CrimeCity is out there for two weeks, and we are impressed from the feedback we got so far. Even though it’s still too early to tell, in the casual games’ arena, the game seems to behave very well and this could be an indication that the casual audience is now looking for gameplay originality, 3D looks and a more hard-core flavour - these are, we believe, CrimeCity’s stronger assets.

We don’t claim to be cutting edge gameplay innovators trying to do something that’s never been done before. What we do is more subtle - borrowing elements from genres we love and blending them together into something that’s fresh, yet also familiar. CrimeCity’s unique blend of casual action with strategy elements seem to have found an audience with casual gamers who appreciate a diversion from the norm.

The guys at EGCGAMES were kind enough to share their opinion on the game. Overall impression was positive:

“I found the game to be very interesting and amusing. Literally, you will try to stop playing, but you won’t want to. The 45 minutes demo will just pass so quickly, that you will want to buy it at once… On the other hand if you really want to buy the game, it’s available through the official website (a very nicely designed one) http://games.tetrahedron.gr/crimecity/home.html at the very nice price of ?13,5 or $19,99″

Do you feel the heat? CrimeCity is finally released to all major game sites across the globe.

Finally, Crime Chasing Doesn’t Get Much Spicier Than This!

We are proud to unveil Crime City, a brand-new crime chasing game for the Windows platform. The story involves around a big city filled with criminals. Crime in the city must be controlled and, should it get out of hand, be dealt with swiftly. Therefore, an elite police unit is created. This taskforce consists of Policemen in their cars trained in high speed pursuit and motorized urban tactics whose mission is to intervene rapidly and intercept any and all threats to the public before any harm be done. These policemen take their orders from YOU. You are the only line between order and anarchy. Take command of this elite police unit and let no one cross it.Crime City is a Fast Paced Point & Click Casual game in which speed and strategy are important. The rounds usually last no more than a few minutes each but there is a great deal of strategy buried in the game play.

This spring the winners will be players who love urban chasing bad guys - Mr. Michael Takakis, Sales Director, said. With Crime City we are opening the new product line that, as we believe, will be popular with anyone seeking Casual games with Real Time Strategy flavour. Crime City is not all about races and shooting, it’s an “urban hunting” game where players “hunt” for adventure on the city’s streets. This is an action-packed game with lots of challenges, realistic 3D graphics and ambient effects that will give players a good shot of adrenaline! Mr Michael Takakis continued.

And, it is finally out!
