### 4/5 — Where’s the gold

*2026-01-03, version 1.12.2*

I enjoyed playing Mafia Empire until I tried to upgrade my clubhouse!!
Please enlighten me! Thanks!

### 4/5 — Zu kurz

*2025-11-23, version 1.12.2*

Das spiel ist eigentlich richtig geil aber es ist viel zu kurz und man kriegt ohne pay to win wenig diamanten und das nervt bitte so schnell wie möglich das Spiel verlängern danke

### 4/5 — In need

*2025-09-17, version 1.10.1.1*

We need more updates please. This game has a lot of capacity and capabilities.

### 3/5 — Stuck

*2025-09-16, version 1.10.1.1*

Decent game as it stands it’s a lil too easy for me but that could be because I’m stuck on the LA level. All map sections were unlocked once but when I came back the Hollywood section has been closed and unable to reach for over a week now. Definitely taking away from the game. Needs a patch or some kind of update.

### 4/5 — Love it …

*2025-09-12*

I, for one, am tired of PvP. I don’t want to compete. I just want to relax and play without someone taking/damaging/managing my playtime. That’s why this game is perfect the way it is.

UPDATE: keeps changing the power amount required to access the Western even tho I keep powering up. It’s fun but can get boring when it won’t allow you to progress.

UPDATE 2: to access the Western ALL of your weapons are Required to be “S class Weapons” (purple), regardless of your overall power level.

### 3/5 — Bien

*2025-08-28, version 1.10.1.1*

El juego está bien pero no entiendo porque ni me deja pasar del boss del nivel de Los Angeles

### 4/5 — Buen juego, divertido!

*2025-08-03, version 1.10.1.1*

Falta actualizarlo en condiciones( imagino que estáis trabajando en ello)👍, voy por el nivel 29 y subiendo, pero ya no me da la opción de subir más edificios de nivel, mejore el cuartel general(ayuntamiento) cuando ascendí a nivel 21 y abrió una zona nueva, sin opciones de construir nuevos edificios. Me ha salido niebla en la zona central, tapando las estatuas de logros, incluso cerrando el acceso a ellas. Por lo demás vi que habéis echo actualizaciones recientes de mejora. Un saludo y espero que lo solucionéis pronto, el juego mola!!💪

### 1/5 — Love it …

*2025-09-25, version 1.10.1.1*

I, for one, am tired of PvP. I don’t want to compete. I just want to relax and play without someone taking/damaging/managing my playtime. That’s why this game is perfect the way it is. 5 stars

UPDATE: keeps changing the power amount required to access the Western even tho I keep powering up. It’s fun but can get boring when it won’t allow you to progress. 3 stars

UPDATE 2: to access the Western ALL of your weapons are Required to be “S class Weapons” (purple), regardless of your overall power level. 4 stars

Update 3: I’m tired of chasing power level requirements that I never meet because they keep increasing. I’ve completed the Western to level 25 ro but can’t complete b/c I don’t have enough power. All is my gear is S class except for my helmet. I’m done. DELETE.

### 1/5 — No update

*2025-09-23, version 1.10.1.1*

Game goes no where!! Buy and get the royal screwed…

### 1/5 — Fun until the game gets stuck after a few days.

*2025-08-26, version 1.10.1.1*

Seems like no matter how many times I beat the “Los Angeles” boss I’m never allowed to play the next level.
Considering that it took me less than a week to get there and now I can’t really advance, I’ve got to give this game an F even though it’s a pretty good game in other respects.

Lame.  You shouldn’t release games that are unfinished.

### 1/5 — Needs heavy update

*2025-07-30, version 1.10.1.1*

Like the game but skipped right over one level to the next and just keeps asking me to repeat the a level that already beat 20x at this point seems unfinished

### 1/5 — The Armory breaks

*2025-06-23, version 1.7.1*

The armory breaks and stops generating crates despite being full of blueprints.

### 1/5 — Gun blue print

*2025-06-14, version 1.7.1*

The blueprint building give the option to upgrade but the money is at zero

### 2/5 — フリーズ

*2025-10-01, version 1.10.1.1*

装備アップデート画面開くと
操作不能

### 2/5 — Bug?

*2025-08-12, version 1.10.1.1*

Nach Los Angeles geht es nicht weiter. Habe den Bosskampf mehrfach, zuletzt mit 7800 Power Vorgabe erledigt. Level danach sagt mir nur "Los Angeles erst beenden". 
Davor war es ganz nett. So leider nicht mehr für mich motivierend spielbar.

### 3/5 — ticket system stuck

*2025-10-10, version 1.12.1*

Get stuck on Asian expedition dose not let me finish also the money bag icon will not except my progress love the game but come on guys first LA now Tokyo

### 3/5 — Stuck

*2025-09-25, version 1.10.1.1*

Seems as though videos for earning gold bars and brown cogs have disappeared along with other things. Also stuck on Los Angeles. I have successfully battled the boss at least 10 times and cannot proceed to the next level.
