About Jurisdiction

✦ AI summary

Jurisdiction puts you in command of a police department where you hire officers, set policies, and dispatch them to handle crimes across the city of Freemont. Your decisions shape how your force operates and how the living, breathing city responds, with the criminal ecosystem either retreating or growing bolder based on whether you earn public trust or face their disdain.

Become chief of police for the city of Freemont. Hire and equip traffic cops, investigators, and SWAT officers. Shape the behavior of the entire police force by customizing department policy. Dispatch your police officers to crimes and watch as they carry out their duties based on the rules you set for them.

Unlock special perks and tools to withstand crime waves, use spike strips to stop fleeing vehicles, deploy undercover agents to catch criminals in the act, and send out the police helicopter to spot trouble from afar.

The city is alive with innocents and suspects who carry out their activities whether you see them or not. The world around you reacts to your choices, as the criminal ecosystem retreats in the face of swift justice or grows bolder in response to leniency. Protect and serve the public and you'll win their trust; but if you fail, they'll come to hate you and you might just get yourself fired.

Key Features
  • More than 30 crimes and events to dispatch your units to, including property crimes, violence and vice, noise complaints, and traffic violations.
  • Department policy, skill filters, training, gear assignment, and customizable patrol routes allow you to manage law enforcement in any way you see fit.
  • Play freely in an open-ended sandbox mode, or enable Challenges and work to fulfill specific objectives.
  • Opinion polls and newspapers provide feedback on your performance.
  • Gather intelligence by arresting suspects and connect with informants to expose crime throughout the city.
  • Intricate sound design that not only brings the big city to life but can also provide clues to hidden criminal activity.
  • Extensive tutorial and in-game manual.
  • Nearly an hour of original music.

✦ AI summary

Jurisdiction is a rare police dispatch and management game with an interesting concept and solid graphics that offers a unique experience for fans of the genre, but it suffers from significant bugs and balance issues including poorly implemented chase mechanics, overpowered suspects, and frequent calls that can become overwhelming. Players appreciate the core management gameplay and the developer's effort, though many feel the game needs substantial fixes and optimization to be truly worthwhile, with some recommending alternatives like 911/112 Operator or Police Tactics: Imperio instead.

I recommend this game if you like police dispatch type games and management. It takes time to experiment and learn all aspects of the game, it will keep you busy. I appreciate the graphics and time the developer(s) took to make this happen. Although it is completed (I think), it’s never too late for them to re-open it, tweak it up a bit, re-release it. (let me know if you do). One of my issues is that it takes a long time for training, too bad there isn’t an ‘upgrade’ button. I kind of wish it was a slower pace, it gets crazy during a crime wave, and can get overwhelming, but I give it a thumbs up, thanks developer! There are no police dispatch games out there like this one.

Its a neat concept but if you want and RTS police/dispatch game just get 911/112 Operator or the Emergency series of games. No hate to the developer just need to work on the UI bug and maybe make the calls less frequent and units skill/suspect skill not so under/over powered.

Quite some bugs and not optimized but the purpose of the game is very good ! Is one those rare games where there is actual police management
Not recommended Sep 1, 2024
The investigations are buggy, the car pursuits basically never end no matter how many officers are put on them and if they stop they one tap cops then die, this game is just sad and I actually wasted money on it.

I like the game quite a bit, but there's a glaring problem with being able to deal with fleeing suspects. Despite what the tutorial says, adding more units to a chase doesn't seem to do anything. I've had it happen plenty of times where I'll have over 7 units chasing the same person all over the city before they decide to escape outside the city limits, which in turn makes your "enforcement" rating take a hit. The poorly made chase mechanic alone is why I'm putting this as not recommended, and the fact that it hasn't been fixed in 3 years is a little concerning. You can put down spike strips if you manage to get a unit ahead of the chase, and helicopters can keep track of fleeing suspects though they can't help actually catch anyone, but you have to wait an entire in-game year to be given a choice to unlock them (there are numerous options, and you can only unlock one of these special options every in-game year). Edit: I literally just had a chase start near the city center and, out of curiosity, sicced about 25 units on them, many of them having pretty decent aim, strength, etc. stats and a helicopter to boot and they still got away. I don't know if I can bother playing this ga…

police tactics: imperio is still better than this. go buy that instead this is a waste of money no matter how you look at it.
