Bahama Taxi (2012)

About this game

Players become taxi drivers in The Bahamas, where the most popular means of transport is a share taxi. They compete to collect the highest income by carrying passengers. Up to three passengers can be carried in a cab at one time, each with a different destination. Taxi driver is responsible for choosing the optimal route. Fares are based on a distance between pick-up and drop-off locations. The board shows city locations and their road connections. Locations are enumerated with the card symbols. Passengers are generated by drawing a pair of cards, that represent pick-up and drop-off location. Taxi cabs are pieces moved over the board.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
