Jedna z nejpopulárnějších her vydaných v Čechách. S nezapomenutelným dabingem Luďka Soboty, Jiřího Lábuse, Václava Postráneckého, Stanislava Fišera a Valerie Zawadské. Oproti PC verzi navíc obsahuje možnost zobrazení návodu, možnost zobrazení aktivních míst v lokaci a aktivních předmětů v inventáři, tutoriál a dva režimy ovládání – klasickým kurzorem nebo pouze dotykově. Polda Pankrác jde opět do akce - tentokrát ho o pomoc požádá známý vědec profesor Santusov, který se obává zneužití svého největšího vynálezu - stroje času. Polda se podívá do všech možných i nemožných lokací v několika časových údobích celých dějin lidstva, vč. temné komunistické budoucnosti a pravěku. Hra se dočkala velikých změn, jako třeba nový 3D kabát, ale stále je to skvělá humorná adventura podpořená skvělým dabingem. Úvodní část hry je zdarma, poté máte možnost dokoupit si plnou verzi hry. Budeme rádi pokud nás koupí podpoříte, abychom se mohli pustit třeba i do dalších dílů. -kombinace 3D a 2D -více než 80 lokací v různých historických obdobích -více než 70 interaktivních postav -vynikající stylová grafika -velké množství předmětů -strhující příběh o cestování časem -logické úkoly -stylový hudební doprovod a kvalitní ozvučení -dva druhy ovládání - klasickým kurzorem a dotykově Prosíme všechny, kterým hra nějak nefunguje, nebo mají nějaký jiný problém, aby psali na zimasoftware@seznam.cz.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Polda 4 at 5.0 against Playing Prague's 4.2. Polda 4 also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Playing Prague's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Polda 4 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Playing Prague has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Polda 4's written reviews are positive against 75% of Playing Prague's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Polda 4 ships an update every 2 months, Playing Prague every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
