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!

Don't bother, not working on Windows 10

I run the game, the intro runs fine and a nice casino-themed main menu shows up, except none of the buttons have anything, no "start game", no "load game", just a whole bunch of silver buttons with nothing written on them. I apply the "fix" suggested somewhere bellow, I get the wrapper, use regedit, change the line... congratulations, now the game is all just a black screen! So glad GOG devs take their time to make these non-functional ports, what else would I waste my time and money on.

The game is great BUT

The game is awesome and some people must not understand that it was made in the late 90s its going to take some critical thinking to play this game and to get the game running and idk if somebody said any of this already but you will need to try to find the solutions to the crazy ridiculous lag that will happen and possible crashes and no text on main menu my current issue and use those solutions to get the game running smooth enough to play the game. This is the best first caution that should be in description but its not so your welcome.

Doesn't work

You can see any text on the main screen and you can't even click the "start game" button. Don't buy. Doesn't work.

Best gangster game along with Mafia

Really awesome game with great complexity and detail. Too bad GOG didn't put the latest patch along with the game. This version seems to have problem with the multiplayer. Singleplayer works great and is really awesome!

Gangsters organized crime.

Honestly this has got to be one of the most fun gangster sims I have ever played. But for those that play more relaxed sim games. Be careful when picking this title up, as there is quite a lot to learn about running a crime family. You will have to get used to planning every move very carefully in order to get the odds stacked in your favor. For example, think your hired thug can simply walk up and shoot a rival thug in the face with a hidden trench gun and walk away clean? No way. You have to make sure the cops are in your pocket in the area otherwise they may very well hunt your crew down. You will also have to keep a sharp eye out on rival families, just because your in an alliance with one does not mean they will stay loyal to the partnership forever. They may try to wipe you out more peacefully then by force. Such as stealing profits from your territory. Trying to bleed you dry and such. Overall, a good gangster sim for those that are looking for a challenge and hours of entertainment. Not to mention, a good game for the price tag it bears.
