Read full descriptionHide full description
Free. No ads. No in-app purchases. Just pure gameplay. Draw flight paths, land aircraft, and keep the terminal alive in a fast-paced air traffic control arcade game. The terminal is open. The sky is already too busy. In Gridlock: Terminal, you control a crowded airspace where every aircraft needs a safe route home. Draw flight paths, guide aircraft to the correct runway, avoid hazards, and survive as the skies become increasingly chaotic. One bad route can cause a crash. One missed hazard can end the run. One more landing can beat your high score. Simple to learn. Difficult to master. NEW: Daily Dispatch Take on one official challenge every day. You get one attempt, one score, and one chance to climb the leaderboard before tomorrow's dispatch arrives. Compete on Game Center, unlock achievements, and become Terminal Master. Features - Draw flight paths with one finger - Land planes, jets, heavy aircraft, and helicopters - Match aircraft to the correct runway or helipad - Avoid birds, turbulence, screen edges, and mid-air collisions - Survive increasingly busy airspace - Take on the Daily Dispatch challenge - Compete on Game Center leaderboards - Unlock achievements and milestones - Chase your personal best - Quick arcade sessions built for "one more try" - Free to play Every landing counts. Every decision matters. How long can you keep the terminal alive?

You run the traffic lights. The cars never crash. Every bit of pressure comes from queues and gridlock — so this is a game of timing and judgment, not driving or reflexes. Calm to look at. Tense to play. Tap an intersection to switch its signal. Keep traffic flowing, clear the target before the bell, and earn 1, 2, or 3 stars. Let a junction jam and it's gridlock — start over. WHAT'S INSIDE • 50 hand-built levels across themed acts, each with a star rating and a difficulty grade • Many distinct map types: city grids, roundabouts, a bridge chokepoint over a river, one-way couplets, a grand boulevard, Y-merges, a diamond loop, arterial spines, and twin roundabouts • Tidal rush: traffic pours inbound, then reverses outbound mid-level, so the best plan keeps changing • Green-wave combo multiplier for keeping cars moving without stops • Daily Challenge — the same run worldwide each day — with a streak to defend • Free Play: endless mode with high scores and the odd breakdown to manage • Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulty • A real vehicle mix — cars, trucks, buses — plus emergency vehicles to wave through • AUTO mode: hand a signal over to the game once you've earned it • Game Center leaderboards and achievements CALM AND CONSIDERATE • One-handed, portrait, fully offline — no account, no sign-up • Colorblind signal palette and a reduce flashing & motion option Free to play. A single one-time Remove Ads purchase clears every ad for good. Ads served via Google AdMob. Outsmart the rush. Keep the city moving.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gridlock at none against Lane Logic's 3. Gridlock also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
