The easiest victory comes when you “go straight”: if you have enough capital, enough legal businesses, and no illegal rackets, you can become a successful, law-abiding businessman.
There are three ways to win, and each method is harder than the last. You can start a generic full-length game or choose from a number of pre-made scenarios with different city layouts and starting conditions. You manage a criminal empire not unlike those of the gangland legends of the Roaring Twenties. In a nutshell, Gangsters is “SimCapone”, a gangland simulator as deep and palatable as a barrel of bootleg rum. The fact that it was made for Windows 95, which is notoriously unfriendly to modern PCs, didn’t help its legacy, either. The screenshots strongly suggest an action-oriented RTS, like Starcraft but with fedoras, Tommy guns, and Dillinger-era coupes. Gangsters: Organized Crime doesn’t get the praise or recognition it deserves, probably because on its initial release it was mistaken for something else. This is your chance to shine, to make a name for yourself in the underworld… assuming the three rival gangs don’t beat you to the punch. You and your crew have just arrived in New Temperance, virgin territory that is begging like a farmer’s daughter for some bad boy to come and take it. It is the 1920’s, and prohibition is in full swing, leaving the American people thirsty for dance, dames, and drink.
