Finely balanced puzzle simulation where randomized houses and factories are connected by motorways. Clean just like Mini Metro and equally accessible. Everything may be going fine in your city planning until it hits the fan, and it’s great fun solving for under/over-population while keeping a tight design of roadways, intersections, and highways. Repeatable, with daily and weekly challenges. Could use a lot more cities, if anything.

Played this game on IOS via Apple Arcade. Overall it’s a fun time waster that feels half strategy and half puzzle based. The pleasant loop of building roads, to get more traffic, to get more roads is certainly addicting. Simple art style and music are not super memorable. Game comes with a number of maps that are similar in scope, but have some challengers associated with it. Definitely will come back in to play from time to time

The most stressful chill game.
I love it <3

easier to play than mini metro and the map looks real pretty once you get going


An interesting and complex, though easy to learn and to play, arcade-strategy game. My sole complaint is how spawning works and how you can pave roads to interfere with it.

got me through college finals 👍

Mini Motorways is sweet. It's a better version of Mini Metro. Played it a decent amount and never found a way to cheese the game, which I'm sure it's out there but it was cool to put time into it and still feel like I could try different strategies.

this game is experienced best as a mobile title, a deeper-than-it-looks-but-not-too-deep puzzle game with 5-10 minute sessions. if you play through the whole thing in one sitting, you'll probably find it repetitive. so don't! love and world peace and take breaks

A very good balance of planning and procedurally-generated chaos. The toolkit for managing an increasingly complex web of roads is limited, but the game expands it at a decent clip. That matches slightly more complicated environmental challenges. The best part, by far, is the ambient tones that emerge as you progress. I would have liked a little more in the way of AI difficulty, however - the game shows its hand early, and a similar strategy can carry a player through every city tile set.

Playing this game puts me into a very Zen-like state, helped by the wonderful ambient music and sound design that integrates fantastically with the minimalist UI.

Finding an elegant solution to transport the citizens to their correct destinations is incredibly satisfying and there's plenty of challenge to be found here. It kept me entertained for hours and I may return to it to finish all the locations at some point.

This shit is HARD!

It's pretty much Mini Metro, but for that one kid in your class who knew Pi to like 20 digits and kept twitching for some reason.

Well-designed puzzler. It's a great chill out game when you need a break at work.

Don't be fooled though. This is strictly a puzzle game and not a city simulator game.

Quality design. 4/5 stars.


Un juego precioso y super minimalista de construir carreteras. La verdad es que me ha parecido la hostia y es muy sencillo pasarselo pero es complicadisimo gestionarlo bien todo para que no colapse toda la ciudad. Recomendadísimo.

Just like mini metro. It’s good! It doesn’t do anything that different from metro, a couple different layers involved, but just as pretty and entertaining.

Very relaxing and interesting game. I’ve focused on having 1000 trips with the main mode but there are also other modes like challenges, endless, daily and weekly. You can play for a long time if you want to but I’ve had my fill for now.

did not think it was going to be as stress inducing as it is
still pretty fun though

This game escalates from "Chill zen vibes" to "Stressful and overwhelming" in a way that's really funny. Truly a game that exemplifies the folly of a society that underplays the importance of reliable public transportation.

There are ways to cheese the game but it's far from foolproof. Especially because this game is an asshole and knows exactly the worst spot to place a house in existence and WILL spawn a house at that worst spot without fail.

Yeah, that's how I'd best describe this game. This game is an asshole (affectionate).

A great chill game to play on stream and read chat to, highly reccomended.

A neat puzzle game that takes too long to get interesting.

At the time of me playing the game, there are currently 15 levels in the game. (Lisbon is the most recent level to come out). But levels 1-10 may as well be the same level. Every level is a different city of the world that will slowly populate with randomly generated houses and destinations you need to build roads between. What's the difference between the randomly generated houses in Los Angeles and the randomly generated houses in Tokyo? No idea. Couldn't tell you. Except that Tokyo has its one river in a different place than the one river in LA.

Honestly I was bored out of my mind and almost quit until I got to like level 11 where the maps finally started differentiating themselves a bit more with more rivers, mountains, and other obstacles you need to build around. I only wish every level felt as unique as the last handful.

+ Fun concept
+ Great visuals
+ Final few levels were interesting

- First 10 levels are basically identical
- Extremely repetitive gameplay

So much fun, there are times where the traffic is running so good and I can almost feel the fantasy of becoming a city planner cresting the horizon, the temptation to abandon it all and go back to school is almost there.

Then a destination building spawns right in the worst place possible and its gone, the dream is dead.


Such a fun timewaster. Hard to believe this ended up being one of my most played games of 2021. After like 200 hours I'll admit I started getting bored of it, but Mini Motorways will keep you playing way longer than you expected.

Good game just got bored of it after awhile
