About Omertà: The Five Families, from BoardGameGeek:

Step into the gritty underworld of 20th-century New York City with Omertà: The Five Families, an area-control and action-point game. In this high-stakes game of power, you'll navigate the treacherous landscape as the head of a crime family, vying for control and dominion over the sprawling city. The question looms large: Will you be the one to etch your family's legacy into the unforgiving concrete of New York City's underworld? Each turn starts with a play of a plot card to gain action points - the currency of your authority - which you then strategically spend to strengthen your grip on the city. Recruit and strategically place your capos in key locations, expanding your territory and boosting your coffers with the proceeds of illegal activities. Dabble in legal enterprises, establishing businesses that promise lucrative returns, while dispatching your trusted associates to maintain control. The game isn't just about expanding your empire; it's about playing the political game. Throw caution to the wind as you bribe the police to disrupt your rivals or the newspapers to polish your public image and increase your respect. Amidst the chaos, you need to carefully manage alliances and rivalries with the other crime families, eliminating hostile family leaders who stand in the way of your ascent. -description from the publisher
