Games involving law enforcement
Law enforcement video games are the interactive equivalent of detective fiction TV series, offering players a chance to immerse themselves in the world of crime-solving and justice. It's no surprise that popular shows like Miami Vice and Hill Street Blues have inspired their own video game adaptations. This list includes games that feature police officers, SWAT teams, or even futuristic law enforcement agencies, reminiscent of the cyberpunk atmosphere in Blade Runner.
