Empire of Sin - do the mobster mash(up)... out spring 2020

Post by Sly Boots » Wed Jun 19, 2019 8:36 am

This looks like a lot of fun actually - basically a mash-up of Crusader Kings 2, XCOM and the Untouchables/Boardwalk Empire:

I like all the constituent parts, so if they can pull it all together and make the various aspects work, this would be right up my (dingy, filled with tommy gun-wielding mooks) alley.

I'm really hoping this is the game that I wanted Gangsters: Organised Crime to be back in the late 90s.

On a separate note, holy hell, how many great games are slated to come out next spring?! My wallet and time and going to take a battering.

Maybe there's a reason for it, like targeting a release this financial year? I'd imagine some of them will slip/be picked up for EGS exclusive and cease to exist for a further 12 months.

This looks like it's shaping up pretty nicely:
