If you're up for an action packed driving game, then go head and this game will make your day.
In the fictional city of Ashland, crime is at a raise. As a newly recruited police officer, it is your job to protect innocent citizens who obey the law and put those who don't behind bars.
Being a cop in this city is not easy though, and a split second or wrong turn could be the difference between life and death. Therefore, you must complete the first four tutorial missions before you're finally allowed to leave the police academy and start patrolling the unfriendly streets of Ashland. Chasing criminals is self-explanatory. On the bottom of the screen are two colored bars. The red one represents the damage of the crook's car and the blue one represents their stress. If one of these bars goes up all the way, their car will stop and you can now bring them in.
You might notice fairly quickly that the gameplay is reminiscent of the Driver games. In fact it seems so reminiscent that you might wonder if this is what the Driver game would look like if Tanner hadn't been forced to go undercover. However, World's Scariest Police Chases has one feature the Driver hadn't: guns. Some criminals will not pull over nice and easy and may open fire at you. To deal with this while keeping your car clean, you have an arsenal of weapons such as a pistol, a shotgun and even a rocket launcher. These make the chases just as fast-paced as they are were in Driver. For some missions however, you're not allowed to open fire at the criminals. Then again, this gives the game some challenge forcing you to try a ramming them off the road or by giving chase until the blue meter goes up all the way.
World's Scariest Polices chases unfortunately suffer from a few things. The game's career mode consists of only 20 missions, making it somewhat short. The mission can also be a little repetitive, as most of them are just about chasing the same cars over and over again. Even so, this game is a good one and if you're up for an action packed driving game, then go head and this game will make your day.
