About Valet Parking Jam
The valet stand opens at seven and the lots are already full. Every car is boxed in by another, and the owner of the red one is waiting at the gate.
Slide cars along their lanes and drive them out of a packed lot. 320 lots in ten chapters, each with a known best line, plus a daily lot.
How to play Valet Parking Jam
Drag a car forward or back along its lane; it cannot turn. When nothing stands between a car and a gap in the kerb in its own row or column, drag it through the gap and it drives away. The goal is to free the red car with the star; from chapter 4 many lots have two or three starred cars, each with its own gap. Every lot has a best line, the fewest moves it can be solved in: match it for three stars, stay close for two. Each chapter adds one new thing: trucks that take three spaces, cones, one-way arrows on the ground, a police car that leaves only when its whole road out is clear, a barrier that lifts while another car stands on its yellow pad, oil that keeps a car rolling until it hits something, and big lots with buses. Undo is free and every lot gives three hints, each showing the next move of the best line. Solving 20 lots opens hard mode: no undo, no hints and a move limit.

Features
Slide cars, free the red one
Drag a car forward or back along its lane; when nothing blocks it from a gap in the kerb, drag it through and it drives away. From chapter 4, many lots have two or three starred cars, each with its own gap.
320 lots in ten chapters
Each chapter adds one new thing: trucks that take three spaces, cones, one-way arrows, a police car that needs a fully clear road, a barrier tied to a yellow pad, oil that keeps a car rolling, and big lots with buses.
Three stars per lot
Every lot has a known best line, the fewest moves it can be solved in: match it for three stars, stay close for two.
Free undo and three hints per lot
Each hint shows the next move of the best line, so you're never stuck without help.
Daily lot
A new lot every day, the same one for every player.
Hard mode
Solving 20 lots unlocks it: no undo, no hints and a move limit.
Tips
- Work backwards from the gap: find what blocks the red car's lane, then what blocks each of those cars.
- A car does not have to go far: moving a blocker one space is often enough, and it keeps room free for the next car.
- Trucks and buses cannot leave a lane they fill, so plan around them first.
- Before you drive onto oil or past a one-way arrow, check where the car will end up: those moves cannot be taken back without Undo.
- Park a car you do not need on the yellow pad early: the barrier stays up as long as it stays there.
