The Godfather: Five families
By Alba Tizón-Braña
About the game
• “The Godfather. Five families” is available free on Yahoo Games.
• The player’s goal is to become a successful and respected gangster by acquiring more businesses and “respect” areas.
1. Game start:The game is well-structured. First of all you get a fast mission to get
used to the environment of the game.
You get hints and instructions from a character who’s going to be your guide thoughout the game. This character helps you to stay focused on the missions.
2. Character creation: After this fast mission, you get to create your own character. First of all you must choose which of the five families you are going to work for.
Secondly you pick your gender and you create an alias.
3. Accomplishing missions: from that point you start getting missions.
There is a mission archive where you can check all your missions and the ones to come.
They give you a lot of information but still…
• Although I get lots of hints, there is too much information and I don’t know where the focus should be.
• Should I build restaurants and factories? Should I attack rivals? Should I train myself to fight better?
• There are too many options and the focus is not clear.
So, in short…
• “The Godfather.Five families” gives the player a lot of guidance on small events but doesn’t give him/her a clear focus.
• The start environment is too complex and it’s difficult to master it.
• It doesn’t get hooked the novel player like me, because I don’t know whether I’m doing it right or wrong. I think the start should be more gradual, so the newbies can master it.
