The era of prohibition in America saw organized crime rise 2 new heights & the establishmentof criminal families that frequently fought with each other in bloody mob wars.

Starting in the suburbs of quiet little old Hick Town, on 2 the inhospitable Cripple's Bend, then halfway across the world 2 Rangoon in Burma, back 2 the Southern parts of the U.S. inDead Dog Ditch & finally 2 the Mecca of organized crime - - Capitol City. Every city presents a unique challenge as you have 2 overcome the natural hazards already there & still carry out the demands of the Godfather.

Using your gang of Workers, Gangsters, Undesirables, Thugs, & Fixers you start by constructing a power base in a city which youultimately hope 2 expand into an empire by controlling all the blocks in the city.

Mob Rule is a unique marriage between survival in 1930's criminal underworld & cutting-edge strategic gaming - all wrapped up in an addictive andhilarious p
The gameplay is different from the newer pc games, because it's more or less formatted like an "old school" video game.
The controls are easy 2 navigate with your keyboard OR mouse, the movement is simple but amusing because of the comedic element, the missions are hard enough 2 get your attention but they aren't so hard 2 where you get frustrated. It's challenging while entertaining.
MACMILLAN Mob Rule Platinum (Windows)The sound effects are hilarious & the "underlined sex, drugs & violence" themes are totally intriguing while being hilarious. I laugh the whole time I play this game. When it first came out, I paid around $50 or $60 4 it *if i'm not mistaken* & I'm about 2 buy it again, because I lost it in the last move I made.
One of the BEST DISCONTINUED GAMES EVER!
I LOVE IT!
