UX: 9.4

The tap-to-move interface is impossible to misread. Cars highlight clearly when selected, arrows are always legible, and the queue counter sits exactly where your eye naturally rests. Menus load in under a second on a Pixel 6a and a 2020 Galaxy A series.

Visuals: 9.6

This is where the app punches above its weight. The 3D modelling is clean, the lighting is soft and toy-like, and the colour palette pops without ever feeling garish. Animations are buttery on 60Hz panels.

Difficulty: 8.8

Excellent overall pacing, with the only knock being a small cluster of levels in the 90s that lean on memorisation rather than pure deduction. Hint usage is fair: one free hint every few hours.

Stability: 9.3

Across 14 hours of testing on three Australian-purchased Android devices we saw zero crashes, two minor animation hitches, and no data loss after force-closing mid-level.

Monetisation: 8.7

Optional rewarded ads, no aggressive interstitials, no manipulative "limited offer" timers. The premium ad-removal price is reasonable by 2026 standards.
