  • Summary: A fresh take on top-down shooters with an emphasis on tactics that forces you to make split second decisions. Neutralize criminals, rescue civilians and defuse bombs in Single Player mode or Co-op. And remember - shooting first is not an option.

    The story is forgettable because of its generic nature and the visuals aren’t incredible, but Police Stories is about the tactical gameplay and having to make those split-second decisions as a police officer would. You’ll have a newfound respect for your local law enforcement once you realize how life and death their jobs can be.

    Police Stories is more then a simple Hotline Miami copy-and-paste, and add some very interesting tactics options to the top-down shooter mechanics.

    Problems aside, Police Stories is fun. It’s not terribly long- the kind of game you could bust out in a weekend if you wanted to- but its bite-sized pieces and simple controls also make it a great game to digest at a more tempered pace.

    Overall, Police Stories is a game I give a hearty recommendation, all the heartier should you have a buddy cop to bring along. It strikes that same high-paced, repetitive problem solving note as Hotline Miami but in it’s own way. It’s more methodical, you have to stay on your toes. That can be stressful, but very rewarding when a level is completed and done smoothly.

    Świetny taktyczny shooter, w którym wcielamy się w policję i szturmujemy różne pomieszczenia na Steamie gra ma recenzje Bardzo Pozytywne, a jaŚwietny taktyczny shooter, w którym wcielamy się w policję i szturmujemy różne pomieszczenia na Steamie gra ma recenzje Bardzo Pozytywne, a ja jak najbardziej się z tym zgadzam. W grze tej jest dużo sprzętu typu: paralizator, tarcza z pistoletem, itd. Gameplay jest szybki i responsywny a gra ma pełne wsparcie dla kontrolerów, a także tryb kooperacji. Expand

    It's SWAT 3 made into a top down shooter. Lots of tactics, Door Kickers like graphics (with some changes and improvements here and there),It's SWAT 3 made into a top down shooter. Lots of tactics, Door Kickers like graphics (with some changes and improvements here and there), great to play.

    Cons:
    - a bit hard
    - AI partner is stupid and a chore to use
