Honk! Honk! It's gridlock and the little red car can't move. The player is a traffic cop in the Rush Hour Traffic Jam Puzzle where the objective is to get the red car off the road. To play, pick one of 40 challenge cards; solutions are printed on the back of each card. Then set up the cars and buses in a specified pattern on the 6-inch-square road grid. Move the vehicles one by one (obey those traffic laws!) until the red car can escape the traffic jam. There are four levels of difficulty. Kids can alternate turns with another player or just "play in traffic" alone. The game from Binary Arts received a national award from Mensa and is used in elementary school math classes. The design includes clear instructions printed on the sturdy box, which can be used both as a playing tray and for storage. The game cards stow away in a drawer in the road grid. This is a 1999 Parents' Choice recommended toy. --Marcie Bovetz
Review
Forty cards each show a different version of total gridlock, with one red car hemmed in by other vehicles that block the single exit. Select a card and replicate its pattern on the playing surface, then figure out the right sequence of moves to shift obstructing cars and trucks out of the way. Solutions are included. (Ruth B. Roufberg, Parent's Choice®, 1996) -- From Parents' Choice®

The cards fit in a handy little drawer in the parking lot game board. I just wish the plastic cars fit in a compartment somewhere too! The game does include a small drawstring bag to store pieces in, but this isn’t a great solution because the little cars can fall out of the bag’s opening pretty easily. Also, the board doesn’t fit in the bag with them so it’s not a great design—I wish it could all be contained in one thing. I have seen a travel case for the game for sale on Amazon, but 1) I don’t really want to spend the money and 2) I don’t think it’s a great idea to travel with this game because if you lose one car, the whole set is basically useless. When I travel with kids we bring Plus-Plus building pieces because they are all the same so it’s not a big deal if you lose a couple.
So I would rate this game as 5 stars for being a fun, giftable, moderately challenging logic puzzle that is great for the recommended ages but Amazon asked me to rate on travel ability so I will say 4 stars overall
The solutions are on the back of the cards and if you have to use one, you quickly see the moves you should’ve made!

sacó en una fiesta familiar y los adultos allí presentes también pasaron un muy buen rato jugado con él.
Sinon on ne s’en sort pas car la chance n’a rien avoir dans cette histoire.
Vraiment à conseiller pour les enfants pour meubler les longs trajets ou les moments d’attente c’est l’idéal.
C’est aussi une bonne idée cadeau d’appoint même si le prix est assez cher pour de simples cartes et des voitures simples en plastique.
