In SuperGang, you lead a mafia team with a killer, dealer, and femme fatale, battling for control of a city suburb. You steal money, deal drugs, and engage in duels resolved by dice rolls and shooting darts with toy pistols. The game offers a unique blend of skill and strategy, with an optional fifth player controlling the cops aiming to arrest gangs.
Who Is This Game For?
SuperGang is aimed at experienced players aged 10 and up who enjoy complex interaction and tactical dice play. It is a medium to heavy game for 3 to 5 players, lasting about two hours. Prior experience with negotiation or dexterity games is beneficial due to its mix of strategy and skill.
How It Works
Each player controls three characters with unique abilities (Variable Player Powers). Players roll dice (Dice Rolling), move figures (Roll / Spin and Move), and negotiate (Negotiation). Duels are decided by dice totals, then players shoot darts on targets representing characters. The game ends when one player loses all characters or controls an entire district.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Pascal Trigaux, Gérard Delfanti, and Gérard Mathieu in 1985, SuperGang combines dice mechanics with physical dexterity through dart pistol shooting. It stands out as a rare game featuring toy guns and blending mafia themes with humor. The duel mechanic is a unique feature.
