I used to play this a lot on my Dreamcast
As someone who played the original back on my Dreamcast, this is indeed a faithful port, visually and controls wise (worked with my Voyee controller), except I can’t get the speed boost to work (it claims I’m supposed to double tap and hold the drive gear instead of the old way it used to be done with switching quickly into reverse and back, but I still can’t get this to work). Other annoyances are the announcer voice over doesn’t play, the character voices in game seem broken, and the music sometimes stops during game and doesn’t begin the next song. (I will say I’m really glad hearing the original music though.). Yea it’s not perfect but it also is free. Thanks for making this port!

One of SEGA’s Best Mobile Releases to Date
When I got Ristar’s SEGA Forever mobile port last year, gameplay was slow, the saving system sucked, and the ads were unbearable. Now with Crazy Taxi, I see SEGA Forever has improved greatly. The game doesn’t lag a bit, not sure about saving but I’m guessing it’s improved, and, thank Yuji Naka, you don’t get an ad each time you touch the screen. Aside from SF’s improvements, the game itself is great and fun to play. You get to choose the difficulty of your next job, the music is great (of course it is, it’s SEGA), and it has a ‘90s charm to it. I may not have been alive when this came out, but still, it feels like I’m playing GTA San Andreas but better (and not nearly as gory). Overall, 5 Stars, and I didn’t even rate it that to get featured, honest. Now I’m just waiting for the Sonic 3 & Knuckles mobile port by Taxman and Stealth. Yeah, that’s right SEGA. People still want that.

Pretty good!
Not bad SEGA, not bad. Pretty nice game. The controls are responsive to me, the game Is fun to drive around, but there’s one little Issue I kind of experienced while playing the game. The cars that you crash into or get in your way, doesn’t move out of your way. I don’t know If it’s intentional or a glitch but It’s kind of annoying depending on where your going. Also sometimes when your almost out of time, certain npcs will make you go places that are like 523 miles away from you, and you are 9.00 seconds away from stopping. They even make it 30 seconds to get over there before they change their mind. But I guess I wasn’t fast enough. (What she said) But great game indeed SEGA.

Great game with one exception
I would actually give this game a 5-star review. But I have about 10 achievements that I’ve accomplished but can’t collect the diamonds. When I open the achievements tab, there’s nothing there. I can’t see any of them. SEGA, if you read this, please push out a bug fix or whatever needs to be done so I can get my diamonds! Lol Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, this really is a great game. It’s a lot of fun and really easy to use. Cool upgrades and customizations you can make to your vehicles. I just wish I didn’t have to wait so long for my gas tank to refill so I can keep racing...and yes, I’m that cheap that I won’t spend $10 to have unlimited gas lol. But you won’t be disappointed if you download this game. I really enjoy it.

perfectly fine for the most part
i've never played the original crazy taxi until i decided to get this. this game feels just about as good as i'd expect the original to be, with no issues about it at all apart from the fact that a handful of the sound effects don't load on launch (the announcer, the drivers, and the customers as far as i know). [[edit: and of course the fact that we HAVE to be online to play it is extremely dumb for several reasons, but i've been able to let that slide for the most part.]] apart from that, it's a solid port of the game, i really enjoy it.

Used to be a fun game
It took way too long to get into the app. I don’t know if it is any good anymore or not. I had not played it in a while so I clicked on the game. The first thing it did was ask for my iTunes password. No. Then it made me answer about 10 questions about how I wanted to play. Then, once I got past all of that, it slapped me in the face with a full screen ad before it would even let me see a single frame of game play. DELETE! I will now never know if the game is as good as the last time that I played it. It was fun before they got so ad happy (but not fun enough to deal with the frustrations of starting the app). It also doesn’t help that internet access is absolutely REQUIRED to play. Got this for my ipad that does not have cellular. If I am not at home I cannot play. It makes me wonder what kind of info that sega is secretly stashing away about me while I play. Thanks SEGA for ruining a good experience.

Improper formatting for IPhone 12
I LOVE crazy taxi, it’s one of my favorite games from you guys, and to see it on mobile for thousands to play warms my heart. But since I have upgraded my mobile device to an iPhone 12 Mini I have come to find that it is improperly upscaled, putting the touch controls at the absolute edge of the screen, making it very difficult to control your vehicle during heated gameplay. It runs great, looks amazing and sounds incredible (thank you so much for keeping the licensed songs in the mobile app!) but it just has some up scaling issues that you can easily remedy.

Great arcade game, one issue
I absolutely LOVE this game for how fast it is, it’s a great substitute for when I can’t play the arcade version. Now there’s just one small issue with the game and that’s the sound, instead of it coming out of the speakers it will come out of the ear piece of the phone. This makes the game quieter than it should be and to make things a bit worse, sometimes the sound will switch from speaker to ear piece. I hope that this can get fixed soon so that I can enjoy this game to its fullest.

Where’s the bug repairs
The game is buggier than when I complained about it in 2019. Now the brakes or drift don’t respond when you need them to. Instead of refining the bugs they should’ve just been repaired. The boost no longer functions, the drift only works if you’re in a corner now, It won’t respond when I’m just driving. I’ve noticed they changed the drift to double tap when in a certain direction but didn’t actually say that in the manual. The old controls were better because they were less complex. The game’s map was already complex so the control should’ve remained simple. That why I’m saying the bugs should be repaired not refined. You can’t refine something that isn’t functioning properly.

Wish it was the XBOX version.
This game is good. I just wish it was more like the XBOX version. I liked in that version how the driver could pick up more then one person at a time. And I also liked that there was more worlds to drive in. Still this is a good game. Please update this app. I just tried to open the app and got a message saying. This app may slow down your iOS device. The developer needs to update the app. I don't get this message on apps that were updated recently only apps that have not been updated in a while. Please remove adds. In 2015 when I found this game I had to pay to get the game. And for a while I’m getting adds with this game once and a while. And now the game won’t start. Please update the game.

INSANE
You absolutely have to use internet while playing, so you’ll get bombarded with ads. And the privacy policy is trash. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. They will collect so much of your data, read the privacy policy before accepting. Shame on you SEGA, you have enough money but you just need to grub more and more through this app by selling our information and feeding us endless ads. I was playing this game well before the update, deleted it when I was asked to allow my info to be collected, then just redownloaded it hoping that you came to your senses. Deleted. And fwiw, I would’ve just paid to use this app if it meant not dealing with this.

Feels Great on Touch and Controller
Have owned the iOS version since first release 10 years ago and it is continually fun to revisit the game every once in a while. Recent update has muted the voice lines from the game, resulting in a strange vibe. The soundtrack still shines through, especially since other re-releases omit it. Touch controls seemed to have changed a bit to account for newer screen dimension resulting in more frequent accidental turning.

Finally, a good mobile port from SEGA
When SEGA first started porting their classic games onto mobile they were riddled with imput lag and ads, ads everywhere! Naturally, I was a little skeptical of this one, but when I played it, oh man it felt good! There weren’t as many ads and imput lag was nonexistent, it was classic Crazy Taxi action from start to finish! It was a true Crazy Taxi experience, and I was very happy to play it. Good job SEGA, you made a good port on mobile for once.

Ads Ads Ads (Edit)
It's a fun app and really does do well to capture the essence of the arcade/Dreamcast classic. However I paid for the app to get ride of ads and they still pop up each time I start the app. It's very frustrating, especially because my young kids enjoy playing the game. -after the developer response I have become more okay with the adds. I thought all adds would disappear but now I know it was only the third party ads.

Paid to remove ads
The advertising is not fully removed after paying 2$ to have them removed. The advertisement isn’t super large. But it’s not what was promised. When you say that it removes ads. I expect ALL ads to be removed. Regardless of how big or small they may be. Not to mention it is self advertising for the company; SEGA. This is false advertising and is definitely open to a lawsuit. There was no fine print allowing personal ads. It was simply labeled. Pay 2$ to remove ads. Which the generalization of this is ALL ads…

Oh ,The Nostalgia!
This game takes me back. I had in on Dreamcast and then years later played the Xbox 360 version (but that version didn’t have the original songs). This mobile version has all the original songs. Love it! The only thing that isn’t great about the mobile version is you can’t really drift because of the controls on the screen. Or at least I haven’t mastered it yet.

Fantastic but SOUND PROBLEM
Used to play this game on the Dreamcast for hours and I love that it’s now available for iPhone! There is a problem with the sound however. Even on the loudest setting, the sound comes out of the earpiece instead of the speaker. The ads come through the speaker, but not the game. It makes it super quiet to listen to. Even when you put in headphones, it still comes to the earpiece. Can you fix this?

Game doesn’t even open
I LOVED playing this when i was a kid, now I downloaded this game and i even paid for the adds off version of the game and every time i open the game.. i see the sega logo and then it kicks me out to the main screen of my phone, you can’t even lower down the music just turn it off, you can barely hear the voice actors, and i dont think they’re gonna update it at this point, but i want a refound cause it doesn’t open, sound from voice actors are TOO LOW that you can’t even hear them, its just a disappointment and i was a big fan of this game.

Fun game but app is glitchy
So I just tried playing it for the first time and all went well, then I completely closed the app for a few minutes and then reopened it to play again and it keeps giving me an error or something saying, “Age’s changed, please restart app”. And the only way I’ve figured out how to fix it is to delete the app and re-download it. It only starts glitching out after I try opening a second time. I’ll download the app, open it and play, close the app, reopen it, then it won’t work again until I delete it

Love it!
I used to play this game non stop as a kid on my sega Dreamcast! I’m stoked to see a mobile version! My only request is because it is so frustrating beating the crazy box last challenge to complete the arcade map in 4 minutes the prize should be a big truck with a giant plow on the front to ram through all the traffic! Just a thought! I would also love to see crazy taxi 2 on here!

A classic
I’ve been playing this game for almost eight years. It was a game I grew up with and enjoyed. Unfortunately, a really annoying part of it is the adds. They pop up and are sooooo annoying. I want Sega to fix this. Other than that, it’s a really fun game and it’s not too complicated. Games such as this, “Subway Surfers”, “Geometry Dash” And “Minecraft” are the games that my brother and I grew up and still continue to play sometimes.

2 things
This game is perfect the way it is. But only 2 things I wish I could move the control stick I just hate pressing the button and I wish I could move the camera! I’m gonna give it 5 stars because I love crazy taxi every time I’m playing with my dad and he wants to take a nap I’ll play around of crazy taxi and after it’s done I’ll wake him up!

Mid-game ads, really!?
I love this game. I’ve loved it since it first came out on the Dreamcast. I’ve had this months now on my phone and I’ve been quite happy with it. Today though, I was in the middle of a game and it just stops my gameplay to show me an unskippable ad! This is a time-sensitive game so it’s pretty F’ed up that I would be interrupted for an ad that then returns me to my game without even the decency to at least pause and return me to the menu—no, it just spit me back into the game with the timer still rolling! Unacceptable, I’m cool with ads but not like this. Uninstalled.

Needs iOS 13
I see other people being able to play with their iOS 13 update and are able to play on their ps4 or xbox controller, but I’m not! I connect my controller through Bluetooth to my iPhone and go into the app. Instead of it saying press A to start it still says tap the screen.. I really hope you reach out to me so I can be able to play like I want to! Thanks.

It’s Flawed But Still a Classic
The lack of voiceover really bugs me but it shouldn’t stop anyone from enjoying the game. I think my favorite part is that they forgot to censor Way Down The Line and there’s a lot of swearing in that song. The soundtrack has always been one of my favorite parts of this game.

Keeps randomly pausing
I’m playing on a new iPhone XR running IOS 12.1.2 and every 10 seconds or so the pause menu comes up as if I reached over and paused the game...resulting in it being near unplayable. The reason I’m giving this 3 stars instead of 1 is that apart from that bug, this is perfect. It looks great, otherwise runs great, and is exactly what I want in a mobile port. Fix the pause menu bug and it’s a 5-star game. Until then, not playing it.

FLAWLESS PORT RUINED BY UPDATES
I’ve been playing this version of the game way back when it was $4.99. Excellent port, great feel, quick load times. However, I did end up updating it recently and it’s much worse. When I click on the app, it’s almost 30 seconds of black screen before the SEGA logo comes up, and the sound is coming out of the ear speaker for some reason! Plus I get a lot of Sega ads as if it’s one of the SEGA Forever titles...I paid $4.99 long ago, yet there’s no option to restore the purchase to get rid of those ads. The game isn’t as smooth anymore, either. If I go to Crazy Drift, it hardly reads at all. I don’t get vibration feedback at Crazy Boosts anymore, either. Instead it vibrates at every little bump and jump. This used to be a 100% spot-on version of Crazy Taxi, but now it’s really annoying. What happened??

GREAT GAME, but.....
It only a little glitchy, and maybe you could add more modes. People say there is a sound problem but I don’t mind that. I think to start off you could add a little more time. I think you should add more maps just so we can explore a bit. Over all it’s a great game, just needs some fixes.

But I have a glitch problem that whenever I go to another app or to the home screen and return the app, it says “aged changed, restart app”. I have to literally delete the app and re-download again.

One of the reasons Dreamcast was awsome!
Fantastic game, except everytime Im done playing and I go to reopen, Im met with a message after the Sega Logo that says "age has changed, please restart". Ive had to delete and redownload the app 3 times now, and that just kind of kills my inner child. Love to keep this on my phone, but its kind of pointless when I have to delete it and redownload it just to play it for a few minutes here and there.

One of my favorite games from GameCube
Ruined by ads. Also, the game volume is too quiet and you can’t raise it above a 2 (what the heck?). The vibration mode should be updated to use the haptic vibration instead of the regular vibration motor, which is too coarse. The vibrations don’t even happen at the right times and lag, so you get them sometimes 10 seconds after you actually hit something.

Good game but needs UI adjustments when using controller
The UI never aligns with any of the buttons when using a controller so you have to get up and use touch screen when messing with the main menu which isn’t bad but the game also needs a constant internet connection and has ads everytime you start and stop. Sega trying to milk this game for more money and it’s obvious.

Mostly Great
I would like to give it 5 stars but with touch controls there’s no way to press the horn. Why not have the horn play when you press the middle area of the screen? That wouldn’t be too hard to add, right? It’s a minor thing but it would be cool! Overall it’s a very nice and smooth port though.

I literally could not play the game because of the ads
Every time I clicked on anything there would be a minute ad that wouldn’t let me exit until it was done. When it was over I would go back to the same screen. I’d click my option once again only to watch another add and it repeated until I gave up. I used to love this game but this is a joke. Don’t download the app. It’s a waste of space and time.
