Taxi City is a browser-based driving simulator about building a career as a city cab driver. Pick up customers through an in-game taxi app, navigate a sprawling urban environment and earn enough to cover vehicle costs. You can play directly in a browser without installing the game, making it easy to try on a compatible computer.
How Taxi City works
Your driver starts with a leased car and takes on fares to bring in money. Earnings can go toward lease payments, operating expenses and other costs, as well as improving the vehicle or working toward a more luxurious and faster car. The city features accommodations and tall buildings, but the roads are described as having no pedestrians, so the main focus is driving and responding to customer requests.
Before starting a shift, consider the lease difficulty and payment schedule. The higher difficulty options require larger payments over shorter periods, so they may call for more frequent and careful driving to keep up.
- Easy: $28 for 30 days
- Medium: $40 for 20 days
- Hard: $70 for 10 days
A practical approach is to learn the controls and get comfortable handling the car before choosing a more demanding payment schedule. Watch your direction and use the hint function if you need help navigating.
Vehicles and upgrades in Taxi City
The game currently offers three vehicles. Upgrades are available for the engine, tires and chassis, including suspension improvements. These options let you develop your current car rather than relying only on a vehicle change. Since the source information does not specify the exact effects or prices of each upgrade, check the in-game options before spending your earnings.
The game has a file size of 72 MB and is optimized to run on low-performance systems. Its backend supports achievements, leaderboards and saved user progress. Taxi City was developed by PacoGames, with backend services provided by GameArter.
Taxi City controls
Use the following keyboard controls to drive, manage customer requests and look around:
- WASD: Drive
- 1, 2, 3, 4: Use the mobile phone
- I: Ignition
- C: Change camera
- Space: Handbrake
- Y: Accept a customer
- N: Decline a customer
- H: Show a direction hint
- Q / E / R: Look left, right or behind
For easier control, try the camera shortcuts while stationary or moving slowly, and use the handbrake when you need to stop securely. Accept or decline fares with the listed keys, and use the direction hint when you are unsure where to go.
Is Taxi City worth trying?
Taxi City combines city driving, customer pickups, vehicle upkeep and a range of lease difficulties in a lightweight browser game. Its three-car selection and upgrade options provide goals beyond completing individual rides, while the controls are listed clearly for new players. If you enjoy driving simulators, Taxi City offers a straightforward way to test your navigation and fare-management skills without a separate installation.
