Dick Tracy on the Nintendo NES (1990) is an action game where players take on the role of the iconic detective, Dick Tracy. The main objective is to capture various criminals and solve crimes throughout the game’s levels. Players navigate urban environments, battling enemies and avoiding hazards to progress through the story.
The gameplay pace is moderately fast, requiring quick reflexes to defeat foes and complete missions efficiently. A unique mechanic involves using a combination of hand-to-hand combat and weapon-based attacks, which adds variety to encounters. Players can also use a detective’s signature weapon, the two-way wrist radio, enhancing the gameplay experience by integrating crime-solving elements.
One distinctive feature of Dick Tracy is its incorporation of comic book style visuals and characters, creating an atmosphere that aligns closely with the source material. This blend of action and detective work offers a slightly different approach compared to traditional side-scrolling action games of the era.
