About the game

What you do in a play session

New York, 1926: Prohibition is in full swing, and two mafia families are fighting for control of the lucrative illegal booze market. In MOB: Big Apple, you take on the role of a capodecina, leading your henchmen in a strategic battle through the city streets. The game blends worker placement, area influence, and a unique dice system that determines your actions. Each round, you roll two dice (one black and one white) to decide where and how many men to send. You might load crates of contraband, eliminate rivals, or even manipulate the District Attorney. But beware: your opponent is doing the same, and at the end of each round, clashes are inevitable. After three intense rounds, whoever has the most crates of alcohol controls the city. Do you have what it takes to become the next Capo dei Capi?
