Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 17 → 1.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Le jeu n'est pas terminé, et il manque cruellement d'un mode multijoueur. Il n'y a plus de mise à jour, je ne recommande pas. edit: vraiment pas fou, ça serait bien en jeu mobil, presque idle, la diplomacie est vraiment mal faite, pour un jeu uniquement en solo, c'est dommage, le combat est lent, et très répétitif, et rapidement sans enjeux.
Mise à part l'histoires des DLC payés mais jamais sortis (je fais parti des pigeons) si je devais noter le jeu pour ce qu'il est c'est un OUI. Jeu pas parfait, mais digne successeur de Omerta ou Gangsters (pour les plus anciens). Oui y a des bugs, oui la difficulté est assez élevée, mais bon, un peu de challenge c'est bien non? Malgré une gestion un peu trop légère, et quelques aspects un peu répétitif, le jeu a une très bonne re-jouabilité avec chaque boss qui ont leurs histoires et missions propres, les quartiers ne sont jamais les mêmes, les aspects aléatoires (raids des autres clans, les flics, les problèmes de clients etc) ajoutent un coté vivant à la ville. Bref, vous aimez la prohibition? La Mafia? N'hésitez pas, pour le moment y a pas mieux en gestion de mafia. Il vous fera passé de bonnes heures de fun, j'y retourne régulièrement.

For anyone planning to get this, Don't, Its Abandonware Trash that got dropped by both the Developer and Publisher, There was also meant to be an Expansion 2 which never saw the light of day, and can be found on peoples steam inventory since it was explicitly sold before launch, Stay far away from giving Romero or Paradox money, you won't ever see the finished product
empire of bug
trashcan devs dipped after getting their money. so disgusting.
I seen the preview commercials long before it released, ever since I thought thats gonna be a cool game. It's been on my wishlist ever since it released. Finally got it in this summer sale... It is so much better than you might know at first glance. It's basically a prohibition era version of Xcom crossed with perhaps, I dunno, Star Trek Birth of the Federation. If you love either of those games you will probably have a blast with this one, especially if you like the whole gangster themed empire building. Sure, they could probably have done more, added more, expanded, but it is a solid playable game as is. Anyone who doesn't like the game probably doesn't like any of the other games either... It is kind of a hybrid of everything, not quite real time but not strictly turn based either. And, your every decision matters. So, if you love Xcom, or similar, you probably going to enjoy this. If thats not your kind of game, then you probably wont.
Developers abandoned the game and left false promises. Steer clear.
spamming offers and unskippable fights
somehow my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ loads are gone
it lacks depth
