Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 17 → 1.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

great time killer, and a great new version of risk
Positives: Combat,Weapons,Useables,Setting,Looks.Bosses/Gangsters,Quests. Negatives: Campaign,Talents,Economy,Difficulty. Rant: Main problem i got is it feels like the game lack alot of systems and the ones thats in are pointless or they are not done well. Outside of combat there is no challenge,the ai simple dont do anything. I think there should a systems that makes them do something against you outside of war. The game becomes so boring when the game turn in to collect rackets sim. Talents is given by time, so by the point you got half the map you still havent gotten half of them. occ/raze/sack option dont make any sense outside of a turnbased campagin game. War: just attack,no point of defending since you win by killing their boss. When i started up the game and the paradox logo popped,i figured it was not going to be a normal trpg. This needed more time and better ideas.
Rilasciato nel 2020, creano mappe enormi con poca interattività nell'ambiente. A parte gli edifici, auto e alcune persone, non puoi interagire con nulla. I combattimenti sono così così, le opzioni dei tuoi racket sono ridotti all'osso, anche le opzioni verso la polizia sono veramente esigue. C'è da chiedersi se non abbiano rilasciato solo una parte del gioco per qualsiasi motivo, magari erano stretti coi tempi o il budget era finito, bho. Purtroppo il gioco è noia allo stato puro per l'esigua quantità di roba all'interno. Cioè, io mi chiedo come abbiano avuto il coraggio di rilasciarlo in questo stato e soprattutto a 39 euro a prezzo pieno. è vero che solitamente si aspettano gli sconti e la versione base puoi prendertela a 9.99, ma sinceramente non consiglierei di prenderlo se non al di sotto dei 5 euro a meno che non siate appassionati di questo tipo di gioco.
i got this game cheap so im not really mad about it but if your going to play the game your atleast going to need to use the dev menu once. game is buggy and some missions and etc wont work but otherwise acctually a good time killer
I picked it up for $10 on sale, played all day and didn't run into any bugs. I did see a typo in one of the dialogue menus. It's a fun game and definitely worth it at the price. It's basically a 4x, rts like management sim. In typical Paradox fashion, it's a niche game that nobody else is making, but wasn't completely optimized and probably didn't get as much attention from product testing as it deserved. Still fun though, and for $10 it's a steal. Crazy to me that people will pay >$20 to see an imax movie that lasts 2-3 hours, but then spend 20-30 hours playing a game that costs $40 and complain that they got ripped off.
its good i enjoy it but its clearly been abandoned so what ever bugs are in it ur stuck with them this game will probs never be updated or fixed
J'aime tout de ce magnifique jeu
