Read full descriptionHide full description
Sand Worm is a creative and satisfying puzzle unjam game where colorful worms are tangled together, and it’s your job to free them. Once released, each worm travels upward onto a conveyor to “eat” sand from a beautifully animated pixel-art sand painting. Solve the jam, start the flow, and watch the sand disappear strip by strip in a deeply relaxing visual effect. How to Play: Examine the pile of colorful worms stacked in a jam. Drag and free worms in the correct order to untangle the cluster. Once released, worms climb to the conveyor automatically. The conveyor feeds them pixel-art sand from the picture above. Clear all worms to fully “eat” the artwork and complete the level. Features: Unique worm-unjam mechanics inspired by satisfying sorting puzzles. Colorful worm characters with smooth, fun animations. Pixel-art sand paintings that get eaten away line-by-line. Relaxing conveyor movement and gentle sand-removal effects. Increasing difficulty with more complex jams and worm arrangements. Perfect mix of logic and satisfaction, ideal for casual puzzle lovers. Why You’ll Love It: Sand Worm blends the pleasure of unjamming puzzles, the charm of colorful characters, and the relaxation of satisfying sand-eating visuals. Every level feels rewarding as you free each worm and watch the pixel art gradually vanish in a smooth flow. If you enjoy logic puzzles, sorting games, color matching, or oddly satisfying mechanics, Sand Worm is a perfect fit. Unjam the worms, start the conveyor, and enjoy the calm destruction of pixel-art sand. Download Sand Worm now and dive into beautifully relaxing sand-eating puzzles!

You are the traffic controller. Tap a car to stop it, tap again to let it go. Keep a busy intersection flowing through rush hour without a single crash. Free to play, works offline, one thumb, quick runs. No timers, no lives, only an occasional short ad, and Remove Ads turns them off. Tap a car, it holds. Tap it again, it goes. Tap a pedestrian, they cross. That's the whole control scheme. The intersection is alive: cars roll in real time, and if you do nothing, they crash. Every run is a live decision, not a solved board. CONTROL THE FLOW - Live traffic control: every vehicle is rolling or held, and one tap switches it. - Flow Combo: chain safe passes to build your multiplier from ×1 up to ×4. - Flow Fever: fill the meter with brave near misses and score double for eight seconds. - Road Pressure: holding everything stalls the road toward gridlock; releasing everything is risky. The best play is flow. 15 ROADS, 9 WORLDS - Four-way crossings, T-junctions, school crossings, boulevards, and railway crossings where you have to beat the train. - Ambulances, police cars and fire trucks need a clear road, fast. - Play from sunny streets to snowy nights, sunset beaches and neon cities. PLAY YOUR WAY - Classic, Rush, Zen, Marathon, Hardcore and more modes. - 18 hand-made puzzle levels for when you want to think, not react. - Power-ups: slow motion, freeze, clear the box, shield and coin rain. - Daily and weekly challenges, missions, and a daily gift that never resets. BUILT FOR ONE THUMB, ANYWHERE - Short runs, restart in under a second. - Fully playable offline. Sound optional. - Portrait, one-handed, zero setup. COLLECT AND COMPETE - Unlock car paints, traffic light styles, trails and citizens. - Chase your high score on the Game Center leaderboards. - Cosmetics only. Nothing pay-to-win, ever. Tiny Tap City respects your time: your first run is the tutorial, there are no ad walls after every level, and no rigged near-miss bait. Just tap, control the traffic, and don't crash.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sand Worm at none against Traffic Control's 7. Sand Worm also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Traffic Control's advantage is device support. On price there is nothing between them.
