About this game

Interpret the law as you see fit in This Is the Police 2, sequel to the acclaimed noir drama This Is the Police! Run the sheriff’s department, manage your cops, investigate, interrogate, and incarcerate. Make tough decisions – and try to keep out of prison yourself! – in this story-driven mixture of adventure, strategy, and turn-based tactical combat.

Is it a simulation? A management game? A tactical challenge? A visual novel? A puzzle? It’s all of these, and more!

Dive into one-of-a-kind -story-driven experience.
Welcome to Sharpwood, a cold and harsh border town riven with violence, where no one is completely innocent. Smugglers, gangs, and screaming populists call this town their home. To maintain peace and order, the young sheriff Lilly Reed (Sarah Hamilton) will have to team up with fugitive criminal Jack Boyd (Jon St. John), and pray that her dangerous plan doesn’t spiral out of control.

Take charge of the Sheriff’s department.
Your subordinates aren’t just some resource; they are living people with their own strengths, weaknesses, fears, and prejudices – and you'll have to reckon with all of them in order to survive. Is one of your guys drinking too much? Or always coming up with excuses for not coming to work? Or does he refuse to follow orders? You’ll have to show a steady hand if you want to impose discipline on this department.

Engage in tactical combat.
During your most dangerous operations, the game will switch to turn-based combat. Gather a team of your finest cops. Carefully study the terrain, adapt your plans, stealthily approach your suspects and use non-lethal weapons and equipment – if the situation allows. True, sometimes gunfights are almost impossible to avoid, but be careful: This Is the Police 2 doesn’t have hit points. A single bullet can cost a cop their life.

Become a true detective.
Collect evidence, study case materials, interrogate suspects and send the criminals to court. And if the suspect was innocent? Perhaps it's time to find out if any Sharpwood judges can be bought.

The 12 year olds in these reviews couldn't wait 8min of an opening cutscene. The intro isn't that long and once you get beyond it the game is 80% gameplay with some normal length cutscenes between days. The gameplay is also quite extensive for a mobile game. The narrative style is very comic book and that's fine it works cleanly with the narrative tone. Don't be fooled by the troll reviews, this is game is very well made if you don't have the attention span of a Golden Retriever.

A bit different to the first game but I still liked it. I love XCOM so naturally the tactical missions are my kind of tea. Story is much weaker this time, a lot of twists made little sense. One gameplay criticism is the text font. Random throughout the game some sections use unreadable text font. A bit annoying in the game that's all about reading text.

Really enjoy the game overall besides one thing. During the assault missions almost every single one ive played ive had to restart the entire day because just by holding my phone normally the end turn button somehow manages to get pressed skipping half the available characters and it's just my luck its usually with someone standing two feet away from a criminal that turns around and shoots them dead. Idk if the button is overly sensitive or what but a way to at "un"press it would be nice.
