### 4/5 — Amazing

*2026-02-20, version 2.0*

Just one thing: Please add back the little sounds on the map view, or make it optional, I missed the sounds… :(
It was calming opening this up and just listening to my subpar interchanges somehow work as the cars made their sounds

### 3/5 — Hohes Potential

*2026-02-04*

Jedoch gibt es keinerlei Anleitung. Ich weiß nicht genau was ich tun soll?

### 4/5 — Very good, but maybe add this one feature and it’ll be really fun

*2025-11-22, version 2.0*

Can you add another island with more features and Maybe add a level or island maker so you can share the island that you made with other people and other people can play it.

### 5/5 — Aşırı iyi

*2025-11-16, version 2.0*

Oyunu güzel yapan şey komplike olmaması. Trafik mühendisliği ile ilgileniyorsanız şuana kadarki en iyi oyun

### 5/5 — Worth the money

*2025-11-08, version 2.0*

Really great game and it’s worth the money

### 5/5 — More maps please

*2025-11-06, version 2.0*

I’d pay for more maps

### 5/5 — Brilliant Puzzle Game!

*2025-11-03, version 2.0*

The new 80 levels are excellent and I’ve replayed the original levels twice now, the addition of hitting a goal score and tolls keeps me replaying the new completed levels. Well done! Enjoyable hours upon hours spent in this app!

### 3/5 — Great game, but not on iOS.

*2025-11-03, version 2.0*

This game is wonderfully simple, and super fun to play. However if you are on an iPhone or iPad, trying to draw roads from connections at the top or bottom of the screen is impossible without also either going to your home page or opening up Notification Centre. only way I have found around it is starting a road, then dragging from a different point on the screen. Needs fixing though because it makes the game horribly enraging.

### 5/5 — Save and quit error

*2025-10-19, version 2.0*

For some reason the save and quit button doesn’t work. Please fix this error. Good game.

### 5/5 — 数年ぶりにアップデートされてた!

*2025-09-28*

待望のUndo、ベストスコアの保存、新ステージ追加!
以前の不満が全て解消されてます。

あえて言えばRedoも欲しいですが、試行錯誤が好きな人には永遠に遊べる名作だと思います。

### 5/5 — Kauf hat sich gelohnt

*2025-09-28*

Ich war erst skeptisch wegen den Rezensionen doch ich hab es mal einen Versuch gegeben. Das Spiel ist leicht zu verstehen und teilweise herausfordernder als man denkt. Ich dachte auch erst: „Ach man, gibt es wenige Level die man lösen muss.“ Doch als ich alle gelöst hatten kamen immer weitere dazu. Gegen Ende waren es so ca. 80 Stück was vollkommen okay ist. Sehr cooles und feines Game. Reicht für einige Stunden Spielspaß.

### 4/5 — Simply superb

*2025-09-13, version 2.0*

I don’t usually write reviews, but hear me out. This game is a dream. Easy controls with addictive game play. It’s so refreshing to play a game with zero adverts or in app purchases. Yes you pay a small fee to purchase but it’s worth it. I’d happily pay £5. The game has a few draw backs, like selecting some roads sends you to the app page or pulls down the iphone control menu but these are easily overlooked. The only thing I’d like to see is 3 high bridges but I suppose that would make the game too easy!

### 4/5 — Great game worth buying

*2025-08-12, version 2.0*

Love the game. Enjoying all my time with it immensely. It definitely scratches an itch I didn't know I had. It's clever and fun. The controls however are kinda annoying. They need reworked. They break a lot and cause delays and frustration.

### 5/5 — love this game

*2025-08-10, version 2.0*

this game scratches an itch for me. i can’t put it down!

### 3/5 — Witziges Spiel, noch viel Potenzial!

*2025-07-23*

Das Spiel macht an sich richtig Spaß. Leider  gibt es -noch- keinen Radierer, damit könnte man seine Straßen richtig effektiv optimieren. Spielstand wird auch nicht auf andere Geräte übertragen.
 Bei mir ist leider das Menü weg. Habe auf dem iPhone den „small-screen-Mode“ testweise deaktiviert und jetzt kann ich ihn nicht mehr aktivieren. Gibt es dafür einen fix?

### 3/5 — Tu im’eove

*2025-07-23, version 2.0*

Should be possible to erase a part of thebroad instead of reseting thé game!

### 5/5 — Best puzzle game on iOS

*2025-07-08, version 2.0*

This is my favorite game to play on my iPad to pass the time, it's super fun, simple, and challenging! Definitely worth the money!

### 3/5 — Potential

*2025-07-06*

Das Spiel macht grundlegend sehr viel Spaß, aber es ist noch so unfertig, dass es noch keine 5 Sterne verdient hat. Ich hoffe der Entwickler verbessert das Spiel noch etwas. Funktionen, die ich mir Wünsche: - einen Radiertool, - Simulation mit einstellbarer Geschwindigkeit, - transparenteres Punktesystem, - bessere Grafik, um Straßen einfacher zu unterscheiden, - Musik, Soundeffekt

### 1/5 — BAD GAME DONT BUY

*2025-07-28, version 2.0*

it isn’t realistic at all and makes it a pain to even try and play the game don’t bother

### 1/5 — Jamm at Map 4

*2025-06-07*

Game not allowing me to build bridges in map 4

### 1/5 — More level

*2025-03-10, version 2.0*

Great game, undo button is added and it is a great feature, maybe add an eraser tool, it might be useful too. But most importantly more level, also make an online community where others can create their own level

### 1/5 — Schlecht

*2025-02-02*

Muss immer neu bauen, sobald mal ein kleiner Fehler drinnen ist und ist teilweise einfach nur verbuggt, sodass man zehn Minuten etwas baut und dann nochmal anfangen muss.

### 1/5 — Undo button

*2023-10-07, version 1.6*

Lack of the undo button is a real flaw.

Edit: Removing stars since devs are ignoring the community

### 1/5 — Needs an Undo Button

*2022-10-13, version 1.6*

Sad that the developers will not listen to the fan base on this.

### 1/5 — Noch nicht mal kostenlos

*2022-08-14*

Das Spiel ist lieblos gemacht, macht man einen Fehler oder verklickt sich muss man alles nochmal neu machen. Es gibt keine Möglichkeit die Straße exakt grade zu ziehen. Auffahrt kann man auch nicht wirklich clean machen.
Fazit:
Absolute Frechheit!

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2022-08-07, version 1.6*

Fun game but rendered almost unplayable due to the lack of an erase/undo option.  One small mistake can cause you to have to reset a level since it’s impossible to cancel a road.

### 1/5 — Great game, but KEY flaw!!

*2022-07-30, version 1.6*

Please, please, please, developer, put in an edit undo feature. I’d change to rating to FIVE stars!! You would get so many more users! Without it, it’s a completely different, unfinished game.

### 1/5 — Unplayable on iPhone

*2022-07-29, version 1.6*

Close to impossible to play on an iPhone because you constantly drag the Control Center or notifications rather than drawing roads. The lack of an undo button just rubs it in. Don’t waste your money.

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2026-08-09, version 2.0*

This game is very fun. It’s easy to learn but also challenging in some levels which is great. But something happened to my game were when I try to play the game it just is a black screen and kicks me out

### 5/5 — I love making my streets efficient

*2026-05-14, version 2.0*

Simple, fun, and agonizing! Love trying to get the little cars to their destinations. The only way this could be better is with trains! But that’s a different game :)

### 5/5 — Designing highways is fun and satisfying

*2026-04-16, version 2.0*

I got an email from a recruiter today who complemented me on my highway design experience. I have never designed a highway except in this game so the only possible explanation is that she saw my high score and wanted to offer me a job because of it. This game is so good you can use it to kickstart your career as a highway designer. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Whole family plays this one.

*2026-03-20, version 2.0*

This game is fantastic.

### 5/5 — Top Game Very Addictive

*2026-03-04, version 2.0*

Needs work on graphics and controls can be a little clunky but over all a solid and very addictive game. Looking forward to a new set of levels!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-02-15, version 2.0*

Need a new update

### 5/5 — Best game

*2026-01-25, version 2.0*

Best game in the App Store hands down

### 5/5 — Good sim

*2026-01-22, version 2.0*

I like this sim not for its look and feel but the simple challenge of continuously improving and testing a roadway design.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-01-08, version 2.0*

How this game is rated only 3.7 is nuts. Great game.

### 5/5 — Listen. This Game.

*2025-11-25, version 2.0*

I have played this game for YEARS after seeing it recommended in MacLife. I can’t count the number of times I’ve finished it, cleared out the entire map and started again. It’s my main airplane time-passer. I hadn’t checked on it in a while, and imagine my THRILL to discover the entirely new map and updates. Well done, developer. You’ve got one happy person 35k feet in the air!
