Bahama Taxi is a board game released in 2012 for 2–4 players, 30–60 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Bartosz Sułkowski and its main mechanics are Area Movement, Point to Point Movement, and Simulation.
Players become taxi drivers in The Bahamas, where the most popular means of transport is a share taxi. They compete to collect the highest income by carrying passengers. Up to three passengers can be carried in a cab at one time, each with a different destination. Taxi driver is responsible for choosing the optimal route. Fares are based on a distance between pick-up and drop-off locations. The board shows city locations and their road connections. Locations are enumerated with the card symbols. Passengers are generated by drawing a pair of cards, that represent pick-up and drop-off location. Taxi cabs are pieces moved over the board.
Bahama Taxi supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Bahama Taxi is 30–60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Bahama Taxi for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Bahama Taxi has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
