Neo Cab will have branching storylines as the different choices you make leads to different scenarios. Therefore, think carefully when talking with the passengers coming on your ride.

Survival element

While searching for information, you need to pick up passengers to not lose your job. The survival aspect of Neo Cab requires you to manage three distinct areas: star rating, cash and emotional health. Balance the three aspects for as long as you can to keep the job and to find your missing friend. As a narrative-driven title, every passenger will have their own story to discover. Carefully interact with them, make good choices to maintain your three main stats.

Art style

To fit the storyline of the future, the developers made an excellent choice choosing the cell-shaded, neon-soaked art style. Also, Chance Agency hired Obfusc - who previously worked on House of Cards and Monument Valley - to take care of the music. Therefore, from an artistic point of view, Neo Cab feels mesmerizing.
