Ever wanted to patrol the streets of New York with the city's finest? Well, here's your chance as you sign on at the Police Academy.

The course consists of four tests or semesters that can be completed at five different skill levels in which you must arrest the hoodlums causing trouble in the city. Arresting of course means gunning down although you do get penalised for shooting innocent bystanders.

The criminals or targets are the ones that are carrying guns and you must shoot them as they appear in the subway, steal things from the shelves of the supermarket, appear at the windows of a house in a shoot-out and finally are caught in your searchlight on night duty.

A police academy is an ideal setting for a computer game but surely more could have been made of such a strong theme instead of a shoot it, don't shoot it decision making of this game that isn't helped by its sub-standard blocky graphics.
