How it feels

A tense multiplayer game of high-stakes deals and betrayals, where careful negotiation can explode into chaotic car chases and gunfights at any moment.

What players say

Players look back fondly on its unique mafia-style mechanics, but universally agree the developer abandoned it years ago and the multiplayer is dead. Many also criticize the $20 price tag for a game that is no longer supported.
