Features & Capabilities

Winner of the Apple Design Awards 2015, Does Not Commute is a strategic driving game from the award-winning makers of Smash Hit. It plays as a temporal paradox: you guide a growing parade of vehicles through a relaxed 1970s town that quickly spirals into traffic chaos. Plan ahead, time your movements, and avoid lateness as you drive hot dog trucks, sports cars, school buses, and more. Beyond the road, meet quirky characters and unravel their secrets—what world-changing experiment is the inventive Dr Charles Schneider hiding? The game is free to play and ad-free, with an optional one-time premium upgrade to continue from checkpoints, letting you keep your progress without redoing sections.

User Reviews

Does Not Commute is praised for its quirky, addictive time-loop driving concept and strong replay value, plus no ads and well-written storytelling. However, recurring complaints include save-progress issues, premium paywalls for checkpoints, limited level variety, occasional performance slowdowns after updates, and occasional control frustrations. Overall, a unique, well-made puzzle racer with charm and depth but notable content and accessibility concerns.

Pros

Addictive, time-loop driving concept that is fun and clever.
High replay value; players frequently return to beat levels and revisit the game.
No ads, with optional premium checkpoints; perceived good value.
Tight, responsive controls (mouse improves the experience).
Clever writing and quirky backstories that add personality to the game.

Cons

Progress saving issues; exiting or quitting can erase or fail to save progress.
Paywalls for checkpoints and premium features; some essential functionality behind a paywall.
Limited content; not enough levels or variety, leading to repetitive gameplay.
Occasional performance slowdowns after updates.
Control frustrations due to cars sometimes speeding or being hard to control.
