Welcome to Sharpwood. Jack Boyd is back in This Is The Police 2. As Warren Nash, he will assist the young sheriff - Lilly Reed. Together, they will try to stop criminals and deputies who don't want to accept the new sheriff.

The guide for This Is The Police 2 contains information that will help you manage your police officers in the best possible way. Learn about the basic gameplay mechanics such us, e.g. choosing the right police officers for specific missions or the tactical combat system. The guide also features a walkthrough - there, you can find descriptions of all in-game days along with tips on managing your shifts.

This Is The Police 2 was developed by Weappy Studio. Just like the previous game, it is a mix of a strategy and an adventure game. However, it also introduces a lot of new features and mechanics. Unlike in the predecessor, your success here doesn't depend only on experience points but also on skills of your police officers. The game also features a tactical combat mode where you can control your subordinates.

General tips

1. Choose your shifts carefully - choosing police officers accordingly to their experience isn't the only thing that matters. Your subordinates are capricious. One of your police officers can refuse to work if you pair them up with someone who they don't like.
2. Take care of your police officers' loyalty - it can decrease if you keep denying your police officers to have a few days off. This can lead to a situation where a police officer will refuse to fulfill your orders during tactical missions.
3. Spend pop-tabs on a regular basis - a successful day should provide you with a lot of pop-tabs. Usually, after a day like that you will be able to afford another police officer. At the end of a shift you can choose one of the three subordinates. You get different police officers every day - collecting pop-tabs to have a specific officer is pointless.
4. Don't forget to assign equipment to your police officers - you have to assign equipment to your subordinates at the beginning of every shift. You can do that yourself or you can use the option that assigns equipment randomly. Even if you forget to do that the game will still allow you to start this day. However, many of the potential solutions to the cases will become unavailable.
5. Develop your police officers in the right way - every 50 experience points, your police officers get 1 skill point which can be spent on increasing one of the five attributes. Try to develop one of their skills to the maximum level as fast as you can to increase your success rate of completing a given case.
6. Don't be afraid to send out larger squads with less-skilled officers - this will allow them to get experience points. Doing that also increases your chance to solve a given case. It can happen that one of your subordinates has enough points in a skill that is required to solve a given case.
7. Avoid situations where you have a small number of police officers in a shift - usually, your subordinates either don't show up for work or they ask you for a day off. You also can't use detectives which means that all the cases have to be solved with an assigned shift. Having a small number of police officers in a shift can lead to a situation where you won't have any officers who can respond to a call etc.
