Announcing Mugsy, the first interactive computer comic strip for your 48K Spectrum.

You are Mugsy, the Godfather to a gang of hoodlums and your aim is to be the toughest and most powerful gang leader in the city.

Your task involve managing the gang, making lots of money, organising the protection raackets, buying weapons and ammunition but beware, your reign as the Big Boss is rather delicate. If you are too successful a contract will be put out by other gangs to get rid of you!!

You are the decision maker and one wrong move could mean the end! Mugsy gives a totally new direction for thrill-seekers - comic animation, stunning graphics and a full arcade game.

Remember - you are da boss!

Review:

The graphics were superb for the time but the strategy is limited and the arcade sequences simplistic. A ground-breaking product that has not aged well.
