The Great Herring Chase is a collaborative effort between Greg Wohlwend and Jiggmin, in which you play a detective who is trying to track down the head of a criminal organization. This will require catching his henchmen and interrogating them one at a time, so that they would cough up information that will lead you to the next suspect.

At the start of each scene both you and the informant will be in two separate vehicles. You won't be able to do any driving, but you can direct the cab driver to drive faster or make simple turns by typing in the commands as shown at the bottom part of the screen. (source)

Man, bad time to remember that I can't type very fast!
XD

Whew, I beat it! I liked this one a lot, even if I got tripped up a few times. Nice typing game.

Film noir + typing? Sold!

I love the visuals!

I kind of wish the directional sentences were a bit closer to the cars since I had to do a fair bit of looking up and down to check if the sentences had changed while keeping an eye on the tail lights of the car I was pursuing.
