Pure Dead GamingMay 20259.5/10The Precinct is one of my favourite games of 2025 so far. Having played the demo I was really looking forward to the full game, but Fallen Tree Games has delivered in a big way. 2025 has been an exceptional year for gaming so far, and this is another success story. A must buy.

ZTGDTerrence JohnsonMay 20258.5/10The moment-to-moment gameplay feels just like watching those cop shows from the 80’s; running perps down on foot, getting into crazy shootouts and exploding cars, even your partner telling you how close to retirement he is; everything about The Precinct is so deliciously 80’s and I thoroughly savored and enjoyed every moment of it.

The Nerd StashGiovanna De ItaMay 20259/10After so many years of games encouraging us to break the law, having one that lets us enforce it is fantastic. The Precinct makes me want to sweep out all the corruption in the city.

PCGamesNReid McCarterMay 20254/10The Precinct takes a welcomingly sober approach to videogame policing, focusing as much on the mundane as the action-filled aspects of the job. But this isn't enough to make enduring hours of its repetitive mission design and poor writing worthwhile.

COGconnectedJaz SagooMay 202555/100The Precinct ultimately fails to make walking the beat feel immersive or rewarding. Routine patrols quickly become repetitive, with minor offences dragging down the game’s pacing. Even the main story missions, while more substantial, are formulaic and add little excitement.
