It’s 1928 and the Don is dying! The latest attempt on the Don’s life has left him on his death bed with around a week to live. Seeking a worthy replacement to head the family, the Don has ordered his Captains to prove themselves before his final departure. As one of these Captains, its up to you to gain enough money and notoriety in the hopes of fulfilling the wishes stated in his last will and testament. You will slowly begin to increase your notoriety by owning buildings, winning gang fights, and making heaps of money running extortion and speakeasy rackets. Oh , don't forget! The Don's other Captains intend to do unto you far worse than what you do unto them!
