"Usually in video games players end up facing off against the cops or running from them in one way or another. It might be something as simple as racing away from a police cruiser in a racing game or shooting your way out of a bank robbery. Few titles actually place players in the role of the police themselves tend to either fall into racing games that see players acting almost the exact same as they would anyways or in a complete simulation that tries to hold players to the strictest possible rules.
Now here we have The Precinct from Fallen Tree Games, who originally developed a similar game that had players once again on the opposite side of the law, American Fugitive.Taking what they learned with their previous efforts and looking to create a police game that tries to blend the line between arcade action and simulation, have they been successful with The Precinct?

Fallen Tree Games' Lewis Boadle joined 80LV to discuss the making of The Precinct, sharing the inspirations and technical details behind its noir visuals, car chases, and sandbox crimes.
The Precinct has some issues like car controls and gun combat. It is still the best police simulator out there
It's pretty fun so far to me on PS5 it also has 4.75 rating from more than 500 players on ps5 if that count for anything
The Precinct is a chaotic cop sandbox with wild chases, repetitive tasks, and retro flair. It’s rough, but there’s fun in the mess.
