Siren City is one of the roughest towns in the whole of the U.S.A. Starting as a rookie driving through a maze of Skyscrapers and seemingly peaceful streets your job is to keep law & order but you are dealing with some of the toughest criminals not behind bars. These include Public Enemy No1 : Slit-Throat Steve, Public Enemy No 7 : Dune Buggy Jon and Dr J. Davies Ph.D, V.E.A.S.[2]

Gameplay

The game action is displayed via an aerial view of the city centered on the player's "Cop Car". The player undertakes a number of missions, ending after either a set objective achieved or a fixed time duration. These missions include:

  • patrolling the city (very easy)
  • chasing down criminals in dragsters
  • neutralising a cloud of chemical smog
  • evading aggressive pursuit by a rogue armed helicopter (very difficult)

The game is distinguished by a large and detailed city map, including high-rise, difficult-to-navigate suburbs and a working railway line.
