Welcome to Mega-City One, a city of over four hundred million people and everyone of them a potential criminal. Stretching the length of the 22nd century American eastern seaboard, Mega-City One is the most dangerous city on Earth, for it is calculated that one serious crime takes place every second of every day. So dangerous, it demands a special breed of law enforcer. Here, there are no police, no trials and no juries - only the judges. It takes fifteen years to train a judge for life on the streets of Mega-City One. Fifteen years of iron discipline, rigid self-control and concentrated aggression. Toughest of all judges is Joe Dredd, a man vested with the power of instant justice, a man whose court is the streets and whose word is the Law! The Judge Dredd role-playing game allows players to take the role of either judges patrolling the streets in a desperate attempt to maintain Law and order, or as perps, lawbreakers determined to buck the authority of the judges and set up their own criminal organisations.
"It's business as usual in Mega-City One.

When Judge Dredd, Mega-City One's toughest lawman,is called to what seems to be a routine shooting,nobody has any idea of the horror about to be,unleashed - until a mysterious creature bursts,from the victim's chest!
