"I’m sure the biggest question on Crazy Taxi fan’s minds is how well does Taxi Chaos scratch that very specific itch. I can happily report that it scratches it very, very well. The Arcade and Pro modes will give you the same rush you got out of Crazy Taxi, and the new Free roam mode will have you spending hours scouring the city for hidden collectibles. Of course, if you’re not a fan of hunting down collectibles, Taxi Chaos might lose it’s steam pretty quick. The visuals do the trick, with only a few minor hiccups. There are some occasional glitches here and there – this one time I hit a weird jump and ended up flying in the air as high as the tallest buildings – but they’re few and far between. The voicework gets repetitive real quick, but eventually I just learned to zone it out. I do wish they had some licensed tracks here, but I get music licensing can be pricey. While I’ve easily logged in a dozen or so hours into Taxi Chaos, I’m still itching to get back into Free roam to find every last collectible. I truly hope the team at Team6 Game Studios are hard at work at some DLC, because I would love more content."

About

You play a taxi driver zipping through surreal obstacle-filled environments. The goal is simple, pick up passengers at one landing pad and drop them off at another before time runs out. Controls are tight and responsive letting you weave through floating platforms dodging hazards like rogue drones and collapsing terrain. The game’s arcade roots shine through in its fast pace and retro visuals. It runs on PC Linux and Mac with single-player action that’s all about quick reflexes and precise timing. Spaß Taxi leans into its chaotic charm with minimal story and maximum weirdness. Each level throws in new wacky obstacles that keep things fresh even as the core mechanic stays straightforward. The lack of narrative means you’re free to focus on the thrill of the ride, literally. It’s a short but punchy experience best played in quick bursts. The game’s cult following praises its simplicity and replay value making it a hidden gem for anyone who misses old-school arcade thrills with a modern twist.
