Product Description

Designer Eric Lang, known for his "dudes on a map" games, describes The Godfather: Corleone's Empire - a standalone big box board game with high-quality miniatures - as "thugs on a map". In short, the game is a streamlined, confrontational worker placement game filled with murder and intrigue. In long, you play as competing Mafia families who are vying for economic control of the organized crime networks of New York City, deploying your thugs, your Don, your wife, and your heir on the board to shake down businesses and engage in area-control turf wars. Money, rackets, contracts, and special advantages (such as the union boss) are represented by cards in your hand, and your hand size is limited, with you choosing which extra cards to pay tribute to the Don at the end of each of the five rounds. At the end of the game, though, cash is all that matters, and whoever has the most money wins. The game also features drive-by shootings in which enemy tokens are removed from the board and placed face-down in the river. The Don of that family member must play cards to fish their guys out of the river and return them to duty on the New York battlefield.

Take control of one of the most powerful crime families in New York City

Get ready to make an offer that can’t be refused.

In The Godfather: Corleone’s Empire, players control of one of the five different crime families in 1950s New York City. Everyone is vying to take over the main operations, should Don Vito Corleone meet an untimely end.

Over the course of four acts, players send out Family Members and Thugs to shake down businesses in order to earn money, illegal goods, and other benefits. They battle over territory in Turf Wars and get special bonuses for completing jobs for the Don. Players can add new Allies to their family business, if they’re willing to pay heavy bribes, but having the most money is the key to victory. They have to decide how much they’re willing to spend. During each act, it’s also necessary to pay a tribute to Don Corleone, so players have to launder their money away if they want to be able to keep it.

After four acts, players receive bonuses for the Turf they control and the jobs they’ve managed to pull. The family with the most money will inherit the business of Don Corleone and take control over New York City.

    Well designed and produced game that deserves more love than it got.
    The Godfather: Corleone's Empire is probably not getting the love it should. This game by Eric Lange, came out shortly before his much more hyped Rising Sun. In many ways, Rising Sun stole the attention from this game which I think unfortunately is not getting the love it deserves. First released the game was 80$, and it is currently down to about 37$ which is about what we paid. For 37$ or around that, the game is a bargain as the components, with the exception of the cards, are top notch. It is disappointing that such a beautifully produced game really cheaped out on the cards. The board, the little tin money cases and of course the mini-figs are top quality. The game is essentially area control and worker placement with a Godfather theme. Does the game tie into the movie or book in anyway, no, but the art and the cards and the terminology do give it a good theme from the movies and the book. The game plays better with 3-4 people. You can have very good two player games, but the game works much better with 3-4 people, but two is fine. The mechanics are very smooth. The game play is very straightforward and fairly easy to understand and again it plays very smooth, it is a well designed game. It comes across very balanced. This game ended up being much better than I thought it was based on the first reactions to it. At the current price it is a bargain.

    I've been chasing this game for 3 years. Finally, I could grab it and it has just delivered. I'm head over heels! A beautiful strategic gameplay with a lot of things to do. The old school mob war, territory control game with immense action, tactics and strategy. A beautiful combination with a Godfather label. What else can a man ask for? A full 5 star review, get a copy. You won't regret it.
