Description
In the gritty world of Five Points: Gangs of New York, you'll navigate the dark underbelly of 19th century Manhattan as a powerful political faction leader. This game of struggle for control is set in a time when gangs and corrupt politicians ruled the streets, and the right moves could make or break your influence. With 3 to 5 players, you'll manipulate gangs and politicians to seize control of the city, using your resources to gain influence, win elections, and shape the destiny of New York. As you bid for control and make strategic moves, you'll have access to important buildings like Tammany Hall and the Board of Elections, which can provide special powers and influence. Your goal is to build a lasting political machine that will affect the city's politics for over 100 years. With a playtime of 75 to 108 minutes, you'll need to make every move count to come out on top in this game of area majority and influence.
