Traffic Controller

About the game

An original browser game by Zarocer.

One intersection, four queues, and two signals make Traffic Controller a compact test of timing and attention. Your shift lasts 90 seconds. Move at least 80 cars through the junction while keeping every queue at 12 cars or fewer. Traffic increases as the shift progresses, so leaving one direction green will eventually cause gridlock. Watch both sides of each road and decide when the other axis needs its turn. Every signal change includes a short safety clearance. Replay the fixed shift to improve your local record or try the daily challenge, shared by UTC date. Keyboard, mouse, and touch controls are supported. Your game saves on this device, and a restored shift can continue as a local attempt. Global leaderboards are not enabled yet.

Controls

Choose Start shift or Daily shift. Use ↑/↓ or North/South for the vertical axis, and ←/→ or East/West for the horizontal axis. Watch the four queue counters. Switch before any queue exceeds 12 cars. Pass at least 80 cars before the shift ends. Pause to save; Continue shift restores a local attempt.
