Taxi 3 - Racing Classic

Taxi 3 for Game Boy Color is a licensed driving game based on the third film in the French Taxi comedy series. It was released in Europe in 2003, published by Wanadoo Edition, and developed by Duranik. This is an official commercial release for the Game Boy Color, not a hack or homebrew, and it fits the typical pattern of movie tie-ins of the era - aiming to capture the action and humor of the film in a handheld format.

In Taxi 3, you take control of the iconic white Peugeot 406 taxi, navigating through city streets to complete fare missions and outrun the police. The gameplay is seen from a top-down perspective, similar to many early driving games. You pick up passengers, race against time, and avoid obstacles and law enforcement. The core loop is straightforward: drive fast, stay on route, and deliver your passengers to the destination before the timer runs out. There are multiple levels with increasing difficulty and occasional boss-like chases.

For retro fans, Taxi 3 is a curious piece of the Game Boy Color library - a functional movie tie-in that's more fun than many but still shows its limitations. It isn't groundbreaking, but it offers solid driving action for short sessions. If you enjoy the Taxi movies or just like collecting European-only Game Boy Color games, this is worth a look. Just don't expect deep mechanics or replay value beyond the campaign.

How to play Taxi 3 online

Getting Started

Taxi 3 is a driving game where you control a taxi through city streets. When you start, you'll see a menu screen - since this is a French release, the menus are in French. Use the D-pad to navigate and X to confirm. Select "Nouvelle Partie" to begin a new game. You'll then be placed in a level where you must pick up a passenger and drive them to a destination marked on the map.

The core gameplay involves accelerating with the D-pad up and steering left or right. Your objective is to reach the drop-off point before time runs out while avoiding traffic and police. The police chase you if you drive recklessly or hit obstacles. Use the A and B buttons for actions like honking or special moves - check the brief in-game instructions. The game gives you a radar at the top of the screen to see your position and the destination.

A key tip: learn the level layouts to avoid dead ends. The timer is strict, so take the shortest routes even if it means scraping walls. If you crash too many times, the police will catch you and you'll lose. There's no continue system, so you have to restart from the beginning of the level. Practice each track to memorize the path and you'll progress through the game's seven stages.
