Crazy Taxi — pick up fares against the clock, free online

Crazy Taxi is a delivery game with a stopwatch strapped to it. Every fare adds seconds, every wrong turn takes them away, and the traffic does not care that you are in a hurry.

How to play

Drive to the passenger, then to the marker on their destination before the timer empties. Reaching a fare in time tops the clock back up and pays a tip.

Tips & tactics

01Read the destination arrow before you pull away, not at the first junction.
02Cutting through open ground beats following the road almost every time.
03Do not stop dead at the drop-off — roll into the marker and keep momentum for the next fare.
04Traffic is scenery until it isn't. Assume every parked car will pull out.

About Crazy Taxi

The loop is simple: collect a passenger, deliver them, get paid in cash and in seconds. Chain enough fares and a run stretches out well past the starting timer.

Because the city stays the same between runs, most of the skill is route memory rather than car control.

FAQ

How do I get more time?
Deliver fares. Each successful drop-off adds seconds to the clock, and faster deliveries add more.
Does the damage affect anything?
Crashes cost you speed and time rather than health — there is no wreck state, just a slower run.
Is there a map?
There is a directional arrow rather than a full map, so learning the city pays off.

Chaotic in the right way. The arrow points, you improvise.
