2021-09-29
Mafia Inc. Idle Tycoon is an exciting and somewhat addictive idle Tycoon game where you play the role of a temporary gang manager. After the former manager joins a rival gang named The Black Wolf Gang for unknown reasons, your boss decided to make (Luciano) the temporary manager of The Gunner Gang while also assuring you the position of a formal manager if you can get the jobs done.
The game is pretty straightforward, and even new players to idle Tycoon games will find it easy to navigate and get the hang of this game in no time. However, for players who still find it tough, this brief but detailed beginner’s guide contains the necessary features that will help players become familiar with the game in no time. So without wasting further time, let’s dive into it.
Taking over Businesses
Running a gang is no piece of cake, especially when you have a lot of businesses to look after or, more like, take over. One of the most important and fun aspects of this game is that you get to take over different types of businesses. Some of them are Bars, Casinos, Tattoo shops, Brothels, Lotto Centers, and Protection Fees.
Taking over these businesses is how you make tons of money for your gang, and it’s insane the amount of money you can make in this game. Players can choose to take over a business or buy it, and after spending hours on this game, it is best you fight for every business takeover. Fighting to take over businesses lets you save cash as they can be incredibly expensive.
Upgrading and Automating Business
After taking over or buying a business, it will instantly start to generate revenue quite alright. Still, you will have to upgrade it to multiply the revenue that is being generated. Without automating the revenue collection, players would have to manually click on the cash icon above a business to collect the generated cash.
However, automating the collection of cash can be done with a Capo. Once you place a Capo as a revenue collector in any business, they will automatically collect the cash. It will continue to multiply until you decide to cash out the entire money generated. Most businesses have a limit of upgrades, while some do not (depending on how much cash you have).
Moving to different streets
The game kicks off in one street, where you’ll be taught the game’s basics. However, after dominating all the businesses in a street, you will be moved or somewhat promoted to a new street. Moving to a new street resets all of the cash you have earned. The good thing is only your cash earned is reset to zero, while your other currencies remain the same.
Understanding Capo(s)
Capo(s) are your gang leaders, and they’re also a very important aspect of the game. Each Capo can be assigned to a handle and collect the generated cash of a business after it has been taken over. If you don’t have the cash to buy a business peacefully, you can use your Capos to fight against the enemy gang and take over the business by force.
Capos are also ranked in tiers such as Rare, Epic, and Legendary. Rare Capos are less powerful and will be recruited at the early stages of the game. They are usually 2-star gang leaders and not very effective and tough enemies. Epic Capos are stronger than Rare Capos as they possess more durability in battles and are more likely to deal more damage to enemies in a takeover gunfight. Epic Capos are usually 3-star gang leaders and are easily acquired in this game. Lastly, there are the Legendary Capos, these are the overall gang leaders, and they possess incredible abilities if owned.
They are more powerful than Rare and Epic Capos, and if assigned to a business, the business revenue is tripled instantly. Legendary Capos are very hard to get, and if you don’t want to be patient, you can decide to spend real money to get them. Surprisingly though, Epic Capos, if well upgraded, can become almost as powerful as Legendary Capos, but then again, if Legendary Capos are upgraded up to similar levels, they become even more powerful.
Using the Game Store
The game store is of two types: Safe and Shop.
SAFE BOXES: This is where players can get a free safe, golden safe, or mystery safe. Free safes are given to players if they log in to the game to play online. If you play online, you can get a free safe after a limited countdown which gives you the chance of getting either a Rare, Epic, or Legendary Capo.
On the other hand, Golden safe contains both rare and Epic Capos, but the chances of getting Epic Capos are higher but not guaranteed. Mystery safe is the most valuable safe in the shop as it only contains Epic and Legendary Capos. Opening a Mystery safe gives you the chance of getting a Legendary Capo but does not guarantee one. Players would have to open the Mystery safe up to 10 times to get a guaranteed Legendary Capo.
Free Safes costs nothing to open. Golden Safe costs 20 diamonds, while Mystery Safes costs 50 diamonds to open.
CASH BOXES: It is incredibly easy to generate cash in this game, and if you find it hard to do so, you can read our tips and tricks for ways to triple your cash. However, if you’re in dire need of cash, you can spend diamonds and get a certain amount of cash for a limited time.
DIAMONDS: These are the only items in the shop that can be purchased with real money. Diamonds are also the most valuable currencies in the game and are also the hardest to get. You can either buy them from the shop with real money or be awarded for completing missions in the game and dominating the streets.
Fight Mode and Energy Rewards
Fight Mode is a different mode where you go head to head with other gang leaders in a gunfight to win energy rewards. These energies are highly important because they are the only things that can be used to upgrade Capos in the game. This has made Fight Mode one of the most important and interesting modes in the game, as you can barely progress or complete missions fast without upgrading your Capos.
Conclusion
We hope our brief beginner’s guide has given you a detailed analysis of the game’s features and modes. Mafia Inc. Idle Tycoon offers simple gameplay with easy-to-learn controls that mostly involve lots of screen tapping due to the constant upgrading of Businesses and Capos.
