Great Game That Doesn't Work
Like everyone else here, I can't get this classic game to work on Windows 10. Really wish GOG would fix this problem as this is a masterpiece game I'd love to play after all these years. Right now, it's unplayable.

The game is great, but it might not work
Do you want to run a city as a crime boss in an open, free-form crime sim? Enjoy firebombing the competition, intimidating business owners, and put the hit out on your rivals? Relish the satisfaction of successfully spending a few hours getting a game from two decades ago to work on modern systems? Gangsters is, fundamentally, a great, seemingly overlooked classic of management gaming. The gameplay itself is sort of a crime-themed strategy game - you recruit and outfit gangsters, set them to various tasks (both mundane, such as making the weekly collections, and more thrilling, such as drive by machinegunning), and manage quite a bit of other minutae related to running an empire. Much of this is done through a sort of strategic turn phase, presented as you reading the paper and issuing orders from your office, but once the plans have been set into place, they are executed in real time. This gives the game a much less abstracted feel compared to a lot of management games. It's a tremendously fun game, and while watching a building's windows blow out in low-res splendour isn't quite as thrilling or impressive as it was 20 years ago, it's still *fun*. As is obvious, however, it may not work very well on your computer. I had the fortune of getting it up and running in about ten minutes (there's a thread with a patch and a regedit note in the forum which got it started. Fixing a missing text issue was then as easy as running in XP SP2 compatibility mode, and my mouse stutter was solved by disabling my Nvidia card in favor of whatever onboard graphics setup intel provided. Now it runs perfectly. You might not have as easy of a time. For me, it was worth $8 to take the risk, and I've always liked the game enough to not mind what I was expecting to be a sizable time investment to get something working.

Game does not run properly!
I wanted to play this game again, but it just simply doesn't work for Windows 10. I'd be willing to update the review if the website finds a fix for it.
