Car Jam: Escape Traffic Puzzle 12+

Fun game with one exception

I like the game. It requires some thought and planning. It does require watching ads to unlock additional parking spaces, but that’s better than having to buy stuff to win. There is one glaring problem. When you fill all the parking spaces, it defaults to the buy (with in game “coins”) or watch an ad to sort the passengers and unlock an additional parking space. The X to close this dialogue box is in the same place as the locked parking spaces. I have occasionally gone to click on a parking spot to unlock it with coins, but hit the X instead. At this point you get a screen that says “Defeat?” and your ONLY option is to confirm defeat and start the level over. WHY ISN’T THERE AN OPTION TO RETURN TO THE DIALOGUE BOX AND WATCH THE AD??? It is incredibly frustrating to accidentally click the wrong button and lose all progress and have to start over. Five stars if you fix the involuntary quit problem.

Great Concept, Poor Execution

I caved and installed this game, got addicted quickly, but had to leave a review after consistently playing. I even bought the permanent ad removal expecting no ads but it only lessened them and didn't remove them entirely. I was also hoping it would permanently unlock the extra parking spaces because it's extremely cumbersome to have to manually unlock each parking space every round, which requires you to watch ads. If I paid to remove ads then why haven't all parking spaces permanently unlocked? I understand watching ads to access some extra features but not features required to successfully play a level. I should still be able to defeat a level with either the minimum amount of parking spaces or the full amount of parking spaces without wasting several minutes watching very long ads. I'm disappointed the purchase I made didn't actually mean less interruptions. If I don't want to watch ads I can use boosters but guess what? You have to buy them with coins. You don't earn any boosters regardless of how well you play the game. You get no rewards for beating any levels. Only miniscule amounts of coins. If I wanted to play this game uninterrupted I would have to buy an exorbitant amount of coins to skip ads, which is unacceptable. I'll have to uninstall. I'm going to miss playing this game but not at the cost of wasting time waiting for ads to finish. I guarantee I've watched more ads in this game than actually played the game itself.

Absolutely horrible!

I gave this five stars just to get visibility but honestly, I would give this NO stars if I could. I understand that putting ads is the way that developers make money but to develop a game that is impossible to win unless you watch several ads is ridiculous. I can understand an ad in the start or the end of a level and if somebody is taking more than 10 minutes to complete a level, throwing another one halfway through, but for someone to watch an ad to win is excessive. it takes away the fun from playing the game because it basically means that you don’t need to strategically think in order to win a level, which basically means that no matter how “difficult“ level is it will always be easy if you watch ads. Something else that happens is that you cannot have something playing in the background while playing this game. I cannot listen to an audiobook or music while playing this game because it lowers the volume on the background noise without actually changing it so the whole time you play the game and listen to something in the background It sounds like it’s underwater.
