About

Border Sim

Features
Read full description

Police officer simulator: search cars, X-ray smugglers, play the border guard. Smugglers are on the road. The border is yours. How to play: • Listen to the driver — Everyone arrives with a story. Some lie about where they hid something, some are just nervous, rude or very polite. • Send passengers to the booth — Unload the passengers. In the booth you search by hand, check documents and bags, or use the X-ray. • Scan the vehicle — Tap the hood, glovebox, doors, seats and trunk. Shine the flashlight and mark anything suspicious. • Check the wanted file — Every Monday 40 records arrive: faces, plates and vehicle descriptions. Compare carefully. • Make your call — Vehicle: let it pass or seize it. Each passenger: release or detain. Searching innocent people costs reputation. • Rise and unlock tools — Coins and rank unlock the mirror, X-ray, detector, UV lamp, sniffer dog and more. You can buy the X-ray booth early with coins.
