For the first time, an SLG has actually made me feel like a real crime boss. Starting out as a nobody street thug, you recruit underlings, establish strongholds, and gradually take over rival territories. The gameplay is full of negotiations, betrayals and shifting alliances — far more than just mindless stat grinding and number crunching. The art style and dialogue nail that gritty, hard-boiled gangster vibe. Every gang war gets my blood pumping.
