Public Tricycle Rickshaw Driver

Pedal a passenger rickshaw along long highway routes, holding your line among much faster traffic.

Difficulty: Easy to moderate
Compatibility: See device support below

Game overview

Public Tricycle Rickshaw Driver swaps the engine for pedals and the difference shows in every level. The rickshaw builds speed slowly, carries passengers who notice how you take a corner, and has to hold its line on long highway runs alongside far faster traffic. Levels get tougher as the routes lengthen, so the game rewards steady riding and reading the road well ahead rather than any turn of pace.

This title is best suited to players who enjoy calm driving simulation with a slower vehicle.
