If you'd always wondered what it would be like to be a master criminal, then Payback is the game for you. It's entirely non-linear - to complete a level you simply have to obtain a certain number of points - how you get those points is entirely up to you; you can do what the local kingpin tells you, uncover secret missions or just go on a mad killing spree. This GBA action game takes inspirations from Rockstar/DMA's classic GTA series, but features unique gameplay elements, plus a visually stunning 3D GBA engine full of special effects and a smooth framerate.

Released 15 February 2001 for Amiga, Game Boy Advance, iOS and Mac by Apex Designs, published by Freeverse Software and Zoo Digital. Rated M by ESRB. Up to 4 players locally.
