Editorial Review
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
Rush Hour is the mind-challenging game of pure bumper-to-bumper fun! Players set up the cars and trucks on a game grid to match one of forty color-coded challenge cards, and then try to maneuver the red car to escape the gridlock. Four levels of play range from beginner to expert. Measures 9"W x 8"H x 2.5"D.

Client Critiques
My two children ages 8 and 7 like this, as do my husband and I. It really is excellent in making thinking abilities. The challenging cards are adequate to stump the adults, but the newbie cards are a amazing beginning point for the youngsters. A amazing game to take areas where you have to sit and wait for awhile. I very suggest it!
The concept is so straightforward it really is ingenious. Drive your car in a straight line. But if you have ever been in NY for the duration of rush hour, you know that's not at all times painless. I am of course referring to gridlock, that bane of city targeted traffic, when no vehicles can move. Properly in Rush Hour, you get to move around all the vehicles and trucks to clear a path for oneself. The game comes with a set of cards (readily stored in the plastic tray) that show exactly where to set up the automobiles. That takes a minute, but some of the puzzles take a extended time to resolve. They range from particularly easy to really tough. And Binary Arts sells added card sets so the entertaining under no circumstances ends! This game is sure to make a lot of children into civil engineers. As for durability, you could most likely throw this game out the window whilst driving on the highway, and it would be ok. Just far better hope it's not rush hour!
