Therapeutic and chill game while being challenging enough. I still hate car-based infrastructure IRL.

Oh I just passed 10 hours non stop playing this game since I bought it... Be carefull... addictive af.
A wonderful, almost therapeutic game, about sending cars to their destination. something to chill out and relax to after a hard day of work. ...that is, until you stop watching somebody playing it online and play it yourself. This game can get very chaotic very quickly. Especially if you're trying for higher scores! But all in all, this is a great game. The developers clearly care- having implemented a long requested 'creative' mode just recently, for no additional cost. And the game has been out over four years at this point, so there was no reason for them to do this. If you think it looks nice, then just give it a go! It can be nice to play if nothing else is currently taking your fancy.
Fantastic 'casual'/puzzle/time-management game that almost anyone could pick up and play within 5 minutes. Tons of playtime too.
Mini Motorways Review Mini Motorways is a masterclass in minimalistic design meeting deep strategic gameplay. At first glance, it feels deceptively simple: connect houses to destinations by drawing roads across an ever-expanding city. But very quickly, what starts as neat and orderly turns into a thrilling test of foresight, adaptability, and problem-solving. The clean, modern art style is more than just aesthetically pleasing—it makes the game’s increasing chaos feel approachable and even calming at times. The soft color palette and soothing soundscape provide the perfect backdrop for the kind of stress that feels fun rather than frustrating. What really sets Mini Motorways apart is its balance between relaxation and intensity. A few missteps in planning can snowball into gridlock, yet every failure feels like a learning experience rather than a punishment. Each round encourages experimentation: Should you use your precious motorways to cut across the city’s sprawl, or ...
Recommend to contemplate the amount of space roads take up. Playing along-side Mini Metro highlights the difference. Metro invites you to imagine the thriving metropolis which you are connecting, Sure the suburbs kill your metro as people try to commute to the city or their jobs - and you wonder why this city was zoned with industry and one side and suburbs on the other - but you are connecting people with play, sport, jobs, others, etc. Motorways only has shops and houses, there's no community, no greater purpose. It's a consumerist, car-centric hellscape. Good art, I enjoyed it - wont play motorways again, too depressing
A simple, fun, and relaxing game that anyone can play
A calming game that has enough challenge to entertain you and keep you focused while not being stressful. Definitely a chill game to play when you have some down time
the game is great,fun and causal but not too easy
Its very satisfying setting up the city. Makes you think. Great game for watching tv shows on the second monitor.
