Description: It’s the 1950s in a city like no other. You’re on duty as the local Traffic Cop smack dab in the middle of a busy intersection. Direct traffic, dodge flying food, & unlock bonus rounds to disintegrate aliens, and hunt birds!
Review: I have to admit ‘Traffic Cop’ isn’t quite as much fun as I had presumed it was going to be. You play the role of a traffic cop guiding traffic to the destination it wants to go. This can be a rather busy box-junction so of course, things do get crazy. There are also several mini-games to play to break things up a bit. Sadly the mini-games are utter trash which does leave the main game. First of all, the game takes a lot of getting used to and you need to do exact movement to make it work. This will often lead to frustration, but it is something that you can get used to given enough time. I just feel that the game’s controls were over-complicated and with VR’s vast amount of movement detection this game could have been a lot more fun. £6.19 isn’t a lot to ask for this game, but I do feel you will still be better off waiting for a sale rather than paying full-price.
