It's hard to put into words how I feel right now...
6 years of work, ~1400 days of challenges and difficult technical and artistic work... Everything pays off now when I read your positive reviews. When I see you notice every detail we've been working on. When I see on Youtube, Twitch how much you enjoy our game! 95% of positive reviews and 6500 player at the same time is the biggest reward a game developer can imagine...
I am deeply touched and grateful for how you have experienced our world, gameplay and all the work we put into Contraband Police. Thanks to you, we feel even more motivated to continue working on the game: creating add-ons, optimizing and fixing other issues.
In the interest of the highest quality of the game, tomorrow at 7PM CET we will introduce an update that fixes some of the issues you have already reported, e.g. too hard and frequent road attacks.
We wish you all good moments spent in the game.
Glory to Acaristan! Crazy Rock Team
The game is released!
Comrades!
The moment everyone was waiting for has come - The gates of Acaristan have been opened!
The entire Crazy Rocks Team has done a titanic job overcoming literally thousands of problems on the way to a shared vision of the game. Each of us put a piece of his heart into this work - a player's heart because we are also players!
This project would not have been created without the support of Kris, Alex and Kuba (PlayWay S.A.), who invested in it and trusted our actions until the very end - allowing for the implementation of more ambitious features and giving time for solid technical refinement.
We hope that you will enjoy our game and promise full technical support. We are also planning further development works, such as an additional mode (Inspector) - only at the outpost, no limit of days and additional side missions in individual locations. As usual, we will also listen to your ideas and implement the most interesting ones!
Thank you for your support so far in the form of important comments, suggestions and caught bugs. It is also thanks to you that the game has become so popular, which made it easier for our investors to decide to continue financing the project! None of my work so far in my life has been so appreciated - you are wonderful!
We wish you successful service at the Karikatka border crossing!
Stan & Crazy Rock Team

Contraband Police - Release Date 8.03.2023
Comrades!
We know how much you are waiting for the premiere of ContrabandPolice, and we also can't wait to show you the result of our six-year work. During this time, we came to revolutionary conclusions and improvements that took the game to the next level, resulting in subsequent release delays. Today, we know that the game is ready and has exceeded our wildest expectations!
Our Prologue has been downloaded over a million times by players all over the world! To make the game even more accessible, we decided to add six new languages before the release:
Japanese
Korean
Traditional Chinese
Latin American Spanish
Portuguese
Dutch
Recently, we`ve managed to refine many important details, such as character animations, memory optimization, performance, and extensive graphic settings. Oberankov's gang opponents have gained a new graphic style that better fits the atmosphere of the 1980s. In addition, during inspections, you will learn the dramatic stories of some drivers and decide their fate!
We are currently working on the official trailer for the game, which will be released later this month.
Best Regards, Crazy Rocks Team
Contraband Police Playtest Finished!
Comrades!
Thank you for participating in our Pre-release PlayTest! You gave us a lot of valuable comments, most of which have already been implemented in the project!
We mainly addressed the following issues:
Easier shootouts Significantly improved weapon accuracy and marker visibility when hitting or killing an enemy. We speeded up reloads, increased the player's health and regeneration, improved the effectiveness of police units.
Longer time of day We've increased the time of the day from 25 to 35 minutes (real time) - this allows you to safely perform inspections and explore the world.
Detailed Inspection summary From now on, you can get detailed information about the places where contraband was hidden (e.g. tires, headliner, glove box)
More tutorials Added more explanations for basic mechanics (e.g. garage, computer, phone, trade etc)
Item balance Lower tool prices and improved durability
Easier comparison of declared cargo We have added the ability to show notes from the cargo notebook in the duty folder. You no longer have to hide the entire folder to check your notes.
More interesting driving around the world To diversify your journeys between locations - from now on you can encounter hostile Oberankov gang units that make it difficult to transport prisoners or contraband!
Once again, thank you very much for all your comments! Get ready for the Contraband Police premiere in January!
Best regards, The CrazyRocks Team
