Duke Nukem is six months from retirement in This is the Police

Plus, kissin’ cops (that’s kinda clever)

Freeburg police chief Jack Boyd, voiced by Duke Nukem‘s Jon St. John, is 180 days away from a forced retirement in This is the Police. After a career of being a Good Cop rather than a good ol’ boy, Boyd wants to use his office to make half a million dollars.

Looks like Freeburg’s a big town, so I’m not sure why Boyd’s salary is on the lower end for police chiefs — “Even with overtime, in six months he wouldn’t make fifty grand” — or why his retirement pay won’t cut it. Looks like he just wants his, belated or otherwise.

Regardless, I’m interested in the blend of strategy/simulation and choose-your-own-adventure story navigation.
