothly, requiring more thought as you progress through the five hundred available levels.
Based on source 1.
What is the difference between the game modes?
You can choose between Easy, Normal, Hard, and Hell difficulties. You can also decide whether to keep the difficulty steady or have it increase level by level, and Relax mode offers no timer.
