About Canal Control: Ship Traffic
Tankers, container ships and cruise liners are lining up at both ends of your canal. Only one direction can move at a time, the tide is falling and a ship has just run aground. Canal Control is a ship traffic management game: you are the controller who keeps the waterway moving.
RUN THE TRAFFIC
- Open the canal toward the north or south port and dispatch ships one by one or as a whole convoy.
- Watch the tide: deep ships wait for high water, small ships can still go.
- Tugs, pilots and dredgers are limited: plan who goes when, and use the waiting lake so ships can pass each other.
- Five ship types with their own speed, draft and toll: tanker, container ship, cruise ship, yacht and patrol ship.
HANDLE THE INCIDENTS
Sandstorms, crosswinds, engine failures, grounded ships, oil spills, security alerts and holiday surges. Send rescue crews, assist repairs and use high tide to free a stuck ship. Waiting costs time, never money: emergency crews always finish the job.
GROW YOUR HARBOR
- Spend tolls on 12 investments: a second lane, a bigger waiting lake, tug and dredger fleets, radar, a warehouse, a harbor hotel, crew training and more.
- Fund maintenance to prevent some incidents before they happen.
- Earn your way from the Desert Canal to the Lock Canal and the Arctic Canal. Every canal is unlocked through play.
- Hire a shift supervisor to send routine ships while you are away and earn a limited night income.
A LIVING CANAL
Follow every ship through a 3D canal diorama with locks, a waiting lake and ice. A step-by-step guide shows you each action the first time. Choose Low, Medium or High graphics to suit your phone.
GOOD TO KNOW
- Single-player. No account needed. Your progress is saved on your device.
- The game contains ads and optional in-app purchases. Nothing in the game requires payment.
- Only Remove Ads and the packages that explicitly include it (Harbor Edition, Complete Harbor Collection) remove the ads shown between sessions. Other purchases do not remove ads.
- Rewarded videos are always optional. With ad removal, the same capped rewards are given without a video.
- Available in 10 languages.
If you like ship games, port tycoon games or traffic control puzzles, take the tower and clear the canal.
