If you are looking to escape from a traffic jam, what could be better than playing a traffic management simulation game? (not if you’re the driver of course: don’t play this game if you’re driving, actually!!!). Traffic can create stressful situations, but with Traffix 3D, the effect is the exact opposite: you will feel pleasure simply by tapping and holding your finger on the screen and letting the cars pass through the traffic lights. Traffix 3D is actually a game derived from a Premium title powered by Infinity Games: Traffix, but it provides new mechanics, 3D graphics, 100+ cities, dozens of new vehicles and a newly developed atmosphere inspired by the minimalism from the premium version. Unlike the Premium Version, Traffix 3D is 100% free! The goal of Traffix 3D is the same as the Premium Traffix game: Avoid accidents, but at all cost. If you let a single car crash, then you will need to restart the level. You pass the level after safely delivering to their destination a specific number of cars. In other words, you must keep both cars and pedestrians happy. Lastly, you should build your car collection! There are 3 ways to unlock cars: By getting in-app currency: You can win coins by passing the levels successfully. These coins allow you to unlock rare cars. By finding keys during the gameplay and unlocking classic cars from their garages By mysterious ways that will unlock you some Crazy Cars! You will be travelling between different cities from New York, Roma, Berlin, Palermo or Seoul. More cities will be added: Feel free to drop us an e-mail if you want your city to be featured in the game.

One word square a day. Every row and every column of the 5×5 grid must be a word, ten in all. Ten letters are there from the start. The rest arrive as small pieces that you drag in and tap to rotate. When all ten lines are words, you've solved it. Any ten real words count, not only the ones the puzzle was built from. Everyone gets the same board each day, and your first attempt is the one that counts. HOW IT WORKS • Drag pieces onto the grid and tap to turn them • The grid checks itself as you go • Your time is your score • Hints are there if you're stuck, but each one adds time: +1:00 for the first, +2:00 for the second EVERY PUZZLE IS SOLVABLE Each square is built from a finished grid of familiar words, then letters are taken away. No obscure answers, and no days without a solution. KEEP YOUR STREAK Streaks with freezes, a week at a glance, and your stats. Share your result without spoiling the answer. MORE TO PLAY Unlock the full archive of past days, plus 4×4 and 6×6 puzzles. NO ACCOUNTS. NO TRACKING. Works offline. Your progress stays on your device.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 5 Griddy at 100% against Traffix 3D's 25%. 5 Griddy also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ads (none vs shown). Traffix 3D's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
