Crime Time
Article Abstract:
Players patrol the streets and give chase with their automobiles to bank robbers in Crime Wave from Penguin Software. To catch crooks players must crash their cars into them during the chase, although this does not always guarantee success because robbers often get away on foot. Those who do get away then return with a robot rammer with which they try to destroy the players' cars. The game offers several levels and speeds.
