Devs clearly into the subject matter, Authenticfeeling presentation, Sim elements are fun to start, Combat fundamentally solid, Varied bosses and crew members, Missions can take unexpected turns
Sim elements ultimately lack depth, Dumb AI holds combat back, Wars are too easy to game, Replayability likely limited, Still lots of bugs to squash
Empire of Sin is a sincere love letter to a fascinating moment in American history and delivers all the style, swagger, and Tommy-Gun-inflicted violence you'd expect. Unfortunately, somewhat shallow sim elements, pushover AI, and a serious lack of polish...
