A hidden gem in my opinion, while the main story is a bit bland and repetitive at times the action itself and the variety of crimes that the game throws at you is genuinely fun to tackle, and judging that the developers are still periodically releasing updates for the game, it is worth giving it a try if upholding the law is something that interests you. Plus, the game itself looks gorgeous, Hope this review helps!
重生之我在美国抓违章
Juegazo , le seguia la pista desde que lo anunciaron y al salir lo jugue y lo disfrute muchisimo
Fun entertaining game with many different missions to take care of several emergency services, police, coroner, towing. I like the free roaming aspect of it, that you can play without any rush, that the missions are entertaining and varied so far. I strongly recommend the game
One of the best games I've played in a while, very well put together, reminds me of the GTA I, when it was a top down , graphics and interactions with the environment and spot on fun.. I can't wait to diff deeper..
This game gave me some awesome flashbacks to GTA1. It literally is a version of GTA1 I played, role playing as a cop. Pure perfection from the devs in that aspect. There are a few bugs here and there, vehicle handling and collision can be clunky as ♥♥♥♥ but it sure made those racing parts fun as hell, ramming opponents left and right. A sequel with a bigger budget is A MUST!
**"The Precinct"** ist eine gelungene Mischung aus Polizei-Simulation und Actionspiel, die mit ihrer stimmungsvollen 80er-Jahre-Atmosphäre sofort begeistert. Streifenfahrten, Verfolgungsjagden und das Abarbeiten unterschiedlichster Einsätze sorgen für viel Abwechslung und vermitteln das Gefühl, tatsächlich den Alltag eines Polizisten zu erleben. Die detailreiche Stadt, die dynamischen Ereignisse und das motivierende Gameplay machen das Spiel zu einem echten Geheimtipp für Fans des Genres. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
great game
Story is decent, takes about 12 hours to play through. The game allows you to continue playing after the story completes. There are a variety of jobs you can select for each shift, from foot patrol, driving a tow truck or ambulance, to flying a helicopter. Overall I enjoyed the game, worth picking up when under $20.
