A Steam reviews, Luna, reviews, “… This game doesn’t just let you play a gangster, it dares you to become one.” But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Leonpur, another stream reviews writes, “Not Quite the Experience I Hoped For… feels less like a PC game and more like an interactive movie.” Ultimately, Mafia: The Old Country delivers a gorgeous, story-driven experience that will resonate most with long-time fans of the series. It captures the spirit of its predecessors while filling in the lore with style, even if its restrictive design and recycled mechanics keep it from achieving true greatness. For players seeking a dramatic, mob-themed narrative, this is a ride worth taking.
