About

Chicago in the 30s. You are an aspiring boss of a criminal organization and plan to make big money. Easier said than done, though - you will have to decide how much money to spend on guns and ammo, how much to bribe the police and how many people to put the squeeze on in your protection racket. And doing a good job might be bad for your health, since other organizations might hire hitmen to eliminate you. When this happens an arcade sequence takes place where you must outgun the hitman. Fail and you are given a percentage rating for your performance in the game.

The game features stylish graphics and is presented - not unlike King of Chicago - through conversations with other goons of your mob. And if you lose all your money or men, you will get the unforgettable message by your right-hand man... "What a schmuck you are, Mugsy."
