This is the Police (PS4 - $7.49, XB1 - $7.81, Switch - $18.58) at Amazon.com

The xbox one version of This is the Police is also $5 at the microsoftstore.com w/free shipping.

Any opinions on this game? I've been delaying purchasing it for over a week now.

I have it on PC. I enjoy it. it's more of a niche game i think (and much more of a downloadable than something worth being a disc game) and it has a slow pace and can be a grind. it is a point and click, no direct action you control other than the choices you make.

It is a long game in that it takes 180 days (game days) to complete.

you play the police chief and you have to make it to retirement without getting fired by the mayor who hates you or getting killed by the mob and you have to raise $500,000 for retirement by any means you are willing to do.

you have 2 shifts of officers and detectives, you send them on calls (or don't) they have experience levels which get better or worse depending on their success or failure of each call. you have to manage moral, directives from city hall and such

if you like management games with a story interlaced and cop procedural shows on tv, this is it

Looks like it's creeping back up.  $8.09 for the ps4 version now.

I might be interested if it wasn't an add-on item.  Sucks that they literally won't let you buy it, even with other shipping options, without adding $25 worth of other stuff to your cart.  I get that shipping cheap items is too expensive, but the add-on program is annoying and has actually caused me to order things from other companies that I wanted to buy on Amazon.

 
I have it on PC and really enjoy it.  In a time where good management games are in short supply, it's definitely refreshing.  Police management, managing different shifts and whatnot.  There's a lot of unique events and things for each day you play so it never feels repetitive.  For that price, if you like management types of games, it's worth picking it up.
