Life of a Mobster

This was actually a really good story. I loved the overall development throughout. I will say though that the ending felt very rushed. I would give this a 9/10.

While not "100% not recommended" (it's more like a meh), after several playthroughs I feel like the cons of this game outweighs the pros. The story is a-ok, I was expecting a stereotypical, noir 20s-40s setting but the story is somehow definitely taking place in the present, which was a little dissapointing (and felt out of place). Another thing I didn't quite like was the game's writing. It's kind of odd, since it's not directed at you, that is, the story is being told as if a third person is narrating it to you, not as if you (the player) are the protagonist of it. My last (and biggest) complain with the game, though, is that it just assumes a lot of things than shouldn't be assumed, like (this is not really a spoiler, it's more like a warning, but...) [spoiler]if you get married into a heterosexual relationship you (or your wife) will get pregnant and have at least one child, no matter if you want it or not. This is an example of something that is painfully assumed and shouldn't, since it's pretty obvious that not all married couples want to have children.[/spoiler] And depending on who you are roleplaying it can greatly affect immersion, like it happened to me. Given that these type of games' key (and only) mechanic is choosing "your own path" something like this is a pretty big flaw and breaks immersion. Writers of these types of games should always try to take for granted as little as possible, I know this is not always a viable option, but in an example like the above it's obvious this basic principle was not taken into consideration. Always ask the player what he/she wants to do.

Great game! Only downside is that it was to short, as I would have liked several more hours of gameplay. In fact I played in all the way thru a 2nd time the day I bought it! Can only hope for a sequel!

[spoiler][strike]果然最喜欢的还是Informant线，结局都好带感，我就是约瑟夫·皮斯通再世！[/strike][/spoiler] 和这个作者其他的作品风格差不多（Life of a Wizard，The Lost Heir三部曲等）。确实比起其他的GOC来说对于角色的描写相对较少（不过还是比早期作品Life of a Wizard好一点，哈哈），所以有的人可能会觉得代入感不强，不过我觉得还好（主要是无所谓哈哈，毕竟我是剧情党）。[b]如果对这方面实在介意的话可以考虑下个试玩看一下。[/b] 阅读量不算大，单词也确实简单。无聊的时候用来消磨时间很不错，结局也很多。 最后，FBI永远滴神！！！[spoiler]但是我真的好喜欢Alex（）然而作者不给机会啊[/spoiler][spoiler]线人结局真的很有感觉，风云落定很久之后的某一天托妻带子的卧底跟邻居回忆往事（虽然对方不信）然后微微一笑，哇我直接脑子里飙出10W字小说[/spoiler]

so heres the problem the person who wrote this clearly went to the bother of learning what a mob story includes , capos ,families protection rackets etc ....... why would you include female mobsters ? i mean a lady beating up two mobsters with a pipe ? its just pandering to everything the genre is not i wouldnt recommend this tbh , its not thats its text based its that its just woke

Great Interactive game. There are plenty of roads to go and the games makes it really easy to guide you to reach the different ways of beating the game. It usually says what skill you require to do certain stuff which helps Average story but it works. Worth 2$ anyway

In my opinion one of the best choice of games titles that they themselves did not make. The game is well written, more gamey than other titles and i felt my choices mattered which has been lacking in some of their titles. After i completed the game the first time i went for a second go right after, somnething i havent done with many of their titles. I have no complaints with this one folks, i highly reccomend if you like these sort of games to pick it up. Maybe on sale, i dont really like how they have been pricing things recently.
