Empire of Sin will also let you choose if you want to want to rule as a king or queen, so bonus points there. You can own the most successful businesses, become the most notorious gangster in the city, or if all else fails, just gun down anyone who thinks they can do better. The last thing you’ll have to decide in Empire of Sin is how you want to win the Windy City. No word yet whether you’ll have to face the mobs most dangerous enemy, the IRS.
It looks like espionage will also play a large role as you’ll have to deal with moles in your organization. Alliances will have to be made and broken, the law will need to be paid off, and take advantage of the black market to help secure your rise. On a larger scale, you’ll need to manage your relationship with the other Dons and members of the establishment. I’m way on board with that mechanic as it could place much more value on your soldiers and increase the impact of their deaths. You’ll need to “build a strong chemistry within your crew to maximize combat damage.” From the sounds of it, it almost seems similar to the relationship system in the newer Fire Emblem games.

Paradox is promising an impressive cast of characters to interact with. You’ll need to take on rival leaders by expanding and taking enemy territory by force. Like any good mafia boss, you’ll also need to recruit and train loyal capos to help you secure your position. You’ll need to set up your business with illicit operations like speakeasies, union skimming, or casinos. Cosa NostraĮmpire of Sin will feature randomly generated starting conditions, forcing players to think on their feet as they scrape and claw their way to the top. Players will build their empire from the ground up as one of 14 distinct bosses. They’ve teamed up with Romero Studios (headed by industry legend John Romero of Doom fame) to create Empire of Sin, a character-driven strategy game set in 1920s Chicago. Now they’re tackling something a little different. From Crusader Kings and Europa Universalis to Stellaris, they have a history of great grand strategy games under their belt. Paradox Interactive is no stranger to rich, historical settings for their games.
