🏝️ Bolotny Island, Bobrovy Island, Mnevniki Island

Metro stations do not appear inside the parks.

Mini Metro requires a horizontal map, while Moscow is elongated north-south, so the entire city didn’t fit. The map is divided into 8 regions:

• Central Administrative District (TsAO) inside the Garden Ring
  
• Garden Ring to the Third Ring Road (TTK)
  
• Third Ring Road (TTK) to the Residential districts, Spalniki
  
• Three residential districts: Northern AO (SAO), Western AO (ZAO), Eastern AO (VAO)
  
• Two special areas of Moscow-City (MIBC) and VDNKh

When developing the map, I thought of these conventions:
● Residential districts, Spalnye Rayony. Few in the Centre, unlimited everywhere else
▲ Office districts, mostly in the Centre
■ Train stations. Tend to spawn in the Center, like their real-world examples: Belorussky, Kazansky, Paveletsky, Savyolovsky, Kievsky, Kursky, Rizhsky. Special case for Vostochny that may appear close to the map edge
⬟ Military, Lubyanka, spawns only in the Center
◆ Tourist areas: Chistye Prudy, Tretyakovskaya. Mostly spawn in the Center
🎪 Entertainment venues: VDNKh, Teatralnaya. One is likely to appear right at VDNKh
💎 Affluent districts: Moscow-City, Tsvetnoy Bulvar. One is likely to appear in Moscow City late in game
➕ Hospitals. In Moscow, free healthcare is incredibly developed, so hospitals appear in any district but tend to be located near the Third Ring Road (TTK): “Sklif” (Sklifosovsky Institute), “Botkinskaya”, “Pervaya Gradskaya”, and “Filatovskaya”
🏉 Football arenas: Luzhniki, Dinamo, CSKA, Spartak, Lokomotiv. 4 of them should spawn in the northern areas, as only Luzhniki is close to the Center
⭐️ The Kremlin. The Kremlin is always in its rightful place

Mini Metro has its own balance rules that are a bit complicated, so the concept above is not always respected by the game. The random nature makes it fun to play!

Moscow residents are very demanding, so special stations appear more often than squares and triangles. This adds a special flavour to the map. Be sure to satisfy their needs.

Achievements and upgrade choices reflect current city naming conventions. After some time, the latest generation Moskva-2024 trains are unlocked. Metrovagonmash 🤍💙❤️

Moscow’s tradition of naming stations can confuse visitors: some transfer stations share a single name (e.g., Paveletskaya, Oktyabrskaya), while others have different names (e.g., Krasnopresnenskaya-Barrikadnaya, Serpukhovskaya-Dobryninskaya). The Moscow Metro crosses the river via tunnels and bridges, like at Kolomenskaya or Vorobyovy Gory. Therefore, a separate third upgrade always offers either a river crossing or an interchange.

Moscow is actively building new lines – here there are 14 of them, not including the Moscow Central Circle (MCC) or Moscow Central Diameters (MCD). ⚰️ Monorail.

Please write your suggestions regarding balance. I will be happy to upgrade the map.
