I can make the hideous broken nightmares I create look all festive. That's my holidays sorted! It also brings new achievements, revamped colourblind options, and seasonal photo frames.
#MINI MOTORWAYS HIGHWAY UPDATE#
The Challenge City Update will be live "soon", apparently. Every city now has this stuff! It's horrifying, but mainly wonderful - absolutely wonderful. I am resolutely okay at Mini Motorways - enthusiastic rather than talented - but I am struggling to break 500 on Highway to Hollywood, and I can't even bring myself to fire up Gridlock. Challenges are, happily, a maddening delight to play. It is a testament to this beautiful game that you can tweak the rules and ensure that even reading about it will make me panic. Sure, you start Gridlock with three motorways, but diagonal roads require double the number of tiles, and you kick off with 150 road tiles and then that's it. I quake at the thought of even typing this. Gridlock, meanwhile, may be proper survival horror. Stars in Their Eyes gives you double the weekly choice upgrades, which sounds lovely, but all weekly choices are now a mystery, which is the very opposite of lovely. Other challenges - and this is just the LA challenges, remember - are equally devious. Watch on YouTube The Mini Motorways teaser trailer. One motorway in all of LA, and no more, ever? This should be illegal. My Only Motorway: Start with 1 motorway, and no further motorways are offered.
Rush Hour: All destinations are much busier. Seeing Double: Double the number of traffic lights awarded. Build a road network, one road at a time, to create a bustling metropolis. How much? I almost wept when I read the first challenge for LA. Mini Motorways is a game about drawing the roads that drive a growing city. But this is Mini Motorways, and the conditions matter. Again, if this was any other game, I wouldn't be too excited.
#MINI MOTORWAYS HIGHWAY SERIES#
Each city now has a series of bespoke challenges, which basically juggle two or three conditions that you have to play under.
Mini Motorways' new update adds challenges, which might not initially seem like a huge deal - if this was any other game. Economy is always the thing with this game, in which so much of the chaotic city experience emerges as you draw roads between homes and offices. Mini Motorways has just come along with an update and made the same point as Davis with much greater economy. Tapping the map once zooms in to the build mode. Placing resources is as simple as dragging and dropping (highways and traffic lights) or simply tapping and dragging (roads and bridges). Each space can be occupied by one of the available resources. Mike Davis has spent decades writing really big books with incredibly brilliant titles - City of Quartz, Ecology of Fear - arguing that Los Angeles, sweet El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles sobre el Río Porciúncula, is a kind of hell on earth. Mini Motorways uses an intuitive grid system.
