Become chief of police for the city of Freemont. Hire and equip traffic cops, investigators, and SWAT officers. Shape the behavior of the entire police force by customizing department policy. Dispatch your police officers to crimes and watch as they carry out their duties based on the rules you set for them. Unlock special perks and tools to withstand crime waves, use spike strips to stop fleeing vehicles, deploy undercover agents to catch criminals in the act, and send out the police helicopter to spot trouble from afar. The city is alive with innocents and suspects who carry out their activities whether you see them or not. The world around you reacts to your choices, as the criminal ecosystem retreats in the face of swift justice or grows bolder in response to leniency. Protect and serve the public and you'll win their trust; but if you fail, they'll come to hate you and you might just get yourself fired. Key Features More than 30 crimes and events to dispatch your units to, including property crimes, violence and vice, noise complaints, and traffic violations. Department policy, skill filters, training, gear assignment, and customizable patrol routes allow you to manage law enforcement in any way you see fit.
