Great variation on the Lunar Lander theme. Pick up people and drop them off on different pads while dealing with fuel and obstacles. Featured lots of levels and sampled speach. What makes Space Taxi so enjoyable is its attention to detail.

When you have a fare your landing better be smooth if you want a tip. The 'worlds' are varied, one for every hour in a day ranging from kind of believable cityscapes to surreal giant beanstalks and ping pong tables.

If you play all boards in a row there is a bonus world, although there is a cheat on the info page to get to the bonus right away [see easter egg revealed link] Favorite moment: running over a customer and instead of saying "Hey taxi!", he just said "Hey!"
