How to Make That Extra “scharole”

• Smash and Grab
  
• Truck Hijacking
  
• Chop Shops
  
• Drug Dealing
  
• Stickups
  
• Home Invasions

Features Worth Taking A Pinch For…

• Character customization - As they say look the part, be the part. Customized Vinny with a new look whatever the occasion.
  
• In-depth and realistic story-driven scenarios - Get a real feel of what it’s like to be an up-and-coming criminal within an organized crime family. Every mission has been created to give you a unique experience and take away that repetitive feeling.
  
• Empire panel - Control and view information about your ever-growing empire through the Empire panel.
  
• Money laundering - The game features a system where you will also require “clean money” to purchase legitimate assets. In order to do this, you will have to gain contacts that will turn that dirty money into clean money.

Where to meet your “goomba” and where to take your “goomah”

• The city is made up of 8 different areas that all offer a unique experience, just don’t go into some of the neighborhoods after 9 PM as you might lose your kidney and your wallet.

• Ferrers Green - Also known as Little Italy is the most historically riddled neighborhood of them all. If you're a tourist we recommend you grab a bite to eat at Carmines Corner or Old Papas clay house.

• Harrowfield - This is an iconic situated area with cafes, nightclubs, and enough stores to shop until you drop!

• Terminal Island - This is one of the busiest areas of the city. It hosts a large terminal dock that can harbor up to 4 container ships at a single given time. It’s also home to a Crafty beer brewery.

• Becken Garden - Also known as China town or by the locals as Wok City. You will find some of the best cuisines and bathhouses Asia has to offer.

• Fordham - Irish - American neighborhood which traces back to the 1800s. You want a pint of the finest ale Fordham is the place to be.

• Whiteway beach - Literally stuck between the old and the new. In one direction you have a thriving casino in the other direction you have a once-prominent beachfront that now hosts

• Flaxley - If you plan to drive through, lock your doors. If you plan to walk through there, don’t. One of the roughest drug-riddled neighborhoods in the city where the police refuse to patrol due to the sociable residents.

• City limits - The picturesque scenery really does put the area into perspective filled with beautiful mountains and farmland, it really does create the perfect spot to hide a body.
