The Commission: Organized Crime Grand Strategy

Think of Gangsters or gangsters 2 ! If you are a fan of Mafia games, then this one is for you ! It is a strategy game. You play a Boss of 5 families. You choose which family you want ! it's a fun little game , to me it is a gem ! I am playing it right now ! I want to thank the developers for making it. There is a lack of Mafia games since Gangsters 2 and Mob Rule. There is Omerta which I also adore too. If you like this genre you wont be disappointed. To me the 20 bucks is worth it . To other players it may be disappointing. It is a game like from 1997. I adore the game its a small gem. Its realistic. You can promote associates into soldiers. You can promote soldiers into capos. Its fun ! Its a little gem and I would recommend it to gangsters and Gangsters 2 fans. Yes those games probably had more capital to make it a more bigger game but think of the potential. Thanks for making the game , hope you make a part 2 with many more options . Think of it. Thanks! It's time for me to take ov...

I was eager to like this, and most of the elements of a decent game are here in a rudimentary form. However, as I played, I gradually realized that my ever-lengthening list of criticisms and suggestions were not applicable. I was trying to construct a critique of a grand strategy game for PC, but what this is... is a mobile game. The depersonalized art, the extremely basic functionality, the extremely slow grind, the impossibility of dynamic or decisive action against opposing families, no endgame or even significant event markers along the way... all these things are hallmarks of the mobile design paradigm, and you can even see the spots where monetization features might have been scratched out for a PC port. There are the bones of a solid mob grand strategy game here, but that's all. Just bones.

This game isn't worth the price tag by far. No tutorial at all, good luck with that. No research, no henchmens recruiting or equipping, nothing to build, the lack of a tutorial makes everything really nebulous. Even on easy the AI is able to make a lot of money and get 2 or 3 territories in less than 24 turns while you struggle to understand what you're supposed to do or how to create a racket. Dunno what I'm supposed to do and what the game really has to offer, but we're really far from any kind of mafia game.

For now the game is not worth the money in my opinion. The mid to late game is very shallow, and it pretty much become a click game (to maximize the profits with espansions) and steamroll the other families when you got new caporegime/soldiers. Having said that, I see that the devs are still working on it (in my opinion is more an early access game than a finish product). I could change my review if some (many) improvement are done in the RPG aspect of the game (politics, diplomacy with the other families, diplomacy and betrayal inside own family) and late game objective (it's very easy, maybe way to easy, to build a Casino and late game facilities).

I have really enjoyed this game thus far, while initially seeming a little sparse, I very quickly realised that there is actually alot of nuance and interesting interactions between mechanics. The traits for your soldatos, capos and your don, for example, at first seemed a little generic and boring, until I realised they stack on top of each other in the geographic divisions of the game, allowing interesting stacking and builiding of modifiors and alot of interesting possibilities there alone! This game is teeming with things like that, the mechanics all feel well thought out and nuanced. The game is also very thematically sound with money being the sole driving purpose and primary resource of everything you do, your actions are abstracted in a brilliant way, almost simulating the dissonance between the leader of a criminal syndicate and the carnage they create. You will end up killing dozens of people, in the cold pursuit of money, and you will not see any of it, it is purely imper...

Don't waste any money on this game. It's boring, repetitive, without any depth or support from the developers. It's already long dead and forgotten. Wasted $20 on this :(

hate to give this a negative review but there is simply too much going on here thats problematic. First things first no, this isnt gangsters 1 or 2 and to be honest thats not what I epxected it to be althought i did expect a different game which to be fair is probably my own fault. The game loop is as follows, pick a family which than gives you randomly assigned capos and their underlings with random bonuses - yes the families do have set bonuses as such but from what ive seen and read most ppl seem to agree that the big affects are had by the guys that get rolled at random. Than randomly put these guys into various neighborhoods to try and figure out what rackets will work there. Now that in itself isnt necessarily bad but it starts a trend - everything is random. Untill you have setup in a burrow and in fact a specific neighborhood there is no way to scope out what will work in that specific place ie what people you should have wokring what type of rackets there. (if there is I haven...

This is basically a flash game. the funny fact is, that there are flash games with more depth than this one. This is a twenty dollar game. A twenty dollar game. For what you get, and for what you paid, this is a severe loss. This game should be for free on Kongregate. That is how stupid the price is, and how minimal the game is.

This is a really shallow management sim. The entire game is a menu driven flash game, you'll be reading spread sheets and stats without really feeling like you are doing much. That game play style might be OK if there was depth, but the decisions are so simple that there's no real satisfaction. There's a few stats that pretend to matter, but it's mostly just volume, hire enough people and the stats are meaningless. Hire random-name, assign to job, wait for money. Twiddle thumbs and wonder why you are playing. Looking at the history of other reviews apparently the game used to be $20, it's now price reduced to $5 and I still don't think it's worth that. What you see in the screenshots on the store page is the game, you'll just be flopping between those menus making choices that don't feel like they matter much and waiting for the game to end. --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38232109/]While you are here, would you consider following my curator page?[/url] [url=https://...

This is a tough call for me. Let me say this...I have thoroughly enjoyed the game to this point. The enjoyment has come to a crashing (no pun intended) halt now however. I got to the point in the game where my don reached lvl 3 power. I was really happy with my progress...until...I tried to promote 1 of my soldatos to capo and assigned him to a new borough. That seemingly simple little action cost me FOUR rackets he was working in another neighborhood. They all were closed due to "lack of muscle" in that particular place. I thought to myself "how can this be"? So I decided to check discussions to see if others had this same problem. Not only did I find several with the same problem, this same bug goes back a few years to the game release itself. It was supposedly going to be corrected in an update, along with a few other small bugs. This bug has made the game un-playable for me. I am not holding out much hope for a correction since the devs are working on a sequel(?) It's a shame, but...
