Traffic Puzzle: Car Jam Escape Reviews

by Ladyhawk1623

There are so many things wrong from the beginning!! Disclosures of information sharing/use?? I’m in California and there are NO ways to bow out.
The game play is ridiculous! It tells you in the middle of a game that there are no more moves... if you ignore it and push past the warning by closing the pop-up... you complete the level in three moves and win 3 stars. What? Yes... if you just keep closing the ‘upgrades for sale’ to win your game... you will anyway! This game is a game that is obviously just farming for information or pushing a monetary bonus for THEM in what they label as an upgrade so you can continue the game.
DO NOT BOTHER WITH THIS PSEUDO-GAME! It’s a ploy for getting ‘upgrade’ money and sellable data from you! Shameful!

This game is ridiculously fun and addictive however they never fixed (even after I reached out to them on several occasions) the awarded tokens for completing a series. Ive taken snapshot after snapshot about this issue not awarding me the tokens due me. It clearly shows x amount of tokens at the top them when you win more that number never increases that's a rip-off and they are aware of it yet REFUSE TO correct that issue so for that issue alone it gets a 1 star from me since you neglected to correct an identified glitch in your game.

After level 713 when the game cheated and made me play the board over I uninstalled the gave …. No more money from me dudes!!!! This was a fun game but after being cheated over snd over and I reached out to the developers no response!!!! I’m done! Find another!

In short, this game is a cheat. It’s actually a cute game- however, I
Played this level no less than 15 times AFTER I caught the cheat just to document what the game does in an effort to make you watch ads, spend boosters, and eventually $ to buy those boosters.
3 cars locked 3 times must be freed in order to pass the level. To free them you must match with 2 additional same color cars for each unlock, or use joker/funny car boosters, which are sometimes- maybe- randomly given during the level. Except, the game NEVER gives you the amount you will need to unlock those cars. It doesn’t matter if you are game playing mental guru, you can’t unlock the cars unless you are given the means to do so, which the game won’t provide. Well, not unless you watch umpteenth ads, and/or pay for the extra moves- which at some point you do. Hard or near impossible levels are a given in any game. Most times you are given what you need in the wrong order, etc. just refusing to provide the means to pass a level is unacceptable.

I’m not fond of being cheated. Skip this one.

I’ve played up to level 759 and have decided that I would not recommend getting involved. I kept thinking I could figure out how to strategize the moves. NOT. It’s cleverly rigged to keep you interested just enough to get you to make a few purchases here and there. Every so often, a puzzle is offered that you can actually win, but they are too few and far between. Too bad! It could be a very enjoyable game. Sorry folks, it’s just another greedy little game that doesn’t allow any skill set or innovative thinking. Just mixed up playing fields with no chance to really use your brain. Don’t waste your time or your money on this one unless you want to be thoroughly “unsatisfied”!

Really fun concept, but lacks proper planning to keep people playing the game. Rewards are terrible, cost of coins is terrible. The game isn’t set up to give you anywhere close to the amount of coins you need. It should give you enough that you feel like it’s justifiable to buy some coins for a level here and there. I understand the point is to make money, but to do that the gamer needs to feel like they have a chance of winning. The levels get to the point where 1/2 - 2/3rds require extra cars, unless you’re willing to repeatedly play the same level. I will play a couple of levels several times, occasionally giving into buying extra cars on a level here and there, but it gets old very quickly when I have to play most levels repeatedly, and I will not continually shell out money for extra cars for 2/3rds - 1/2 of the levels. I deleted the game from my phone. I have others that do a better job of keeping me engaged.

Update: I reached out to customer service regarding an in-app issue. The problem was bad and the customer service was even worse. I mean it when I’ll say I will never use another Huuuge developed app.

The amount of advertisements in TrafficPuzzle should get this developer banned. This entire game feels like an advertisement with occasional game play. I have NEVER played a game in the 12 years I’ve used the iPhone that required you to sit through an advertisement after completing a level.

Many of the levels are lost by being short of one car. Convenient. However, by sitting through an advertisement you can get an additional few moves! The only time it’s semi-worth waiting through an advertisement is for the police car boost. Otherwise, TrafficPuzzle is nothing more than ads with occasional gameplay.

I like this game however the higher and levels you get the worst you naked for people to get past them I have been stuck on level 260 for well over two weeks now because you give such a small amount of cars you can’t get through the level. Even my six-year-old nephew says that you’re cheating us you’re trying to get money out of us to buy those coins and I’m not buying any coins I haven’t had to buy coins all the way up to level 260 and now here this one comes along and you want to cheat us out of enough cars to even get through the level. Makes me wonder if anybody has even finish this game at all.

I like this game and think the traffic puzzles are challenging. But the number of ads is ridiculous. I paid the basic fee to remove ads. It doesn’t matter. Watching a minute or longer ad is required to spin the “free” daily wheel, to add extra moves which are required on most of the puzzles, or simply to play the game. To get through one challenge you must watch at least one 60-second ad. The game is rigged so that you never receive extra moves or helps or shortcuts to pass the challenge unless you watch at least one 60-second add and usually two 60-second ads. I can honestly say that I’ve never been required to watch more ads than when trying to play this game. It is frustrating and a shame because the game itself has a good concept and presents a good puzzle. The developers need to rethink their strategy because playing the game is an ad nightmare.

by Sparkle.pony.mermaid

This would be 100% my favorite game based on the puzzles. But oh my lord the ads. Most games you are asked to watch an ad to get a reward, move a level, something. While you can watch an ad and gain a car or lives, they also just spring them on you at random moments with no warning. Win a level? Bam here’s an ad (feels like punishment for a job well done). Going between map areas? Here’s an ad. And they’re all really loud with horrible controls so you try to silence them and have to punch frantically at your screen while a knight grunts like he’s relieving himself as loudly as possible. I get it, ads keep games like this free. But the better games have a tacit agreement with the user and they’re not sprung on you willy-nilly.

Like everyone else lately, this game now freezes within a minute or so after launch. The Dev’s keep giving the same canned response “check your internet connection, etc” — but they clearly made some programming mistakes in TrafficPuzzle after the last update, and now no one can play the game. I too have spent countless hours enjoying this game, I’m in the high 300 levels, and now haven’t been able to load this game for 2 weeks. Developers: instead of giving us a canned response, as if no one knows how to connect to the internet, how about you instead just admit that you screwed up your own game - and give us an actual timeline for when you’ll fix it? Love the game, but hate that you act like we’re all stupid.

If you like puzzles and strategy this game is for you. It’s fun and challenging and easy to play a game for a few minutes here and there or to sit and play for a while.
My only gripe is the price of the coins if you choose to purchase them. I don’t mind spending a few bucks here and there because it’s a way to support the creators of the game. But $7-$10 is a bit more than I want to spend at one time. I wish they had an option for a couple bucks.
That being said, I love to play the game and then when I run out of lives I play the side game too.
Great game!

So when I saw this game ad it seemed really childish….but fun. So I downloaded it. When I started playing I was pleasantly surprised. It’s honestly really fun. It might seem like a childish boring game you’ll stop playing in a week but I started and it’s super fun. I can’t stop playing. The game is kinda like a puzzle. You have to get three or more cars in a row of the same color until the whole game board is empty and the cars got out of traffic. Sort of like candy crush. You go to different levels and the game board looks like candy crush too. The only thing that’s a killer is the ads. After every level you beat or lose at, you get an ad. You also have the choice to watch an ad and then get extra points or moves when your playing, or you have the choice to just start over that one level. Other than the ads, there’s no glitches or things the game needs to really make it better, which is good. I would really recommend this game if you like a challenge and also just a relaxing game to play. I hope you liked my review👋

I wanted to say I have a great time playing. I love the mind stretch in trying to figure out which way, which order the cars are to get the task done!
My only only complaint is that side game —that a person is never going to win without having to buy more coins...my favorite game Gummy Drops(I love the strategy) you can play it over and over but eventually you get to overcome and win..the side game isn’t just happy using /adding one batch of more coins...but then becoming totally greedy if you need to add more. For instance it’s okay to say need 9 coins for 5 moves..and even if you have to buy more (everyone knows that your objective is for the player to buy coins) but then to jump to 19 coins...it just makes me angry.
***Otherwise the developer has done a fantastic job in creating a different kind of game then all the others. It’s addictive and enjoyable.***

I’ve been playing this game for about 10 weeks, and it’s been OK but nothing I am really excited about.

I downloaded this game because of the complex train puzzles and I’m kind of a train nut. But when I started playing the game it started with cars and trains only showed up occasionally and not to the same degree that the add showed.

The most disappointing part of the puzzle is there appears to be no help with solutions. I have been stuck on level 97 for over a month. It’s too the point that I hadn’t played it in a couple of weeks, and when I tried again tonight I was still unable to solve the puzzle. It’s a planting grass puzzle and I haven’t found any tips or tricks in determining where the grass actually is, and it appears to move from game to game.

I gave this game 3 stars because I did enjoy it until now. I’m going to give it another week or two before I give up and remove it from my ipad.

UPDATE: I went to the developer website and using the support area was able to determine why I was having an issue with Level 97 and now I have gotten past it. I’m still not entirely thrilled with the game, as the train puzzles (which attracted me in the first place) only show up about every 10+ levels or so. I wish there was an option to request more of certain puzzles.

I thought this would be a game where the cars would crash into each other. I’m glad it isn’t that way. But sometimes the arrangements are designed to make you lose and have to play over and over again if you’re too broke to buy extra moves and whatnot. Other than that, it’s a good game. Update: Level 109 is completely unfair because all the locks are around the center square leaving one snow patch left and no way to win. Either redo Level 109 to make it winnable or I’ll have to quit playing except for the side quests.
Now that I’ve gotten past Level 109, I want to know why leftover moves aren’t added to the score anymore. And I don’t believe the tow truck exists or it would have been made available when you started advertising it.

While I enjoy this program, it needs some TLC! The program often locks up. It also often does not register your accomplishments. For example, road obstacles does not always award properly. Finally, there is no way to save your place! I was on level 2161, and the program locked. I tried everything to no avail. Re-installed the program, as suggested, and lost everything! Of course, that includes the financial investment. Now I will never buy coins!

by 1stCeye

I tried this when It first went on the market. I quickly thought it too childish and deleted it. Two days ago, much to my surprise, a new ad popped up 😛and now it looked like something to check out again! It was and NOW I’m NOT bored!! I started playing and haven’t stopped until now....level 20 something...the challenges are great and you can always check to see where you stand against your friends’ scores! Now I have another game I can play with no stress and just enjoy it...

by Chrissoviye147

So some other puzzle games I play are kinda boring to me so I found this game and I found it interesting, even though I just downloaded it 2 days ago I got obsessed with it! It clears my boredom so whenever I get bored I play this game, I love how they added different things in the new stages when you unlocked each areas after you’re done finishing the stages before first, this game is a 5 star in my opinion because of how amazing it is, don’t waste your time searching for puzzle games, this game in the best for you to download, I have no regrets downloading this game! <3

Level 2130 appears to be the end. Keeps sending updates but no more levels. Says coming soon but it’s been weeks with no more levels. When will you have more levels? Supposed to be a new tow truck but I don’t have it either. What do I have to do to get more to play Happy today when I opened and found 15 more levels. Keep them coming! Thanks

Once again waiting for more. Wait weeks before there is more. About to delete

I love this game. I don’t understand the people complaining about paying money to win. I paid $1.99 to get rid of ads and haven’t spent a cent more. I’m on level 513 and some levels have definitely been more challenging than others. But it’s a puzzle game! You’ll eventually figure the level out without spending money. I play this way too often lol. Again, I love this game!
