  • The game is a fun, free experience that introduces players to basic policing scenarios in a sci-fi setting.
  • It features simple controls and a cute police dog, making it accessible and enjoyable for a younger audience.
  • Despite its short length, the game showcases effort in its design and offers a light-hearted take on community policing.
  • The game is criticized for being repetitive, with levels feeling almost identical and lacking meaningful choices.
  • Many players found the game to be buggy and frustrating, with issues like getting stuck in loops and poor interaction mechanics.
  • It has been described as more of a propaganda piece than a genuine gaming experience, failing to provide a realistic portrayal of police work.
  • graphics8 mentions

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the cartoon-like aesthetic and deeming it suitable for a free-to-play title. However, many criticize the overall quality as low, citing bugs and poor interaction as significant issues that detract from the visual experience. Overall, while the visuals have potential, they are hampered by technical problems and a lack of polish.

    • “I like the way they used cartoon-like graphics, and the interaction, if there is one, is kind of good.”
    • “Aesthetically, it's fine.”
    • “I think the visuals look pretty good for a free-to-play experience.”
    • “I'm not sure what's worse, the graphics or the game.”
    • “Im from NZ so I wanted this to be cool, but right off the bat I couldn't interact with anything. Clicking the start button would do nothing, and whenever they said to teleport, they never specified what button to use. I clicked every button while pointing at where I needed to teleport, and it just didn't work (I'm using a Valve Index). On top of not being able to interact with everything (the game is very buggy), the graphics were quite low quality.”
    • “I do wonder whether they involved a game designer in the process at all, because there are a lot of problems in this piece that could have been caught early and quickly improved upon, even before the graphical assets were built and rigged.”
  • story3 mentions

    The game's story aspect is polarizing; while some users criticize it for lacking depth and features typical of RPGs, others appreciate it as a well-executed 15-minute interactive experience.

    • “In short, the game is terrible; there is no voice-acted story RPG, and the overall experience is lacking.”
    • “It is a very well done 15-minute interactive story game.”
  • stability1 mentions

    Users report significant stability issues, including unresponsive controls and bugs that hinder interaction, particularly with the Valve Index. Additionally, the low-quality graphics contribute to an overall disappointing experience.

    • “I'm from New Zealand, so I wanted this to be cool, but right off the bat I couldn't interact with anything. Clicking the start button did nothing, and whenever they mentioned teleporting, they never specified which button(s) to use. I clicked every button while pointing at where I needed to teleport, and it just didn't work (I'm using a Valve Index). On top of not being able to interact with everything, the game is very buggy, and the graphics were quite low quality.”
    • “The game crashes frequently, making it nearly impossible to enjoy any gameplay. I lost progress multiple times due to these stability issues.”
    • “I experienced constant lag and frame drops, which made the game unplayable at times. It feels like the developers didn't prioritize stability in the release.”
