Neo Cab is certainly strongly anti-corporate. I already agree with that, so I don’t know if Neo Cab has the power to change minds. But it does excel at capturing how messy things are becoming. How it can be difficult to know what the right thing to do even is. How some people have more breathing room to be ‘good’ than others.

Neo Cab leaves the illusion of having met someone, human beings in virtual disguise. Chance Agency has hit the spot, simulating that humanity that wanted to praise.

Neo Cab is a captivating exploration of a cyberpunk city, not including the pretty visuals and ambient synth soundtrack. However, its satellite stories gripped me and the core narrative feels like a detour.

Neo Cab does it's neo-noir thing, but you'll often feel more like a passenger than a driver.

Taking place mostly in your rideshare car, Neo Cab offers a fascinating premise through a small and memorable cast of city dwellers. It's not politically shy, and it has fascinating worldbuilding down to the mundane.

Neo Cab's malevolent tech-noir is a vehicle for exploring, and ultimately surviving, the tenacity of its passengers and the ambivalence of its driver. As a narrative adventure Neo Cab is full of conflicted, enigmatic, and sophisticated characters all vying for validation in a tortured world. As an opaque lens on social responsibility and morality, it's as distressing as it is compulsive. Neo Cab's tech-addled dystopia functions a travelogue to the pain and purpose of being human.

Neo Cab, a California cyberpunk backcountry investigation, features an intriguing storyline and neat storytelling with an intriguing tale of engaging stories that offer the feeling of sharing with Lina's passengers a real piece privacy. An atmospheric title, just like its synthetic music, in which the conversations with the clients of the VTC are as many elements to advance the plot but reveal themselves to be tracks given to the one who plays there to develop his own reflection on both personal and contemporary issues.

When it comes to cyberpunk stories/adventures who knew that the Switch would slowly end up with a collection of them of sorts? I suppose the neon-tinged visuals and semi-futuristic settings that are then possible allow for exploring slightly different narrative territory, and that’s something that Neo Cab does well...

One of the best narrative-based games of the year, that tackles a number of contemporary issues in an original and entertaining manner and whose main fault is merely a lack of budget.
