GabCab Review (PC)


Posted by Lucie Ornstova, 5 days ago

The goal of GabCab, from Reflexive Entertainment, is very simple, you are a small yellow taxi named Gabby and you must take all passengers in the city and take them everywhere they want to go. In each city you have different places like, the ZOO, stadium, movie theater, disco, etc… Your priority is to carry each passenger as fast as you can and as comfortable as you can. To make travel better you can turn on the radio or buy an ice cream for a pleasant wait. The thanks for your rapidity and kindness is the tip.

The tip also depends on the kind of passengers, some are richer than other. With these tips you can customize your car. Buy better seats (for more comfort), better motor (to be faster)…or a bigger fuel tank and that is really important because to drive your clients to their desired destinations in the best conditions you need to have always gas in your tank, if not you must fill up manually and it is too long , consequences include loss of customers or loss of tips.

The game will make you want to play again to improve your results in all 98 levels across 8 different cities and unlock the secret level and secondly, to receive enough tips to buy all of the potential upgrades and get the perfect taxi.

The graphics are not sophisticated and are lacking in elaborate animations but the people, buildings and Gabby look cool and make you smile with their faces and their voices. They look like the people in many children’s books however, the game is pretty fast so you don’t have enough time to examine the scenery during the race, but the menu could be more animated and more detailed .
