iphone - Mafia Live!

Mafia Live! (iphone) -

I recently downloaded Mafia Live! for the iphone and became immediately addicted. I was hesitant at first to purchase this game thinking it wasn't my style of game but it was on sale for .99 cents so I figured what the hell. I have to say that this was the best .99 cents I have spent in a long time!

For those not familiar with the game the basic premise is to build your mafia empire by completing jobs and fighting other rival mobs. There aren't any fancy graphics here, in fact, other than a few pictures of weapons and properties the game is primarily text. That may not sound very exciting but trust me, once you start playing this game it is VERY hard to put down. There is something very addicting about leveling up your character and buying better weapons and bigger properties.

The game pits you against rival mobs and you get to fight them in real time. The other mobs, like yours, are controlled by other real players. It is very gratifying to attack and beat another player and collect tens of thousands of their hard earned cash!

I can't recommend this game enough. If you are unsure if you will like this type of game then check out similar apps like iMob and iMafia which are similar but free.

Note: Mafia Live! is now 2.99.
