This is a very, very well thought out game.

For most of you, this is an addictive, story-driven police procedural which requires good intuition and tactics in order to keep crime in control and the City Hall off your back as you work your way to Jack Boyd's retirement.

The mechanics are easy to pick up, although figuring out tactics may require some learning (and some failing, dealing with City Hall will drive you nuts).

It is important to remind everyone that this is story-driven, and the story is pretty good, and well voice acted (Jon St-John, of Duke Nukem legend, is Boyd). A real gem is the soundtrack, almost all of it obscure jazz mined from Australia (Of all places).

This game is definitely worth an investment with addictive gameplay and excellent presentation to boot.

And finally, there are mountains of pop culture references for the keen eyed. I hired Vince Clortho as a detective, only to fire him when he turned up to work drunk.

10/10 would hire the Keymaster of Gozer again.
