Taxistanbul: Istanbul Taxi Simulator

The city is real. The debt is real. The taxi is yours. Almost. Taxistanbul puts you behind the wheel of an Istanbul yellow cab in the city's most iconic district: the historic peninsula. This isn't a generic backdrop. Bridges, mosques and monuments stand where they actually stand, and the streets connect the way they really do. If you know Istanbul, you'll find your way. If you don't, you'll learn it like a real cabbie: one fare at a time. Live the real taxi economy. In Istanbul, most drivers don't own their plate, and neither do you. Every day starts in the red: pay your daily rent to the plate owner, keep the tank full, the car clean and repaired, and settle your traffic fines. Whatever is left is yours. And you're not alone on these streets. Every fare you miss is another cab's payday.
