Description
Become a made man as you vie for power in a Chicago-like town during the prohibition era. Gangsters is the strategy game where crime pays--and with dividends! You can don the knuckle dusters and “persuade” the local business owners to pay you for “protection” services. You can get your hands even more dirty and navigate in the cutthroat world of politics. Or simply go for the throat as you order your wiseguys to execute your enemies in the streets and show the city who’s “da boss”. Gangsters gives you all the power you need to get things done.

Played in a vast city filled with over 5,000 individual characters, Gangsters feature real-time action in a highly detailed isometric terrain. The game sports an easy-to use strategy planning interface, to authentically recreate the seedy, violent, and ruthless world of gangland mobsters. Remember, real power is never given, it’s taken!



ATI/AMD compatibility notice: Gangsters: Organized Crime requires graphic card drivers version 13.4 or older.
  • Run illegal businesses: extort, intimidate, bribe, and ruthlessly whack the opposition.
  • Become a Godfather and control every aspect of a 1920's-era mob "family".
  • Break the law and taunt the system or go legit and get elected Mayor!

I had assumed that installing through GOG Galaxy there would be compatibility patches in place for the game to run on modern systems - sadly that is not the case. The github-linked fix listed on another review has not worked for me, but may for you. GL.

Master Piece

The best mafia game about management, Since almost 30 years. For the problem with win 10 Download the fix on Github and if you have a Nvidia Card, turn off G-sync with the Nvidia Panel and the game will function. One regret, in the past the game had various languages, and we have just English in this Version. A little bit frustrated for a Non Native English speaker.

Best Mafia Sim

I know this game very well and played it a lot. The game has really great design ideas. Planning mode and live mode. Capos with own crews for dozens of different assignments. It's pretty deep but i have to say two things hinder longterm fun with this game. First the bad AI, which will always gang up on you on a specific point in your career. They really should have make the gameplay more open ended. As it is you always have to be aggressive to be even able to keep alive. Another flaw is the live mode, which frankly is broken. Most of the orders you can give will end in a fiasco with the cops and get your guys killed. The AI is so unbelievable stupid, it's not funny. Nontheless the game is superior to it's successor and all other gangster sim games. It has a deep gameplay and really a lot of hidden factors and possibilities. It's a shame it has so crucial flaws. Hopefully we'll see a remake or fixed version sometime.

One of the best games ever

A terrific game, management style and quite complex at the beginning., but very rewarding with the pass of time. Very entertaining and addictive. When I played this game back in the days, I always hoped there would be a sequel (because "Gangsters: Organized Crime" was soo good), but Gansgsters 2, was just awful, they lost the management style that made this game so awesome. Deep inside I still hope there will be a Gangsters 3.
