Traffic Jam - Car Escape

This is the most fun version of these traffic games I've found, and for the first couple of years, we all played it a lot. It was a great stress reliever and fun. It had all the usual advertising that we dealt with in all the usual ways, and it didn't interfere. Then, they doubled the amount of ads and the ads started being mostly timed, so a lot longer. Much more of a pain, but the game was still worth it. We just had to add a lot more time in order to play the same number of rounds. However, during the last couple of years, they've started placing bar ads across the game itself, and they don't go away, even if you click on them and go to the website. They remain for the entire round and then sometimes even stay to cover the between-round selection choices to start a new round. So, you have to try to 'play' the game without being able to see the whole parking screen (only the top half) and you can't click on the cars that are hidden under the ad. No way to finish the game. This doesn't happen every round, though, so you can play a couple of rounds and enjoy the game for a brief time. But it's made the whole experience really unpleasant. It's also highly stressful, aggravating, and makes people determined to never purchase anything through those ads at all. The kids have all stopped playing it entirely -- tons of games to choose from; why waste time on one that sabotages your ability to even play it? Every now and then, I play it, but whenever one of the bar ads appears across the game screen, I just shut down the app and go on to something else. Instead of a whole family of people playing for hours, they caused us to go to one person who plays a few rounds every six months or a year before being driven out of the game. Definitely not worth your time to download. If not for this ad take-over, we'd have given this five stars, though. But since there are tons of car jam games, even the less-good ones are more worth your time if they don't have the same awful ad problem. It's a real shame.

Decent game until a banner ad covers the last move or two.

I downloaded this game and after playing a few rounds a deleted it.You can move you car because there is an advertisement blocking your view and if you make a move you hit another car that was in front. The ad cannot be delete. So what’s the point of playing.So don’t waste your time. It looks good it blocks you from playing it.🤷‍♂️
