Night Taxi

Work a night shift in a taxi: drive through a Fare marker to pick someone up, through a Drop marker to set them down, and string the fares together across the city grid before the shift ends. Eight cities, each busier than the last.

How to play

  1. Drive with the arrow keys or the on-screen controls. Pass through a Fare marker to pick a passenger up, then through the next Drop marker to set them down. No need to stop for either.
  2. Keep going from fare to fare through the city blocks. The goal line says whether your next marker is a pick-up or a drop-off, and how many fares are left.
  3. After the last drop, return to the rank and stop inside it. You must finish before the shift timer reaches zero, and too much damage ends the shift early.

Tips and strategy

  • Plan the next two markers, not just the next one: the best line into one corner sets up the approach to the following one.
  • Corners are where time goes. A smooth curve through a crossing is faster than slowing right down and turning on the spot.
  • If you overshoot a Fare marker, do not reverse for it. Take the next turning and loop round the block.

FAQ

Do I earn tips?
Not as money. Finishing sooner and with less damage earns a higher score and more stars, which is the game's version of a good tip.
Is the city different every time?
Each level has its own fixed street layout and fare order, so you can learn a level and improve on it, and later levels are larger.
