Contraband Police is an enjoyable experience, but it has some annoying bits to deal with and there are definitely better alternatives with similar premises and gameplay.
This is The President won't deliver much in terms of strategy, but will provide great writing that should pull you through an entire term of virtual presidency.

Mirrored Souls uses its gimmick well for some really cool and fun puzzles, however, there were just some levels that didn't quite stick the landing for me.
