Scarface: The World Is Yours
About the Game
Miami in the '80s: gangs, drugs and hookers dominate the scene and a Cuban called Tony Montana rises up to be the most powerful drug dealer, controlling the whole of Miami. This is the story of the 1983 movie Scarface in which Tony Montana dies during a attack from a rival gang on his mansion at the end. The game now puts players in the shoes of Tony a few moments before the gang hits his office. After he successfully defends his mansion, his empire lies in ruins.
Gameplay & Core Systems
By overtaking "Fronts", Tony also increases his control over the current district of Miami. When talking with a dealer or trying to get cop heat down, players has to play a mini-game that determines if Tony is successful and if so, how much he gets for the drugs or how much heat he loses. Respect is earned by increasing Tony's territory, buying exotics and earning "balls" in fights and while driving. This also fills up Tony's 'ball-meter". If he is driving a car he gets balls when making stunts like driving on the wrong side of the road or dodging an incoming car.
Standout Features
- Eventually, however, Tony can set up so-called "Fronts" which are legitimate shops (like a car seller) in which drugs are sold in very large amounts.
- He then can buy "exotics" for his mansion like an expensive vase or a new car with a driver.
- Once this is full he can enter a kind of god mode in which he is invulnerable and has unlimited ammo.
- Grand Theft Auto: As in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City , players is free to roam the city of Miami and there are also some side-missions with racing events.
