This new Salman Khan game lets you take on criminals as Chulbul Pandey

Being SalMan features three different roles to play from based on characters of Khan’s most successful movies

Salman Khan is well known for taking bold initiatives for his fans and the latest by the Bollywood star comes in the form of role-play game Being SalMan.

The game features three different roles based on characters of some of Khan’s most successful movies. These include Chulbul Pandey, a cop who is out to fight crime, Tiger, a counter terrorism spy and Prem, who wants to put an end to evil.



The game features decent graphics and provides step by step instructions at first which make it very easy to navigate.

Each mission starts with a target that has to be eliminated with the mode of action depending on the character one is playing. Tiger normally uses a sniper rifle to eliminate terrorists and is mostly taking cover at rooftops. To keep his cover, the character has to change his appearance. This allows the character to progress to new missions.

Chulbul Pandey is more versatile and fights street crime. The role of a policemen allows him to fight criminals with his bare hands and also use a handgun.

The third character is evil-fighting Prem who carries a machine gun.  Each character has a list of missions that become more difficult as you progress. The points one earns by completing missions are then used to upgrade the character.

The game is pretty basic with characters not being afforded the opportunity to roam freely. Characters are automatically placed at a location and the player can only move the direction of a weapon wielded by one of the characters to take aim.



However, the game does offer a degree of customisation with the option of upgrading weapons to be more effective in missions.

Each mission also costs two energy units meaning the game has limited usage and needs a while to recharge before one can resume playing. All in all, Being SalMan is a pretty decent game taking into to account the fact that it is based on Bollywood characters and not a successful gaming franchise.

While the game is available for free on Android, iOS users can get it for $0.99.
