How it's structured

Players set their own goals in creating a crime empire with freedom to choose their path as a street mastermind or ruthless gangster. Exploration of dark alleys and street environments in a non-linear, player-driven order is a key element. While a co-op sequel exists, this base game supports single-player crime empire building as a core mode.
