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 · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 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.

I can recommend Empire of Sin because I enjoyed it and got really into it. The game isn’t perfect, but with the Aurora DLC, it plays much better. I’d love to see more expansions like this.
I played this game on the console years ago when it first came out. It's come a long way since then with added complexity and more challenges. My first go round I found myself tiring of it because game play was fairly easy. Now I find it to be more interesting and fun.

Não recomendo. Com 35 minutos tendo o jogo, dos quais apenas 10 foram jogando em si, já consegui enjoar. O jogo é raso, a gameplay é ruim e não entrega aquilo que promete. Uma pena, tinha tudo para ser um ótimo jogo.

Its not the greatest game, you can tel the quality is a little on the lower, however even with that you have a full structure and system inside of it. voice acting is mid, some good some bad, most of what you expect, best part about it is its dedication. look I am not saying its the worst, the gameplay is actually very fun, the characters are diverse, the whole game itself is what we can ask for, in a Mafia turn based game. weapons actually adorn your characters, unique system to strive to max out your character, even the cast of characters you can have on your team or even against it are all voiced. is it worth its price? no but it is worth its sale price. to try and not only that but if you like turn base and rpg its actually a good game to just give a shot. personally even if im the only one, i do enjoy it and wanted to see more from them even in the first appearance of their start up. i still want them to learn from this whole game, improve it, work on it, and create the best mafia game in the world. with that said if you were to ask me how far that is, they would be 10% of the way of using their full potential. they got the right ideas, right type of gameplay, style, and whats more is it is 3D. but if you were to try this, id try it on sale and then make a judgment of what it could be. because personally i do find myself playing it from time to time. overall socre? 5/10 turn base game. 6.5/10 mafia game. i expect them to continue to iron out the stuff like weird animation, voice acting, and add more to it like car collection, whiskey creation, goon stories, and more historical bases. then they may get their 8/10. but thats only if they were to take that potential they can have and put it to work.
I think that this game gets too much hate I understand that there can be some serious bugs and game breaking glitches. But this game is seriously so much fun and completely addicting.
Wer das Thema "20er Jahre Mafia" und taktische Kämpfe (so ähnlich wie bei "XCOM" oder "Jagged Alliance") mag, der kann auch hiermit seinen Spaß haben. Die meisten Unterhaltungen finden in Textform statt. Der Wirtschaftsteil beschränkt sich bis jetzt im Großen und Ganzen darauf, möglichst viel Geld zu machen, um möglichst gute Ganster anheuern zu können. Sollte das neue Entwicklerteam nach der langen Entwicklungspause noch das eine oder andere verbessern und erweitern, könnte "Empire of Sin" noch mehr Spaß machen. Ich spiele seit 16 Stunden und bin bislang zufrieden.
Excellent to see, that this game was brought to back in life at 2025! Played it again for couple of hours and the enjoyment is still there. Hopefully it gets treated well, as it deserves and there will be continous support from developers. There is lot of potential and possibilities to expand this game! EDIT: After the last update and DLC, it seems everything related about new updates / news has disappeared and it also seems that there wont be any continued support for this game. That is why I don't want to recommend it anymore. "Someday - and that day may never come - I'll call upon you to do a service for me." - Don Corleone
its too buggy the game shows you more paths on how to handle stuff but have same outcome but no matter how much i try or how many times i play you get bugged out and cannot enter any building or interact with other character beacuse game says youre in a building while you roam around the map freely and then you just cannot do anything, no restart or redownload doesnt work i tried it buggs out 100% and your save file can go bye bye mainly with mission its all irish to me
