Mini Motorways - Patch
Hit the rocky roads with our first Canadian map!
Vancouver is a city near and dear to our hearts, as some of us have studied, worked, and travelled there in the past, and it’s always fun to work on a map with a bit of dino history.
We’re already hard at work on our next update, and it’s going to be a big one! While we tinker away behind the scenes, we hope you enjoy the B.C. coast as much as we have!
Mini Motorways - Patch
UPDATE: We've had reports of this build causing crashes on some devices, so we have uploaded the previous version of the game to Steam for those encountering issues.
We're working on a permanent fix, but in the meantime, if this update has impacted your game's functionality, you can do the following:
- Navigate to Mini Motorways in your Steam library, then right click on it and select Properties.
- From the Properties menu, open the tab labelled Betas.
- Enter in the password totallifesaver and you will gain access to a version of the game labelled previously-live.
- This will revert your game to the previous version.
Big thank you to all players who reported this so that we could start work on a fix straight away!

Mini Motorways goes north to Iceland in our Aurora Borealis Update!
Enjoy a gorgeous glacial palette in day mode or dive into the fantasy-like colour of the elusive polar lights, famously called the Aurora Borealis!
This update also includes a few under-the-hood fixes and general polish, as well as the much-requested feature of being able to access the options menu from the pause screen.
Thanks again for celebrating our massive Miniversary birthday with us. We’ve got exciting plans for Mini Motorways in 2024, and we can’t wait to share them with you in the new year!
We want to take a moment to acknowledge what is happening in the town of Grindavik, Iceland. Our team has been keeping up with the news regarding the area’s hundreds of earthquakes and the threat of volcanic eruption – tensions and fears we are familiar with ourselves in seismically active New Zealand.
Our hearts go out to all those affected. We understand the damage and disruption these events can have on people’s lives, and Iceland is in our thoughts right now. Anyone who knows the process of game development will know that an update such as this one is built long before release day; nevertheless, we’d like to dedicate this update to the Icelandic people. We have long admired your beautiful country, and we hope our latest update can celebrate your renowned capital with the world through the lens of Mini Motorways.

Celebrate 10 Years of Mini with the Miniversary Update!
We’re thrilled to commemorate 10 Years of Mini at Dinosaur Polo Club with a massive Miniversary Update across both Mini Metro and Mini Motorways!
New to Mini Motorways, we’ve brought over three of your favourite maps from Mini Metro: London, Mumbai, and the winner of our player-voted map competition, New York City! Our three new maps will add an additional piece to the Mini Motorways puzzle as you must plot your roads around their cities’ railway lines.
- From the East River to Central Park. Redesign the roads of New York City’s concrete jungle!
- Labelled as India’s own ‘City of Dreams’, how will you control the traffic in the bustling metropolis of Mumbai?
- Traverse the River Thames or recreate Trafalgar Square; London’s traffic is now in your hands in this brand-new map!
For the first time in Mini Motorways’ history, The Miniversary Update also introduces a brand-new building type: train stations. With careful planning and attention, you will need to keep up with the demands of these new challenges as you draw your roads around unique existing railroads in these three new maps. This update also features various improvements and bug fixes.
But that’s not all folks; why not cross the tracks to where it all began, as the Miniversary Update also introduces three crossover maps from Mini Motorways to Mini Metro. Now stopping in Tokyo, Lisbon and Warsaw, Mini Metro has never looked this colourful on its 10th Birthday! Capture your stylish Metro networks in-game with our new screenshot frames and GIF capture feature, too.
It has been an honour and a joy to celebrate the last 10 years of Mini with such an amazing community of players. No matter where you jumped on board, we hope you’ve enjoyed this decade long-journey with us! Who knows where our next destination might take us, but with you there, it’s made the trip well worth it!
Happy Birthday!
Three new maps coming soon to Mini Motorways!
In addition to tricky terrain and stylish colours, these maps will add a new layer of strategy to the Mini Motorways experience with a new building type: train stations! How will you navigate your traffic around these existing railroads and keep up with your growing city’s demands? New Daily and Weekly Challenges await, plus fresh achievements and all-new audio landscapes from Disasterpeace!
See you on 24th July PT for the biggest Mini birthday our studio has ever had!
