Mob Rule (Platinum Edition) Review
When I first bought the game, I was a little skeptical. It was actually the first PC game I ever bought. The original edition was made around 2000-2001.
The gameplay is different from the newer pc games, because it's more or less formatted like an "old school" video game.
The controls are easy to navigate with your keyboard OR mouse, the movement is simple but amusing because of the comedic element, the missions are hard enough to get your attention but they aren't so hard to where you get frustrated. It's challenging while entertaining.
MACMILLAN Mob Rule Platinum (Windows)The sound effects are hilarious and the "underlined sex, drugs and violence" themes are totally intriguing while being hilarious. I laugh the whole time I play this game. When it first came out, I paid around or for it *if i'm not mistaken* and I'm about to buy it again, because I lost it in the last move I made.
One of the BEST DISCONTINUED GAMES EVER!
I LOVE IT!

Product Information
The era of prohibition in America saw organized crime rise to new heights and the establishmentof criminal families that frequently fought with each other in bloody mob wars. There was a lot at stake in this a dog-eat-dog world of crime. Fortunes could be made if you controlled all the: gambling, booze distribution, prostitution and protectionrackets in your neighborhood.
But you were never safe for long, there were always new guys coming along to muscle in on your turf. Guys that would just as soon drown you in a cement mixer as give you the time of day. Your quest to become theKing Pin amongst your peers takes you to five different cities. Starting in the suburbs of quiet little old Hick Town, on to the inhospitable Cripple's Bend, then halfway across the world to Rangoon in Burma, back to the Southern parts of the U.S. inDead Dog Ditch and finally to the Mecca of organized crime - - Capitol City. Every city presents a unique challenge as you have to overcome the natural hazards already there and still carry out the demands of the Godfather.

Using your gang of Workers, Gangsters, Undesirables, Thugs, and Fixers you start by constructing a power base in a city which youultimately hope to expand into an empire by controlling all the blocks in the city.

Great Cult Classic - Ryan D. Scott - Indianapolis, IN, USA
This game may not be the best graphically or have as many options as most games nowadays but this was one of the first games to change the micromanagement strategy of gold and wood which paved the way for newer ideas and thinking. This game has a somewhat steep learning curve but if yous tick with it you can become very good. Some game faults are that money carries over between levels, makes game very easy if you know about it but very hard if you don't notice it, the oldness of the game means computers can't actually be smart and have better strategies they get resources even if they are not producing them and just get more on higher difficulty levels, this makes for hard play until you are more experienced and then makes for very simple play. No skirmish or online multiplayer but the price is so low that if you have the extra cash you should give this classic a try!
Mob Rule Review - J. Sparks -
The game is pretty fun, but you are never really allowed to just build an empire and play. The "Boss" always has very specific goals for you to reach and at times the game doesn't recognize that the goal has been reached and you have to start completly over.
