Step into the gritty streets of Newport City in 1997 with Crime: 1997. This action-adventure title from Bad Guys Games plunges players into a world of crime, corruption, and desperation.

You'll assume the role of Henry Gallagher, a member of the Waterside Crew, a small-time gang caught in a dangerous web of escalating problems.

The narrative kicks off with a routine deal gone terribly wrong, leaving the Waterside Crew squeezed between an increasingly vigilant police force and the formidable Mafia empire led by Frank Sorvino. The city itself is a character, a concrete labyrinth where millions of stories collide, and survival is a daily struggle.

Adding to the chaos is the emergence of "Pulse," a potent new narcotic that's rapidly spreading, fueling addiction and greed across Newport.

Players will navigate this treacherous environment, where loyalty is a fleeting commodity. The game promises an immersive experience, exploring the harsh realities of a criminal underworld in the late 90s.

With its focus on action and exploration, Crime: 1997 aims to deliver a compelling narrative set against a backdrop of urban decay and intense conflict. The mature themes, violence, and strong language are all woven into the fabric of a crime drama story, making for a mature and engaging experience.
