I first ran into this game a few years back when I was doing some Christmas shopping for young family members. The idea behind the game is simple, but the game itself provides many challenges for young people. Here's the basic premise of the game. You have a car which is caught in the middle of a gridlocked traffic pattern. There are cars and trucks everywhere, and you must clear a path for your car to get through. Clever, yes?

Of course, it can be much harder than it sounds. There are "playing cards" that come with the game, and each card has a traffic pattern for you to set up on the board. And each traffic pattern is a carefully designed puzzle that is guaranteed to make you think long and hard to get your car through.
