OpenTTD.
By OpenTTD Team
OpenTTD is a free transport simulation based on Transport Tycoon Deluxe, maintained as its own open-source game and extended with newer features. The project supports Linux, macOS, and Windows, with stable and nightly downloads from the official site. The same readme also lists free copies on Steam, GOG, and the Microsoft Store. A community wiki holds the gameplay manual.
The F7 Insight
OpenTTD keeps a deep transport sandbox officially free on Steam as well as on its own site. The orange dollar-sign icon in this edition is a file inside that same GPL distribution, not a separately reserved logo.
