NEW UPDATE NOW ONLINE

This update leaves just the "Heat"-related (law enforcement) sections to implement (ETA: within the week) for the Demo to be complete, but it's completely playable as is--it just means you get an easier ride for a few days more!

SO, WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?

Think Vito Corleone in his younger days, around the time he's struggling to find his way in the world and first meets Clemenza and Tessio--and decides to kill the Black Hander, Fanucci, rather than submit to the will of another above his own.

The difference is, YOU play the lead role in this story. Vendetta #1 "Rise of a Gangster" will cover the first year or so of Prohibition (of which the available Demo covers the first five weeks), as you establish your reputation, build and protect your businesses and rackets, compete with rival up-and-coming gangsters as well as the old, established gangs, and ultimately aim to carve out your own little empire--and thereby begin to establish the roots of your own Family.

Your destiny awaits! But do you have what it takes . . . ?

Feedback would be very much appreciated. Even if you don't enjoy the Vendetta: Rise of a Gangster story, or the game system system behind it, please let me know why. Many thanks.
