Evaluation

The Trolley Solution launched on September 12, 2025 and has received consistent post-launch support. The developer shipped two DLCs — The V.I.P. Lever (September 12, 2025) and Mai Torori Sama Romansu: Nemesis of Steel (April 24, 2026) — both of which are now available. Feature updates added Steam Trading Cards, multiple save slots, printable philosopher cards, and additional VIP stages through late 2025. Most recently, on July 20, 2026, the developer shipped controller support via Steam Input and made two active announcements: the game is coming to consoles "soon," and button glyph improvements are already being worked on for a future update. These are explicit developer communications indicating that active work is ongoing and further updates are on the way. This is the most recent developer communication on record, dated July 20, 2026.
