Very nice game with easy to learn controls, very satisfying graphics and a pretty immersive story but the friendly AI is just plain stupid. When you put him in passive mode he does absolutely nothing to help you, he doesn't fire unless you fire first and if there is an enemy behind you and you haven't seen him but he has again he doesn't fire at him leaving you open to blind attacks. When you put him in active mode he straight up sprints towards the enemy resulting to him getting killed constantly either from the enemy or because he ran into your line of fire. I recommend this game but only if you plan on playing co op with a friend otherwise it gets annoying pretty fast.

Imagine if you will... Hotline miami but slightly slower and instead of a psycho you play as a police officer. Its very fun and also includes a co-op mode if you have a buddy to play it with. Overall its a solid 8/10

If there's ever a second game, I'll definitely pick it up, but that price better change cause $25 is insane (5-10 is perfect); glad I got it on sale :) I mainly play on my SteamDeck, and I gotta say the AI can be ridiculously quick at times; some balancing is definitely needed. On PC, I can match the AI's insane reaction time, but I think the developers did that on purpose, as suspects can be unpredictable. I think they should've gone with a different approach, where some suspects shoot on sight, and some actually have a conscience. I wasn't following it, but the story seemed cool. I loved the whole 80's vibe, but I definitely would've paid more attention if they had VAs (voice actors). I guess they were on a budget. I know I sound like I'm complaining, but I truly enjoyed this game. I wish it was in early access so these issues could be fixed, but I'm pretty sure the devs have moved on, though I can't complain since I snagged this for $3. If there's ever a second instalment with a polished UI, AI, and gameplay, I'll definitely pick it up. I wish my brother or friends would pick this up cause I hate ordering around my AI partner, but bro is clutch sometimes.

Police Stories ”Tactical Top Down Shooter” A fun tactical top down shooter that is fairly brutal to learn at the start. In the beginning you will die a lot as its very realistic in terms of being shot, you have maybe 1 or 2 shots and you're done. Great AI partner if you use him correctly. Good little story and characters. Co-op play mode is available too. Plenty of weapons and non lethal gadgets. The goal is arrest rather than kill for maximum points and make sure you have a reason to shoot if you need too. Trail-Dave ”I'll be at your place in a few – just make sure to put on your cleanest uniform and maybe take a shower. You've been staying home for days, bet you smell like garbage right now“
