In the 1980s, Sicily was the battleground for what would become known as "The Great Mafia War," as various mob families vied for dominance over southern Italy.

In La Famiglia: The Great Mafia War, you and your teammates (in a 2 vs. 2 format) will compete for control of Sicily. Choose from six distinct mafia families, each with unique abilities. The game unfolds in two phases: the planning phase, where you develop your strategies and deploy fighters and secret orders to the board, and the combat phase, where you reveal and execute these orders. Use your fighters and bombs to seize control of as many regions as possible. The combat system is both simple and innovative, offering a thrilling psychological battle. The team that best coordinates their abilities and strategies will rise to dominate Sicily.

La Famiglia is an exceptional team game, featuring asymmetric abilities and a variable setup that ensures enduring excitement and challenge.
