Neo Cab has many great stories to tell, and plenty of questions about automation and labor.
Mojoverse Games Review: Neo Cab is a futuristic point-and-click game where you play as Lina, one of the only human cab drivers left in a world overcome by automation. The game is developed by Chance Agency and published by Fellow Traveller, and is available now on Steam, Apple Arcade, and the Nintendo Switch. I played Neo Cab on Steam and enjoyed the balance of choosing my dialogue options carefully so as to please my passengers, all while managing my character’s emotional health. Moreover, you can even choose which passengers (pax) you’d like to give a ride to and when!
GameCrate: " These days, video games are able to tell better stories than ever before. Studios with backing from major publishers are putting out compelling narrative games, with Life Is Strange and Heavy Rain being major standouts. Indie developers are also creating storytelling magic and are at the forefront of these narrative experiences. It often seems as if there are just as many action-packed indie games as there are story-driven titles. The smaller size of these teams means more personal stories can be told, which ultimately leads to more relatable, highly compelling tales.
But what makes the stories from these indie studios so compelling, exactly? Is it just because they're relatable? Is the scope of certain stories more engaging than others? It could be a mix of both, but speaking with Worse Than Death developer Benjamin Rivers and Neo Cab Creative Lead Patrick Ewing, it's apparent that there's more to creating these games and their stories than we may know."
Welcome to Los Ojos, the automated sci-fi city of the future. Controlled primarely by the mega-corporation Capra, follow Lina as she struggles to begin a fresh life in a Neo Cab.
