What it is about
THE STORY You are the night-shift driver of an automated, steam-powered cab in a sprawling, neo-noir metropolis . The city is a labyrinth of perpetual rain, neon signs, and towering brass architecture . Tonight, your passengers aren't human—they are the discarded, sentient clockwork automatons of the upper districts, fleeing down to the low slums before they are caught and scrapped . You are their only hope for escape . THE CLOCKWORK TAXI is a low-prep, atmospheric journaling game meant to be played in a single, quiet sitting . You will pick up 5 passengers over the course of your shift . For each fare, you’ll flip a coin to see who climbs into your back seat .
