City taxi simulators: pick up and drop off
In these games you drive a yellow cab through a town, find the passenger, then find the drop-off point.
- City Taxi Driving Simulator has you follow checkpoints, pick up passengers and deliver them safely before time expires. Space is the handbrake, either Shift key is nitro and C changes the camera. Its controls note says touch controls remain available on mobile.
- Taxi Driver Simulator has a Work Mode of 80 levels, and you aim for 3 yellow stars on each to become an eligible taxi driver. You follow the blue direction indicators, and you can buy 9 more cars in the garage as you earn money. Free mode lets you drive farther and pay for fuel at gas stations. On a computer the arrow keys move you and other functions are on-screen buttons.
- Taxi Take me home takes passengers to their homes through a cozy town, following the marks on the map. You hear their stories, watch the condition of your car and, the description adds, eat a burrito at the gas station. WASD or the arrow keys steer, and G puts the car back on its wheels.
- City Taxi asks you to drop every passenger at the location shown on the map, over multiple levels. WASD drives, Space is the handbrake and Escape pauses.
- Miami Taxi Driver 3D lists more than 90 levels of picking up passengers in inner-city Miami and dropping them off, and asks you to avoid damaging your taxi.
Quick arcade fares
These keep the pick-up and drop-off idea but trim the rest: short runs, a clock and simple controls.
- Taxi Rush delivers clients across city streets while you avoid roadblocks and manage each passenger's demands. You upgrade and customize the taxi, and the description mentions a leaderboard. The left mouse button and W, A, D control the car.
- Pick Me Up casts you as a ride-share driver who picks up and drops off customers to earn money and level up. Tap and hold to drive and release to brake, and collect cash to get new cars.
- Taxi Time is a highway run where you collect all the stars and avoid straying off the track. It plays with a mouse click or a tap.
- Taxi Driver 3D takes customers to the destination they ask for to earn money. WASD moves and Space is nitro.
Other rides and a puzzle
- Tuk Tuk Auto Rikshaw puts you in an auto rickshaw. You pick up passengers at different locations, follow traffic rules, drop them off and earn new rickshaws. It plays with a click or a tap.
- Unblock Taxi is a car slide puzzle that its description compares to roll-and-unblock games. You play with the mouse.
Taxi parking games
Parking games keep the careful driving and drop the passengers. The space is marked, and these games watch the curbs and often the clock.
- Park The Taxi asks you to park in marked spots. Drive fast for three stars, but avoid other vehicles and keep on the street. Arrow keys or on-screen buttons drive.
- Park The Taxi 2 and Park The Taxi 3 put a yellow taxi into a marked space. Parking quickly earns more score points and achievements. Desktop uses the arrow keys or WASD, mobile uses on-screen buttons.
- Taxi Parking Challenge gives you a little time to find a place without damaging the cars next to you or running over curbs.
- Taxi Parking Challenge 2 gets harder with each level. You park in the marked rectangle within the time limit, and even a light touch of the curbs is not allowed.
- Taxi Parking Driving combines the two: pick up passengers, drive through busy streets and park the taxi at marked locations without hitting obstacles or traffic. WASD or the arrow keys drive.
More parking of every kind is in the parking games collection, in parking games tips and in car games online.
