NIGHT TERMINAL CONTROL
Read the convoy order, route each queue, and keep the holding lane from locking up.
Only the first bus accepts passengers. A wrong color waits in the holding lane, in order. If that lane blocks before the active bus is filled, the terminal deadlocks.
Read the fixed departure order, expose the right passengers, and keep a limited first-in-first-out holding lane from locking the terminal.
Thirty night terminals are operating at capacity. Only the active bus can board passengers, while every other color must wait in the holding lane in the exact order dispatched.
Every decision is visible: the complete convoy, each queue, the active bus seats, and every occupied holding space. Failure comes from a route choice, not hidden traffic or a timer.
Only the front passenger of a queue can move. A matching passenger boards the active bus immediately.
A nonmatching passenger enters the holding lane. Its first passenger must be cleared before anyone behind it can board.
When the active bus fills, it departs and the next bus becomes active. Matching passengers at the front of the holding lane board automatically.
If the holding lane is full and no exposed passenger can complete the active route, the terminal deadlocks. Undo restores the exact prior state; Restart restores the authored terminal.
Terminal 1 teaches the flow. From Terminal 2 onward, wrong routes can create a real deadlock.
Later chapters add a fourth route, longer convoys, more queues, repeated bus colors, and a two-space holding lane instead of repeating the same three-bus layout.
The four routes use both color and letter codes. The fixed convoy, FIFO holding lane, deterministic queues, and verified solution path define one readable strategy puzzle on phone and desktop. The complete interface uses one centered logical layout with a 920-pixel maximum. Phone, landscape, and desktop views scale the same controls, hit areas, artwork, and game coordinates together instead of stretching individual pieces. Touch, mouse, and keyboard therefore act on the same legal state. The Main poster and Start Game action remain separate from Stage management, while Stage selection, Battle, dialogs, and Result keep their own bounded content and return path.
The game is a General-audience untimed strategy puzzle. It has no account, purchase, or public leaderboard. Local clears remain in this browser. You can play without creating an account. Progress is saved in local browser storage on the current browser profile, not in an online account or cross-device database. Clearing site data, using private browsing, changing browsers, or moving to another device can create a separate save or remove the existing one. Language, sound, and reduced-motion preferences follow the shared WeightPlay controls when the browser permits storage. No guide result is a medical, school, or professional assessment.
