REVIEW: THIS IS THE POLICE
This is the police is a strategy-based adventure video game
developed by
Weappy Studio and it was published by EuroVideo Medien, It was released on August
2, 2016 for Microsoft, OS and Linux. You control the protagonist Jack Boyd (Jon St Jon: Who is one of the best
voice actors i’ve ever heard),who is being forced into early retirement by the
corrupt mayor, the game takes place during his final one hundred and eighty
days on the force. It is a real-time management
video game but the in-game countdown timer for the day progression doesn’t
count in real time as it speeds up to about (0.69 seconds per RT seconds) but the mission
pop-up icon timer countdown is in real time. Jack
Boyd, a police
chief in the game's location of Freeburg set to retire in one hundred and eighty days.
The gameplay is
presented on a bird’s eye view map (Like a 3d mini-map
of the city). He wants to make 500,000 dollars in
his final six months on the force, through various ways which he either chooses
utilizing the local mafia. The mafia may ask the Jack to turn a blind eye towards some of the crimes and be compensated with money
or not get killed instead. Jack
receives calls and is tasked to prioritize certain ones while dealing with the
members of your staff. Depending on how serious the incident happening is, the
amount of police sent which can range from 2 – 10 per mission. As
you go further into the game SWAT
Teams and reinforcements are unlocked for use. You must use strategy to decide how
many officers will be sent to each crime, because if there are no spare
officers, some crimes can't be stopped. Failure to stop crimes results in the
player's squad and pay being reduced. Source: Wikipedia.
