Description

Sicilianos is a card game that drops you into the midst of 1930s Sicily, where the early Mafiosos are perfecting the art of laundering their dirty money through legitimate businesses. As a player, you'll be using your cunning and your powerful Familia to invest in small enterprises like laundries, restaurants, and antique shops, all in the hopes of turning your ill-gotten gains into clean cash. But be warned, other clans are gunning for you, and the only way to get your businesses off the ground is to come out on top in a heated clan war. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 45 minutes, Sicilianos is the perfect game for 3 to 6 players looking for a fun and strategic challenge. As you navigate the world of Sicilian organized crime, you'll need to balance your business investments with your clan's muscle, all in the hopes of being crowned the head mafioso. But there's a twist - if you can manage to open one of each of the different business types, you'll be crowned the prince of the island without a fight. First published in 2004, Sicilianos is a classic game of economic strategy and mafia maneuvering that's sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.
