The Meter is Running puts you behind the wheel of a struggling cab as you try to build a transportation empire from the ground up. Developed and published by Debt Driven Games for release in 2026, this management point & click simulation game challenges you to pick up passengers, navigate traffic, and keep your meter running efficiently. You start with a beat‑up sedan and a handful of fares in a low‑income district. As you earn money, you upgrade your vehicle, unlock new neighborhoods, and even hire other drivers to work for you. The latest version of the game introduces a dynamic weather and time system, with rush hour traffic, rain slowing speeds, and night shifts offering higher fares but increased risk of breakdowns.
