Summary

Traffic on MSX (often just called Traffic) puts you in charge of a city’s intersection, where the only tool you have is the traffic‑light panel. By flipping red to green and vice‑versa you must keep the flow moving and avoid jams, all while the clock ticks faster with each level. The simple premise hides a surprisingly tight balancing act: a single mistimed change can send cars careening into each other, forcing you to start the round over. The MSX’s limited graphics give the lights a crisp, blocky look that feels oddly satisfying to manipulate. It’s a pure test of timing and foresight that still feels fresh despite its retro roots.
