Each player runs a deck of gangsters split into four families, each family granting a unique ability. The goal is to assemble the most valuable crew by collecting matching pairs (same family, same value) so you can claim the next higher‑valued gangster of that family. When a pair is completed, you place one of the lower cards into your play area, building a tableau that reflects your influence. Family abilities let you climb the value ladder faster, but they also consume extra tableau slots, forcing you to weigh rapid growth against limited options. The game blends deck/bag building – you draw from a common pool and add to your deck – with hand management, as every decision to play or hold a card shapes the tempo. Open drafting shows up during the draw phase, where everyone sees the same pool of cards and picks freely, adding a subtle competitive tug for resources. With 30‑minute games, simple rules (weight 1.8/5) and only a handful of components, Famiglia is perfect for fans of short, strategic duels, mafia‑themed humor, and tactical collection. If you enjoy card games that demand planning without a long time commitment, this title packs a lot of fun into a small box. ## FAQ ### How many players can play?
