I never played Police Quest thankfully, but yeah you're 100% right.
I played the first one and it was absolute bullshit even from a game design standpoint. This PC Gamer article does a better job of explaining why, I still sometimes think of him describing the checking of the cop car's tires as Schrodinger's Cockup and chuckle to myself. https://www.pcgamer.com/saturday-crapshoot-police-quest/
Later, they actually hired Daryl Gates, the guy who was in charge of the LAPD during the Rodney King case and riots
Yeah I heard about the Daryl Gates thing recently on a retro games stream I watch. The game they hired him for is unbelievably bad too.
