Developed by American Laser Games, Crime Patrol is a first-person shooter featuring full motion video to help immerse players in the action. Players choose their appropriate skill level ("Rookie" or "Captain") and then select from a number of crime locations, including an electronics store, drug lab, parking garage, strip club, and warehouse. Players will battle robbers, smugglers, and gang members as they point and shoot their weapon at the action on the screen while sparing injury to innocent bystanders. As players advance through the ranks the game's difficulty will increase as they join SWAT and ultimately the elite Delta Force squad.
