Description
The game is set in 1920s Chicago and you play as a mobster trying to make a name for yourself and expand your empire. You can raise your criminal empire by establishing racket in different areas (such as speakeasies, breweries, brothels, Union skimming, protection racket, or casinos), and recruiting a team of loyal mobsters. You can also explore the city and interact with a cast of living, breathing characters with backgrounds that inform how they react to what you or other characters do. Each character has traits and relationships that significantly affect gameplay, and vice versa. You can also face off in brutal turn-based combat, recruit your goons strategically, and trade on the black market to gain an edge.
