Game Summary

First-person gangster-shooting game set during the Prohibition.

Hardware Platform: -Unique or Unknown-

Game Details

Scroll your gunsights around a large 2D city, shooting gangsters (and avoiding innocents/hostages). Arrows indicate in which direction gangsters can be found; if you don't shoot them in time, they draw their gun and fire. You can duck (which covers the screen with a giant picture of you looking alarmed) for a few seconds to avoid the gunfire.

Planned conversion for the NES by CSG Imagesoft was cancelled.

Very similar to Dead Angle.
