The boss abilities that the bosses have from the beginning are extremely powerful.

Take control of Chicago's underworld!

The game begins on January 1, 1920. The ultimate goal of the game is to destroy all rival organizations and rise to the top of the Underworld in approximately 13 years, until the end of Prohibition on December 5, 1933.
Hire members to conquer the city, increase and strengthen your stores, and sometimes even win enemy factions over to your side and defeat other factions.

Decide on the region, enemy faction, and difficulty level. If you want to play casually, you can set the number of regions and enemy factions to be small, and aim for domination of Chicago in a short time.

The story begins when the player arrives in the city of Chicago. The objective to rule the city of Chicago is the same, but each boss has a different motive.

▲The buildings with the same color as the player character's color are the stores that he or she currently controls. The more stores you have, the more the city will be dyed in your color.
Buildings located in places where you have never walked before are not known in detail, but by approaching them, you can find out which faction they belong to. Be careful not to approach them unintentionally, as doing so could spark a war.

Raid stores under the control of the enemy faction and take their income.

Strengthen the stores you have acquired to further increase your income. ▲Strengthen security in preparation for enemy raids.

▲You cannot rule the Underworld by yourself. Join gangsters and build a powerful organization.

▲Control of the city requires not only violence, but also negotiations and cooperative relationships between factions. It is important to know who to choose as an ally.

In the city, various disputes and requests, large and small, arise. Depending on how they are resolved, the abilities and relationships of the players themselves, other factions, and gangs will change in real time.

Beautiful cityscape

Empire of Sin takes place in 1920s Chicago. The city, which recreates the period, consists of 10 areas. In this article, we will introduce two areas from the city.

▲South Loop
Located in the center of the entire area, the South Loop is close to the ocean. It is a lively town with old-fashioned restaurants.

Little Italy
Little Italy is characterized by a church in the center of town and a park overflowing with greenery.

The first step toward dominating the Underworld, let's accomplish the mission!

When in doubt about what to do next, open the mission menu. You can see a list of the most recent goals that players can try.

Missions range from indicators of local control, to requests from constituents, to problems that have occurred in the city, and more. Depending on the mission, the player's own parameters and organization may be affected by the chosen action.

The fate of the city of Chicago will be determined by the player's choice of whether to resolve the trouble peacefully or contain it with violence.

The mission can be found in the mission list.

▲Mission "In the Trenches
Hugh Miller, who can be hired as a member of the team from the beginning, asked me for advice on how to find the person with whom I had a history in the military.
