Plus, kissin’ cops (that’s kinda clever)

Freeburg police chief Jack Boyd, voiced byDuke Nukem‘s Jon St. John, is 180 days away from a forced retirement inThis is the Police. After a career of being a Good Cop rather than a good ol’ boy, Boyd wants to use his office to make half a million dollars.

Looks like Freeburg’s a big town, so I’m not sure why Boyd’s salary is on the lower end for police chiefs — “Even with overtime, in six months he wouldn’t make fifty grand” — or why his retirement pay won’t cut it. Looks like he just wants his, belated or otherwise.

Regardless, I’m interested in the blend of strategy/simulation and choose-your-own-adventure story navigation.
