Crash Time 4: The Syndicate is an action game based on the German series Alarm für Cobra 11: Die Autobahnpolizei. The player takes on the roles of police officers Ben Jäger and Semir Gerkhan, whose task is to break up an international crime syndicate.

The game offers an open world and over 100 km of roads in Cologne and on the highway, where the player performs various missions, such as chases, races or setting up surveillance cameras. The basic goal is to stop suspects by ramming their vehicles. The gameplay is primarily dynamic chases and spectacular actions, but there is no shortage of tasks that require strategic thinking, such as creating a monitoring network to track the movements of criminals.

The car models are well reproduced, but there are no pedestrians, and the physics of collisions and explosions leave much to be desired. Despite these shortcomings, driving itself is a pleasure, thanks to the precise control model.

Crash Time 4 also features a multiplayer mode with races and deathmatches for 2-8 players.
