The Taxi Pack is an acquired ability that Banjo obtains through instruction from Jamjars, located within the waterfall cave of Terrydactyland. This unique skill enhances Banjo’s carrying capacity by freeing up space in his blue backpack, which is typically occupied by Kazooie. The Taxi Pack enables Banjo to transport individuals in need, like Scrat the Styracosaurus children, and handle big objects like Superlife Batteries more efficiently. The Superlife Batteries serve as a vital power source for various equipment within the confines of the world Grunty Industries. Throughout the factory, four batteries can be located. However, these batteries are not passive enemies and will actively pursue Banjo with hostile intent unless he employs the Pack Whack move to temporarily immobilize them. To use the Taxi Pack, the Z button must be held while simultaneously pressing the C left button to grasp Banjo’s backpack. Once in this mode, pressing the B button allows him to pick up objects or individuals. Despite carrying a load, Banjo retains the ability to move, jump and engage in combat. To release the held object and reunite with Kazooie, he must again hold the Z button and press the C left button. Furthermore, it’s worth noting that the contained object will remain within the backpack until its intended destination is reached. However, should Banjo wish to discard the current item prematurely, he can do so by pressing the Z button followed by the B button. If left unattended for an extended period, the current item will automatically return to its original position. An intriguing aspect of the interaction with Jamjars is his notable omission of explicit button instructions unless the protagonists initiate another conversation with him.
