Can a Highway Engineer become the #1 Mini Motorways player?

Thank you to Dinosaur Polo Club for sponsoring this video, check out the Nintendo Switch version of Mini Motorways now!
Mini Motorways is a highway engineering puzzle game and in this video I, a highway designer of 10 years, see if my real life engineering skills help me become better at the Mini Motorways puzzle game by taking everything I have learned so far to the extreme to fix bad traffic and become the BEST IN THE WORLD in Mini Motorways!

It's also really good because anyone new can click on any one of the videos and understand what is going on! And it's not even in an irritating way that he does it, even though he explains the game every video, Matt manages to do it in a way that's fresh for every video and I love that.

You should remove all roads and motorways late game and try remaking everything neater. Love the Mini Motorways! 👍

[@corycrombie9148]

You can’t get all your resources back instantly if there is cars already in route which makes that hard to do

[@Taolan8472]

Periodically clearing the entire map and redoing your roads is a valid strategy, but if you do it too late you will lose while waiting for traffic to clear your bridges and motorways.

[@Trendyflute]

Imagine living in a little house and paying to have two cars just for the purpose of driving to the one and only commercial business that the road goes to, an IMAX. You see IMAX movies twice a day, all your nutritional needs are met by the concession stand, and social interaction occurs quietly during the movie until the people from the house next door (who also drove to the IMAX) shush you for talking during the movie. What a life!

"I'm the best at something!" ~ Motorway Matt, 2022 Congratulations!

[@Luuuuuck]

Can I just say, I appreciate you for turning on Night Mode. I'm actually watching your video in a really dark room and the bright white background is hurting my eye and head. So yea you now receive a new subdcriber and an active watcher cause I'm going to turn on the notification bell. I rarely do those since its kinda annoying. But yeah thats my appreciation for you.

You need to place empty roads on the sides where you don't want stuff to spawn in, especially in late game which helps a lot.

[@crowmossraven]

i always come back to this series :>

[@DailyBanter96]

Sorryi'm late but new idea! What if this game allowed the player 2 or even 4 lane streets. Basically allowing the same paths as the current streets however like in real life the center lane would travel fastest, or left lane for 2 lane streets. The benefit of this would be that traffic can flow a lot better in the sense that just because there is an intersection ahead or perhaps a blue car in front of a yellow car wants to turn thus slowing down the yellow car can be in the other lane and avoid slowing down. With 4 lanes this effect multiples into hopefully swift traffic similar to the motorways which currently are the fastest traffic but again only allow for a single path of traffic. I could only imagine how powerful the effect of a motorway with 4 lanes of traffic would become, especially if you could connect it to a large roundabout where the traffic could exit and go multiple central paths and to their various shops. I understand that this is a much more complicated idea than my last one however I do think it could be an addition that would truly keep the game's momentum alive. With games such as this, coming up with new ideas/challenges so players dont get bored with the game is essential if the game wants to stay alive.

[@keencar]

Why does this feel like the first mini motorway all over against..except this time he actually wins

[@InterlacedTech]

It's just disappointing how a casual player like me who got like no experience in Engineering yet and used to have a high score then got beaten in a strategic road construction game by a "Real Civil Engineer" (Oh God that's embarrassing😳)

One thing that could be neat would be an over/underpass upgrade

You made more motorways in Warsaw than there is in an entire Poland XD

[@DailyBanter96]

Got a nw idea while watching as well, so in my late arrival, I give 2 ideas today! This idea looks at an update for bridges. In the sense that perhaps they could allow the player to use the bridge on land as well to go over heavily congested traffic locations such as the center of town etc making a new road that wont have to suffer with congestion as much. We see this in daily life so why not in mini motorways!
