It all combines so that you can get lost in the campaign, even if the voice acting, characters, and narrative does it's best to dissuade you. The player choices add to this by allowing you to decide who you recruit, which turf you attack, which weapons you own, which job to take next, which assets to buy to increase your wealth and reputation, and a whole slew of other things that make being a boss more exciting. As you can't let boss Baker die on a mission as the game will be over and you'll have to start from scratch, there is gravity to your choices, even if the roguelike nature does make the game easier as you continue to play (that being said, I almost beat the game on the first run and only lost due to getting greedy when robbing a jewellery store, which shows just how pathetic the AI and challenge is). This is where you will spend most of your time in the game, and thankfully, the roguelike nature and the choice suite does at least keep things interesting here. You don't have multiple ways to tackle a job, it's very linear in how things play out, and the stealth systems are so badly adapted that it is near impossible to do a job without all hell breaking loose.īut anyway, the campaign. Why? Because (as it tells you many times) Crime Boss is not a heisting game and therefore lacks the options of a heisting title like Payday. The game will tell you that you need to plan and be smart about your heisting, but running in guns blazing and leaving a trail of bodies is just as effective, and is actually far easier than attempting to plan something out. In terms of how this all works in practice, Crime Boss: Rockay City is essentially just a first-person action shooter. The gameplay essentially revolves around completing robbery jobs to fund your empire, while Michael Rooker's Touchdown does the dirty work of claiming and defending territory across the city. Set in a 90s Miami-like city called Rockay City, the idea of this game is to take up the mantle of Michael Madsen's criminal protagonist Travis Baker, as he wages war on the rival gang bosses of the sun-drenched metropolis, all with some help from friends like Kim Basinger's Casey and Danny Glover's Gloves, and while evading police and law enforcement headed up by Chuck Norris' Sheriff Norris.
