Overview
Description

Dan Miles, a former underground street racer, joins the Criminal Overturn Program and becomes a street detective tasked with protecting New York City from large‑scale threats. When his mentor Detective Brad Winter is falsely arrested, Dan goes undercover, returning to the streets to uncover the truth behind the arrests and a looming terrorist plot. As Dan delves deeper, he uncovers a deadly conspiracy that threatens to devastate the city. Players must navigate high‑speed chases, investigative missions, and intense combat to stop the catastrophic attack.

Set in the seedy underbelly of 1990s New York, you play as retired cop Jock LaMonte racing against time to rescue his ex‑girlfriend from a mob boss known only as Snow Man. The game blends a noir storyline with photorealistic 360° environments and FMV sequences, delivering a cinematic mystery experience. Snow Job is a first‑person point‑and‑click adventure where you explore fixed locations, manage an inventory, solve puzzles, converse with a cast of characters, and engage in mini‑game combat. Its three‑screen interface lets you navigate, view maps, and interact with the world in a uniquely immersive way.
