Overall, The Precinct is an enjoyable GTA-style police sandbox, featuring pulse-pounding car chases, comprehensive crime systems and a gritty city to explore. However, its ambition is often undermined by its small scale, repetitive gameplay and subpar story elements.
Chris Brandrick writing for overkill asks, what if GTA played by the rules? "The Precinct tries it — and well, I can’t believe I enjoyed issuing parking tickets either."
"The Precinct is an interesting mix of playstyles and routines to give some depth to its police procedural adventure."

NoobFeed editor Jay writes - The Precinct has the potential to be great as a view into the other side of things if you're a GTA fan, but that would all depend on whether you can look past some of the issues. It’s worth a play if you're ever curious to see what the cop life is like.
