Description

In 1920's Chicago, two things are certain: prohibition has the whole population clamoring for a drink and there's only one man who can supply it - Al Capone. Secret bars all over town are making back-alley deals with Capone's thugs to get the booze they need to satisfy their thirsty patrons and keep themselves in business.

Capone: The Business of Prohibition combines card drafting, auctions, anything-goes trading, and set collection. Each player is the proprietor of an underground speakeasy and bids on trucks of booze coming in over the course of the evening to get the hooch they need to satisfy their eager patrons.

There are no turns.

Play is centered around negotiation - does someone have a bottle you need? Make them an offer. Can't fill the order of one of your patrons? Maybe another bar can. And through it all, Capone will be keeping tabs on the operation, so be sure to keep him happy.
