Hill Street Blues
DOSManagement simulation
Hill Street Blues is a police-management simulation for DOS developed by Krisalis Software and based on the American television drama of the same name. The player runs a busy urban precinct, balancing patrol coverage, investigations, staff assignments, public safety, and the personal pressures associated with police work. Rather than focusing on direct action, the game presents a strategic command experience built around decisions and resource management. Its licensed setting gives it a recognizable cast and atmosphere, while the interface and systems reflect early-1990s computer simulations. Reception was niche and mixed, with interest from fans of the show but criticism of the dated presentation and sometimes opaque management mechanics.

How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
