    What This Is the Police is known for returns in the sequel, but its difficulty is so brutal that you may not even get to see all of it. The tactical missions definitely help to mix up the gameplay, but they take away from the more relaxed nature of the first title that we were expecting to be prominent here too. Fans of the original will find what they’re looking for – an engaging story and crime dealing management – but they’ll also have to put up with alarming difficulty spikes that can seriously hinder the experience if managed incorrectly.

    The sequel improves on the original in many ways thanks to more variation and turn based elements. Voice acting is decent enough. The amount of cut scenes and the long winded story detract from the actual content though and gameplay does get a bit repetitive in the long term. At its core a fine game but some odd choices hold the game back.

    This Is the Police 2 takes the first game and develops certain aspects whilst adding tactical battles to break up the daily routine. The story and presentation are strong but it falls into a similar gameplay loop to the first game, for better or worse.

    Wow this game was terrible. Not only is it bloated with pointless dialogue for majority of the beginning and bores you to death, but it’sWow this game was terrible. Not only is it bloated with pointless dialogue for majority of the beginning and bores you to death, but it’s ridiculously unfair. Tried to send one cop on a job and they said they will only go if they have backup and very high rated cop wouldn’t go with him because she decided to play cards instead????? What???? I could understand if it was a low rated cop but 500? Seriously? Game is a absolute joke, first one is not great but somehow better than this. This is not worth your time at all and after 3 hours I uninstalled. Full Review »

    Wierd, gloomy and grim storyline. The controls and content match. Only carried on playing to try and glean what goes on in some people's minds.
