Game developer syncRage has released Taxi Drive New York for the iPhone and iPod touch. The game costs US$0.99 and is available at the Apple App Store.

Here’s how the game is described: “Make money as a taxi driver on the asphalt of the Big Apple. You must confront yourself with increasing traffic density and can earn additional lives and unlock licenses for new neighborhoods. Following the principle of the endless game, the player must confront increasing traffic density and can earn additional ‘lives’ (taxis) and unlock licenses for new neighborhoods. Thanks to the intuitive touch-control the game is immediately accessible.

‘Never before has it been so easy to find the target, simply tap the desired position on the map. But beware: The direct path from the calculated route may lead to a crash with another motorist. The denser the traffic gets, the more important and decisive are quick reactions and the choice of the right sub-route. Whomever quickly finds safe positions on the maps – areas not visited by other vehicles—is clearly in the advantage.”

syncRage says the game as a prelude to a taxi series, which will captivate the player with new maps, vehicles, and other challenges and rewards.
