Traffic management game for mobile

Traffic Jam Fever is a free simulation game for mobile coming from Mood Games. It is a management sim wherein players will be in charge of putting up public roads for vehicles to pass through. All the while you need to manage the flow of traffic and prevent major congestion of cars.

Featuring some similarities with games like Idle Train Empire: Tycoon Game or Rain Nation – Railroad Tycoon, one of the main aspects of Traffic Jam Fever is the laying down of tracks, or in its case, roads. This crucial gameplay element is made simple with intuitive swipe-based controls.

Lay down roads

Laying the groundwork is one of the most basic principles of any city builder game. It’s usually the first order of business that needs attention and will affect how developments and constructions will proceed thereafter. Here then comes Traffic Jam Fever, a game that takes this concept and makes the central core of its gameplay, resulting in a simplistic yet engaging experience.

In this game you’re in charge of building public utility roads that cover long-stretching highways to winding intersections and ideally located roundabouts. The controls revolve around swipes and gestures that have you drag and draw as you lay down pathways in any direction you want. Purchase cars, and you will gradually earn income from your roads, letting you build more and add more vehicles.

What’s more, you will need to manage the flow of traffic, and one of the ways to do so is by tapping cars to increase their speed. The whole gameplay loop is simple and easy to learn but gets more challenging and engaging as more vehicles and roads are added to the mix. One area the game could improve is the overly plain and bare design.

Surprisingly challenging

To conclude, if you like the building experience of city builder games but want something more accessible for mobile gameplay, then give Traffic Jam Fever a try. It’s a deceptively simple game that actually provides a nice challenge while keeping the control simple. The graphics will be a bit too plain for some, but if you don’t mind that, have a go at this one.
