Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel Overview
Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel is a Sierra adventure game that uses the AGI engine and a text parser. Its protagonist is patrol officer Sonny Bonds, who investigates drug-related crime in his city with the goal of apprehending a figure known as the Death Angel.
A defining characteristic is its focus on simulating real police protocols, requiring players to adhere to correct procedures. This realism extends to navigation, which is primarily handled through an overhead view for driving a patrol car instead of on-foot travel common in other titles from the developer.
Operating the vehicle is a challenging integrated component, as players must follow traffic laws and engage in pursuits. Progression involves advancing from street patrol duties to detective work, systematically dismantling a criminal operation.
