### 3/5 — Tolles Spiel ABER

*2026-08-11*

Tolles Spiel für zwischendurch, doch die zusammenhängenden Prozesse passen nicht ganz zusammen. Das einzige Ziel ist eigentlich nur die Zellen auszubauen und genug Polizisten zu haben die diese füllen. (Das bringt mehr Geld) dafür reichen meist 2-4 Detektive aus. Man kann allerdings auch bis zu 10 oder sogar 20 Schreibtische bauen, was allerdings keinen Sinn macht außer für Quests. Auch ist es total Banane dass man extra „Praktikanten“ hat, die die Ordner ausschließlich vom Empfang zu den Detiven bringen ABER NICHT WEITER. Zum Teil laufen die Detektive 4x so weit bevor sie überhaupt ankommen. Die Polizisten laufen ebenfalls je nach dem welchen Grundriss extrem weit was einfach viel Zeit kostet.

### 4/5 — Prochaine ville ?

*2026-08-02*

Bonjour 
Pouvez-vous nous dire quand la prochaine ville sera disponible ? 
Merci

### 3/5 — Good app but….

*2026-07-22, version 1.28*

So it’s good, no ads unless you want the little bonus things, sadly this doesn’t work offline.

### 2/5 — I like it but…

*2026-07-17, version 1.28*

I like games like these. They are relaxing and fun without being hectic or heavily time consuming. My only problem is when starting off on building the first police station, it is taking forever to get things (money) to upgrade the different aspects of my station. I really wish the price of each upgrade was lowered or the amount earned for things/cases was increased significantly. I feel the first station should not be this time consuming or hard to upgrade things. I feel it should not get harder until the second or third station. I’d love to give this game more stars if this ever got fixed.

### 3/5 — Game has been abandoned

*2026-06-06, version 1.28*

It’s been two years or more and no updates.  Which is too bad, it was a fun game.  But I have seen this with a lot of the developers games.

### 4/5 — No adds

*2026-04-25, version 1.28*

I really like the game but can you add something were you could buy no adds

### 2/5 — Review of game

*2026-03-21, version 1.28*

Very fun game, but way to many ads, can’t do anything without an ad,  wry sad

### 3/5 — なかなか新作が公開されない😭

*2026-03-21*

楽しいけど！
イベントばかりでなかなか新作が公開されません🥲待ってます🥲何故かイベントである程度クリアしてから開始になっているのが残念です
開いたら取り調べ以外はクリアしてるようになってます

### 3/5 — バグ

*2026-02-25*

鑑識課の机が初めから4つ置いてあって追加できず検挙出来ない

### 2/5 — Idle antithesis

*2026-02-19, version 1.28*

This may be the only idle game I’ve ever seen where upgrades cause you to earn less money. It doesn’t really make sense. 

It’s also incredibly slow. Feels like a game designed to make you want to click ads so you can accomplish basically anything.

### 4/5 — Pay to skip ads?

*2026-01-31, version 1.28*

There’s no option for this? Kind of ruins the game for me

### 3/5 — Decent, needs work.

*2026-01-11, version 1.28*

Decent game. Needs more places to go and also needs ability to buy no ads like the rest of their games

### 3/5 — Money

*2026-01-08, version 1.28*

I feel like money generation should be quicker. I wait about 30 seconds to get 500 dollars, but I need 5,000-20,000 dollars! If money could be generated every 5-10 seconds, that would be better.

### 4/5 — Cool

*2026-01-05, version 1.28*

This game is very fun and has decent graphics. One thing is that I wish you could tap the screen quickly or something like that to make the work just generally go much faster. Otherwise, this idle game is pretty fun ngl

### 2/5 — Great game but

*2025-12-08, version 1.28*

I have loved this game ever since it came out, lots of stuff to work through and unlock, it’s good. But after having it for so long it just stopped working… I’ve checked this game over and over again through the past two years to see if it works and it seems like Codigames has completely given up on trying to fix it. I just redownloaded it and it immediately glitched and would not work at all. Really wish this game worked.

### 3/5 — Visual Issues

*2025-11-09, version 1.28*

The zoom out distance needs to be increased. The game itself is pretty good so far, only just made it to the second city, but I really wish I could zoom out more and see my whole station. Easy to get lost unless you remember exactly where everything is

### 2/5 — Loved this game before my stations kept crashing

*2025-09-28, version 1.28*

Loved this game and played all the time. Until recently when every single day one of my stations resets and I have start from scratch.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2026-08-02, version 1.28*

Reset my progress every time I went idle

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2026-06-12, version 1.28*

To many bugs, can’t even get past the tutorial. First freezes when I hire intern then have to close app and restart. Intern moves file to detectives area, then drops it off and then freeze there. No detectives, can only zoom in and out. Trie multiple times, I give up.

### 1/5 — データが突然消えます

*2026-05-31*

バグなのか何なのか、データが途中で全部消えました。

### 1/5 — Terrible GAME

*2026-02-07, version 1.28*

1 star

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-01-30, version 1.28*

I am all I’m literally stuck on the blue book. I can only zoom and I’m stuck and I can’t play it terrible.

### 1/5 — bug

*2025-11-06, version 1.28*

my game is bugged will not let me play, i have deleted and redownloaded it a couple times and cant get past a certain point in the tutorial

### 1/5 — Help

*2025-10-07, version 1.28*

I can’t even play it it gets stuck on the first part when u first open the app

### 1/5 — Sorry but no….

*2025-08-16, version 1.28*

Unfortunately, every time I load the game, it pauses and gets stuck right after Clyde huntsman talks about meeting the new detective. Would really like to play the full game but keeps on getting stuck on this. Please Fix It!!!???

### 1/5 — Games broken

*2025-07-10, version 1.28*

When you load in the game the captain gives a speech about detectives the npcs in the world move on but no icons appear on screen or anything you can move either other than zooming in and out very odd it would be 5 star if the game was working

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-06-28, version 1.28*

When you get to the 4th police station, interns and cops will stop working

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2026-05-31, version 1.28*

Got it yesterday this is one of my favorite idol games ever

### 5/5 — Serious bug PLEASE READ!!!

*2026-03-26, version 1.28*

I will let you know of a bug that i’ve encountered on a lot of your games

On this game, it’s less severe, but when you come back into the game after hopping off for a while, its almost like the game just restarts, because there is no-one in the jails, all of the officers are just rushing out of the building at once, and the income is much much lower than it should be. 

Why this is a problem is because sometimes the offline earnings are much lower than they should be, for example, if I have a $10000 income per ingame hour, and I leave for 10 minutes, i only get a few thousand when i should have gotten around $100,000.

I have also encountered this bug on your other games such as Idle Theme Park Tycoon, where the bug is incredibly severe, so bad that on the first park, if I leave for the full two hours, i only get a couple of thousand bucks. Also I think its also in Idle Law Tycoon but maybe thats just a skill issue on my end 😅

I actually don’t know whether this is an issue on my end, maybe it’s an iOS bug or maybe its a problem with the servers on your end, but it is a serious bug that needs addressing. This game, and really, all of your other games, are the full 5⭐️ experience, except for the ads like goddamn you need to make those shorter, maybe 15-30 secs AT MOST!!! 

Thank you for reading this review, I’m sure that your team will fix this bug and maybe look through your other games to identify and fix the bug if present.

All the best,
Future progarmer

P.S. Also i highly suggest adding an infinite map at the end of the game, to fix the problem of having to add maps all of the time (in all of your games where this problem occurs). What I mean by this is once you fully 100% the game, you unlock the final map, which is hidden from view in the map selection until you unlock it. Basically rooms are added every month or so and you could also add full sectors every few months which  accomodate more rooms and visibly make the police station much larger, because it would be so cool to log in and be met with The Pentagon. 

Obviously you dont have to add this to make the game better the game is already perfect but this would be so cool and it would make updating the game easier for you too.

All the best,
Future progarmer

### 5/5 — 정말 재미있는 게임이에요.

*2026-03-22*

적절한 방치와 플레이가 가능해 밸런스가 아주 좋은 타이쿤 게임입니다.
사람들이 섬세한 동작으로 움직여서 그냥 보고만 있어도 재미있습니다.
다만 게임을 어느 정도 실행하고 있으면 어느 순간 경찰이 출동을 하지 않아 수익이 0이 되는 오류가 언제인가부터 지속적으로 발생 중입니다.
껐다 켜면 감옥이 비어 있어서 수익이 어느 정도 수준으로 올라가려면 시간이 걸리구요.
이 부분은 개선이 된다면 좋을 듯합니다.
더불어 새로운 카드와 도시가 추가되면 더욱 좋을 것 같습니다.
지금은 이벤트로만 받을 수 있는 전설카드가 네 가지뿐이어서 약간 아쉬운 감이 없지 않아 있네요.
약간의 오류가 있긴 하지만 광고 유도도 없고 잘 만들어진 힐링하기 좋은 게임인 듯합니다.
이런 게임을 만들어 주셔서 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — So far a great game!

*2025-12-25, version 1.28*

No real complaints!!

### 5/5 — 休闲游戏

*2025-11-07, version 1.28*

挺好适合我在上班摸鱼的时候玩  能不能出一点类似款的再

### 5/5 — please😭

*2025-07-14, version 1.28*

i love this game so much but PLEASE make the "music" + "sound" volume on/off options work!!! i cannot play this game connected to bluetooth because its just men grunting😭😭

### 5/5 — New police station

*2025-06-20, version 1.28*

I completed 2 cities the one with the helicopters and the first police station I completed, we have been waiting for another station, please add one right now please!

### 5/5 — Really nice

*2025-05-22, version 1.28*

Best cop game I ever played

### 5/5 — It’s good, but

*2025-02-12, version 1.28*

It’s a bit hard to progress it’s been slow. I love it, and I kind of wish a prison bus came by and saw the picture of the prisoners in the cell said of just having them walk away.

### 5/5 — One of my favourites !

*2025-02-10, version 1.28*

This app goes to every new device. It’s definitely one of my favourites! It’s been 3 years since a new station was added. Do you plan to add more or do you see the game as complete? Thanks for creating something worth playing.
