Description: 3064 A.D. Fresh out of “hibearnation” (aka unemployment), Starbear is a mammal on a mission: to deliver as many busy bears to their desired destinations as possible, avoiding pesky raccoon bandits along the way. Featuring a novel VR-native RC flight-control system, you gain precise control over your space taxi, with a custom aerodynamics model that allows your flight skills to shine. ‘Starbear: Taxi’ is a fresh new title from Funktronic Labs, developers of award-winning titles Cosmic Trip and Nova-111.




Review: To be honest its hard to put Starbear: Taxi into words. Its like crazy taxi crossed with Fly to Kuma! But yet…it’s so enjoyable playable its almost addictive! With its cutest, rich looking 3D graphics (especially with the ship you control flying around your head), cutesy sounds and alternative game modes its got it all and delivers it at a great asking price! While it does look like it was made for the little ones, this game is extremely challenging and will keep most ages amused for a few hours or more.

While I could pick holes in the high sensitivity of the controls I won’t because it makes the game that little bit more challenging, but not in an unplayable way. If you like to get your money’s worth Starbear: Taxi is one to add to your game library.
