Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator

This Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator review will help you take a closer look into Barcelona's bustling streets and how we navigate the landscape as a new taxi driver in the city. From managing our cars, winning over the passengers, as well as dealing with the traffic, this simulation game has many things to help you sit back and relax.

While Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator is visually appealing, its lack of depth and shallow mechanics is a major disappointment.

Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator is a pretty addictive new addition to the genre, but it's giving us a rough ride at launch. It does the basics well for the most part, and features an impressively large and detailed version of Barcelona to cruise around in, but the unintelligent AI drivers, poor performance and various other irritations are significant drawbacks. This has all the potential to be a good (or even great) game, but it's going to take a few patches to get there.

Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator proves that not every occupation can become a worthwhile video game simulation. It's infested with bugs and soulless gameplay, making it more of a mundane taxi than a crazy one.

If you're looking for a deep, well-rounded driving simulator with a career mode, then Taxi Life is going to fall short on all accounts. There are a variety of similar titles available that do everything that Taxi Life offers and do so much more competently. Taxi Life can look pretty at times, but it's a big ask to overlook its many bugs and short-comings. Driving a taxi around a city isn't the most interesting idea to begin with, so Taxi Life needed to get all the details right, and unfortunately it doesn't come close to doing so.
