The Academy — References and Easter Eggs

Hello Officers!

We continue to improve Police Stories and develop The Academy, a free prologue and prequel to the original game, where you can play as young Rick and John, who were trainees at the police academy back then. And today we want to ask you - how do you feel about the Police Stories' references?

The plot in Police Stories has always been not only a detective story, but also contained a share of humor and hidden references to other famous movies, books or even games. We don't want to stop this tradition, and we're going to add more easter eggs to The Academy.

For example, on one of the locations in the building you can find... a well! What do you think the reference is? There are also torture rooms and a sewing room. A strange combination that clearly refers to something!

Head to the comments and let us know what you think of the Police Stories' Easter eggs - we'd love to know your opinion! And don't forget to add The Academy to your Wishlist so that you don't miss the news and be the first to play the prequel.
