This review of Traffic Run! contains the following information:
Level 42
Traffic Run! requires players to navigate their chosen vehicle through a 3D maze of intersecting roads and railway crossings. Movement is achieved by pressing anywhere on the screen - making the vehicle accelerate forward (and releasing finger from the screen will stop the vehicle). Coins can be collected along the roadway which can be used to unlock other vehicles. The aim of the game is to get to the checkpoint without crashing.
This game has a lot of advertising: 2 constant banner ads from the home screen, pop-up clip ads between screens and rewards for watching ads. The clip ads were mostly for other games. The banner ads were often for adult related content such as business, tax and insurance – all of which take you out of the game when pressed. There is also a feature where you can use your coins to unlock cars – however, you can’t choose which car to unlock and therefore the use of coins may be at the player’s expense if they don’t get the one they were hoping for.
There is no In-App purchasing in this game.
There is no online information required to play this game.
The feature where you have to use your earned coins to unlock cars may be concerning to some parents as the process represents a "risk for reward" type of behaviour (as you can see the outline of the unlocked cars, but which one you get is randomized).
There is advertising in this game, including:
