Set in a sleepy American country town in the 1980s, American Fugitive invites you to play as Will Riley. You're no angel, but you're not a killer. Yet the cold-blooded murder of your dad is the crime they've locked you up for. Fuelled by grief and a burning desire for vengeance, you must break out of jail to find the real culprit. It's payback time.

Critic Reviews
By Michal Mráz
If you ignore the bad artificial intelligence of the police and actually the whole city, American Fugitive is quite a fun game, accompanied by a great musical background and its art graphics processing is great. The developers tried to create a game inspired by the good old classics and they succeeded to some extent. You can buy the game on Steam for €19.99.

American Fugitive is a fun romp through a colourful, top-down GTA-inspired open-world crime-fest. While the game has some issues, such as repetitive missions, as well as stability problems on the Switch, it doesn't stop it from being an all-around fun and engaging title when you're actually playing.

American Fugitive is fine if you can overlook its slew of flaws. From shaky AI to an overzealous crime detection system and spotty controls, there's enough here to make one quit the game rather quickly. It helps that the core aspect of the open-world gameplay and the small town setting are enough to keep some people interested. If you really want a throwback to the old GTA system, then this will do, but don't expect something as polished and varied as Retro City Rampage.

Overall view of American Fugitive is that this could be a brilliant game on the Switch, it’s presentation is brilliant and it looks beautiful, there’s destruction to be had all around Redrock but the issues with the game mentioned above kind of hold this back, plus the bizarre choice when respawning after death just brings the game down from all out gang warfare to playing with super soakers. If you can get past the annoyances, I would say go for it and give the game a try, it does have potential but again, the downsides can’t be ignored.

With all the variety of story quests and nice graphics, American Fugitive is a very buggy and boring game
