New game features AI-driven Soviet-era policeman “with a precise moral compass”

‘Militsioner’ (what a policeman was called in the USSR and up until 2010) is a new indie game from Russian studio Tallboys, unveiled on Steam in July 2020.

“Escape from the Giant Policeman before he catches you in this first-person open-sandbox game set in a mysterious world,” reads the project’s Steam page.

The location is a fictitious provincial town in a surreal post-Soviet Russia full of cars, trams, and trains. There is no linear storyline — just lots of escape routes and scope for experimentation. However, the developers claim that the giant policeman’s AI helps him express emotions and arms him with a “precise moral compass”.
