Same goes for Campaign Mode- once you beat each story, there really isn’t any reason to go back to it. Once you have all the elements created and the City is full, there’s nothing left to do. Sure, Citizen + Justice = Policeman makes sense, but how does Policeman + Thief = Water? It’s really hit or miss.Īs for the replay value, there really is none. Also, I should mention that some of the combinations really make no sense. I can barely tell you what any of the Campaigns were about, and I just finished the game recently! Fun Factor and Replay ValueĪs I said, combining elements just isn’t that fun! Just clicking and clicking gets old when your reward is so small. Crime City is not exactly a text adventure either, so combining elements does little to keep you entertained. In Campaign Mode, you never see the action- you just read a little blurb on the screen telling you what happened. In City Mode, elements are plopped down on the screen and do not move. I was vaguely interested in what some combinations would produce, but the formula gets stale very quickly, especially when the game itself is not dynamic at all. GameplayĪs I mentioned before, the whole point of Crime City is to combine different elements together to make more elements! The problem is, this just isn’t much fun. There is an annoying police siren that wails every few seconds, which got on my nerves and caused me to turn the volume down for the rest of the game. The sounds in this game are pretty sparse. Maybe they were trying to just fit as much as they possibly could on the screen, but it just looked strange. I unlocked a limo, then a man lifting weights, and when they were placed side by side, the man was way bigger than the limo! I mean, the limo looked like a toy car. Also (and maybe this is just because I have a background in graphic design and I’m picky) the proportions of some elements were way off. The graphics are colorful, but I did not care for the way the characters looked. Unfortunately, that feeling stayed with me the entire time I was playing the game. I’ll admit, when I was downloaded the game onto my Switch, I was not a huge fan of the icon on my screen. There are a few different scenarios to play through, though unfortunately none of them are very interesting. In Campaign Mode, you are once again combining elements, but there is more of a “story” to what you are doing. Your city starts off pretty bare, but as you keep combining elements, your city will slowly fill up with all sorts of crime related goodies, such as the Mafia, bank robbers, and a drunk guy crawling out of a bar! Some elements are downright bizarre, such as a tiger in a cage and a random man lifting weights. In City Mode, you combine random elements together to make… well, stuff. There are two main modes in Crime City: City and Campaign. But enough of my babbling, let’s get to the review! Story I’m unfamiliar with these games, so I went into the game not knowing what to expect. Sounds interesting, right? And apparently there are other Doodle God games, including Doodle God and Doodle Devil. Can you successfully rob the bank and escape the Cops? Are you tough enough to defeat the rival boss and be the Crime Big Boss of the City? We shall see how good you are… In the “Campaign” mode, nab the bad guys or pull off heists to build your fortune. But you gotta watch your back because behind every corner there is a good Cop trying to make a name for himself or a rival Gangster trying to take your turf! In the “City” mode watch your Crime City come alive as you successfully pull off heists, escape the Cops or beat-off rival gangs. You decide how you want to play as you play through multiple hard-nosed storylines & play modes.Īs you build your Gang and make your fortune you must evade the Cops as well as fight off rival games in order to become the “Big Boss” of the City. Over 500 puzzles to solve and items to create as you play the role of Crime Boss or Cop. WATCH YOUR CRIME CITY COME ALIVE AS YOU PLAY!
