Mini Motorways is a puzzle strategy game released by the New Zealand studio Dinosaur Polo Club. It is a follow-up to their 2015 video game Mini Metro. The game tasks the player with creating a network of roads to connect coloured houses to buildings. Through the use of upgrades such as traffic lights, roundabouts, and motorways, the player aims to build an efficient network, allowing cars to reach their destination before the timer runs out.

Runs well on modern hardware.

Imagine you need to go shopping, when some otherworldly being decides to take away your private train. You refuse, keep driving on the now non-existent road, because screw gravity. So what if someone forced all traffic through one single road? So, what you need to go to the other side of town just to do whatever it is the cars do in this game? That doesn't mean you'll cooperate with the rest of society and go through your designated path. And you know why? You enjoy being a menace. You will go all over town, and you will cause traffic problems at the entrances of people's homes. You don't mind. You figured out long ago when your private train started to disappear under your feet that you are a part of a simulation. You are not real. Nothing matters. The only thing left to do is to purposefully place another shop at the furthest corner of the map from any customers and cause more havoc. You are nothing, but you are a proud nothing. You managed to annoy god, or whoever it is controlling the formation of the place you once popped into and decided to call home. You are the loose end; you are the one who cracked the system so badly that the entire simulation collapsed under the pressure of supply and demand. You still don't care. Maybe if capitalism fails, you will finally cease to exist, or at least stop the suffer of what is known as traffic. Go! Encourage others to do the same! Go the long way everywhere, go round and round the poor roundabouts trying to help. Break the law! Crush into people at every intersection you pass! Go through red lights. Don't keep all colors separate, even if it will potentially help. You are a menace, but not a racist. You are just a small peice of the puzzle, but even if one piece goes missing the puzzle will never be complete. Yes, this game is very well made. It might be mimicing the world too well. I would absolutly continue playing instead of studying for my test.
A solid strategy/logistics game. There is a lot of problem solving to be done. I find this game addictive and it is real easy to lose track of time while playing it. Simplistic graphics and simple premise, but not a simple game. I am having a blast and will keep grinding away on this one.
