![]() Lastly, the lack of rewards can make the game’s lifespan a little shorter. This has only happened to me a couple of times, but it does make the round feel a bit unfair. The game is meant to eventually overwhelm you naturally, but once in a great while, the game seems to forget you need stoplights or something else. ![]() ![]() Sometimes, I’ll be playing through a map and never get enough highways or other things that I feel like I need. The only issues with this game are its lack of rewards and the bad luck that rarely happens. As of now, there are no rewards for winning those challenges (that’s honestly fine because of the general leader board), but some kind of badge next to your name would look cool on the leaderboards showing how often you win. But the game does exactly what each arcade game should do have a weekly and daily challenge. These are pretty fun and offer a pretty large amount of challenge and hours of content. Each city has score goals, leader boards, and challenges. The game comes with a series of cities to build your roads on. There is a lot of nuance to these road systems, and it is amazing how well the game slowly builds from quaint and calm to chaotic and complex. These can help the flow of traffic a lot if used well. As time goes on also, players will be given resources to use throughout the city like bypasses, bridges, stoplights, and more. As the game goes on, more stores will be added, different color houses will need to be connected to different colored stores and then things become a desperate game of optimization. Players will connect those with roads that get filled with cars by going back and forth between the houses and stores. Each game starts out with just one store and a few houses of the same color. The real fun of the game comes from the chaos that grows after you have to make streets, highways, stoplights, circles, and more to connect an infinitely growing city. With some minor instances of bad luck here and there, this game is easily one of the most engaging and satisfying games I’ve played in 2021.Īs I mentioned above, the premise of the game is easy to grasp: connect places so cars can go to and come back from their destinations. The complexity and challenge come from placing roads and organizing a city with the materials given to you and having the flow of traffic as smooth and fast as possible. Mini Motorways is a straightforward game of placing roads between houses and stores. Never in my life did I think organizing traffic and setting up highways would be fun, let alone one of the best games I’ve played this year. If you love Mini Motorways and want to take it on the road or you want a fantastic indie game that tests your organization skills while being both exciting and relaxing, you can’t go wrong picking this up for the Switch. The zoom function feels a bit limiting being stuck to two settings, but that is really my only complaint. ![]() While using joy-cons or the touch screen never feels as precise or smooth as the mouse and keyboard on the PC, the game plays very well. Everything is here from the original game with the newest updates in lighting, new maps, and some other minor optimizations. This game is so perfect for short car rides, long stretches of travel, hanging out in a library, or anywhere. It was released on the Nintendo Switch this month and I couldn’t be happier to have this game on the go. Mini Motorways was one of my favorite games last year, below is the original review.
