Digital ChumpsJulian BlytheApr 20178.5/10Sadly I didn't put much time into "Beat Cop". While the game is amazing in its detail and design, the game actually starts to feel like a job! I can attribute this mostly to my own taste and opinion. I can still appreciate some of the nuance this game offers. I think "Beat Cop" deserves an 8.5 for being strong enough to captivate anyone who craves good character development and witty dialogue.

Thumb CultureJohn TonksMar 20194/10Overall, I think Pixel Crow has put together a fun game that reminds me very much of the game Papers Please! In the way, it handles challenges and time management. Could it be better? Definitely, and it wouldn’t take that much to improve either. Remove some of the jokes and perhaps include a bit more of a variety of characters and don’t paste the cultural stereotyping on so thick.
