Ahoy there me lads and lasses! Yer favorite friendly app pirate is back with another dose of app review. ‘Afore hopping in the ship and living the life of full pledged pirate, this old salt enjoyed driving in land. Aye, I can drive any kind of vehicle, from motorcycle to trucks! ‘Tis why this bucko is also into driving games. Our app review for today is about the game called Taxi Game by Baklabs. Batten down the hatches and let’s begin with the review.
Easy Controls
The controls are conveniently located on the lower left and lower right of the game screen so you can still focus on the screen without your fingers getting in the way. It may take a few games to get used to the controls but they are not that difficult to familiarize with. The left and right arrow are on the lower left, while the break, and the forward and backward options are on the lower right. The controls work smoothly in general so you shouldn’t have trouble driving the taxi.
Big City to Explore
There is a big city to drive around so you can keep playing for a long time or as much as you want. While there are various buildings, most of them look the same so it’s just like you are seeing the same places. There are areas that have other settings, such as the seaside, but like the buildings, there’s not much variety on what you see. The game is in 3D, but the images are not realistic. It would have been more enjoyable if the background or setting is detailed and realistic so you will feel like you are really driving around a city.
Not Much Traffic
There is not much traffic, especially on the first part of the game so it will not really test your driving skills, at least in a game. The roads are narrow so having a car next to you would also be a challenge. You don’t want to bump on it or hit any other cars or people.
Average Graphics
As mentioned, the graphics are in 3D but they are not detailed or realistic. They are average, so you can determine what they are, although they do not look real. Even the movement of the people are not realistic.
Too Many Advertisements
Taxi Game is a free game that you can download without spending anything. However, one of the drawbacks of this game is that it has too many advertisements. Sometimes, an advertisement will pop-up while playing the game and you will be forced to finish the video before you can continue with the game.
The Good
It’s a free game that is easy to learn. The controls are smooth so you won’t have any trouble driving the taxi around. The city is big, allowing you to explore more and play more.
The Bad
There are too many advertisements that can affect the game as there are those that just pop-up while in the middle of playing. The graphics are not realistic.
The Verdict
Although this game has drawbacks like its unrealistic graphics and many advertisements, it’s free to play and it has a huge city setting that lets you play more. You may still want to try it, especially if you are into driving games.
