Story & Setting

Gameplay & Core Systems
As the police are driving, an SUV comes out of nowhere and smashes into the car, setting D-Mobb free. After a quick cutscene, it turns out the person who was driving the SUV was you, and you have now joined D-Mobb's crew. You start off in D-Mobb's crew as a nobody and will have to work your way up, fighting off people from other crews, including D-Mobb's rival, Crow. To aid you in fighting, you can use the environment to hurt your enemy. You have weapons at your disposal, usually a metal pipe, pool cue, and a broken bottle.
