It's an enjoyable game that wears out it's welcome
It's an enjoyable game that wears out it's welcome. Late into the game, the daily events start to get unfair (with a high number of false alarms) and boring. While the voice acting is top notch, the initial cutscene where you don't get to actually play the game takes well over an hour - a very strange choice on the game designer's part. They loved their own writing way too much.

This game is ridiculous
This game is ridiculous. So, you are telling me that in the Police you can refuse going on patrol or answering calls cause you dont like your partner? You can skip day after day on the job cause your uncle need meds? And to be a loyal cop your boss needs to say yes to whatever you ask him. If not, you are able to take some random free days cause, you know, you're mad at him. Please, teen developers. Thats massive ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Game is one enfuriating nonsense after another. Especially, if you are a Policeman and most of the year you spend between 180 to 350 hours per month on the work. This is a joke. Not the Police.

One of my best buys this year
If you buy the game it will take you two hours to get through a Xcom type turn based tutorial, an hour of various storylines to build up the characters, and an example of solving a crime lining up pictures in the correct sequence based on the clues provided. There is no play mode (easy, normal, hardcore) Starting out is rough and some of the officers wont work with each other, will call off, develop attitudes, and just plain wont work two days in a row. Bottom line you will fail calls due to lack of staff. Not every call you respond to is turn based, but rather assigning an officer to the appropriate response option and a success or fail result. Pro: Everything in the trailers is in the game. The voice acting is pretty good, and music is appropriate for the game. Lots of perks, equipment, stat assignments to your officers. CON: it would be nice to have an easier play mode starting out with more staff and money. Some of the calls should not require three officers to a public indecency taking most of your team out of service and then hit you with a kidnapping or bank robbery. You cant respond to a call without the minimum number of officers. Some of the balance issues could send you down a spiral of failure requiring a new start of the game. No save mode. Game is a day by day in game check point. Bottom line: You'll either love or hate this game. There is no middle ground. 8/10
