Ferries offer a whole new way to see the city in Mini Motorways in our latest update! A world-renowned city of film, food, culture, and history, Hong Kong is the latest addition to Mini Motorways, and with it comes a unique new building type!
An ode to the city’s famous Star Ferries, our new ferry terminals add another layer of complexity to the traffic puzzle. Operating in a similar way to train stations and trains, it’s your job to ensure these new floating obstacles don’t interrupt your traffic! Ferry terminals are new building types that will require careful planning and attention as you navigate ways across the water for your commuters.
The colour palette of our latest map is an homage to the city’s iconic neon signs, which spread across neighbourhoods like Jordan and Mong Kok, which peaked in the 1970s and 80s. Blending Eastern and Western iconography, they became a symbol of the city and a cultural artifact that locals are taking care to preserve and celebrate today.
As we were gearing up to celebrate the beauty of Hong Kong upon this update’s release, we were saddened to hear of the tragic high-rise fire in the Tai Po district. As such, we are pairing this update with a donation to the Tai Po Fire Emergency Appeal run by the Hong Kong Red Cross. To those who have lost a loved one, been displaced from their homes, or are otherwise impacted by this devastating incident, our hearts go out to you. Kia kaha from New Zealand.
And don’t forget, now that our new Creative Mode is out, you can explore Hong Kong your way. So grab a lemon tea and settle in to craft a masterpiece. Search for #MiniMotorways and follow @DinoPoloClub on Instagram, Bluesky, or Twitter to see what our crafty community is building!
