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.

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.

Honestly, I am impressed by the tactical gameplay that the game offers. I opened this game with zero expectations, but I completely finished it in two days. Basically, you and your AI partner have 18 different mission to complete, like defusing the bomb, hostage situations, securing a building and etc. You can customize your equipement and gun so you can have a different approach on the mission, like more stealth mode or rambo mode, which is very nice. The game dont look like it, but it is very tryhard because you pretty much die after getting hit 1-2 times It make you play slowly and tactical.This game is fun to play alone, but the AI partner is very dumb sometime so i recommend to play with someone in the coop campaign. I recommend this game for player who like tactictal games and coop games who need good communication. Police Stories is pretty much ''Ready or Not '' , but in a 2D version. Only down side is I think the game is little bit expensive for approximately 4-5h of campaign story, but still worth it don't worry and that the story is not interesting.

Police stories es un juego que recomiendo encarecidamente jugar con un amigo, jugar solo a este titulo es algo que no siento que cumpla muy bien, ya que, la I.A. de nuestro compañero no ayuda mucho es como jugar a FireBoy and WaterGirl solo, es extraño y le quita diversión al juego a mi parecer, su historia es bastante mediocre o es muy deducible, típica novela de policías estadounidenses, su final siento que deja disconforme misiones que no se enlazan muy bien entre si, pero por otra parte tenemos su jugabilidad que es muy buena, variedad en armas y diferentes gadgets que utilizaremos para poder avanzar y progresar de distintas manera en una operación, la dinámica de poder jugar junto a tu amigo y progresar juntos durante el juego le da mil puntos a este, se hace muy enriquecedor la experiencia cooperativa, la historia es corta pero dará bastante para jugar con tu amigo en especial si platinas el juego, te dará unas horas extra de entretención.

Świetny 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.

Es un juego muy divertido si se trata de amigos, es algo que difícilmente vas a superar en cuestión de gameplay, su OST y diseño simplemente es maravilloso que te hace quedar viciado.

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.

SummaryA 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.
