Setting Background Description

The Gangsters of Bombay takes players into the vibrant and tumultuous streets of Bombay (now Mumbai) during the late 20th century. This period, particularly the 1980s and 1990s, was marked by a significant rise in organized crime, with various gangs vying for power in a city that was rapidly modernizing but also deeply rooted in tradition.

Bombay has a rich history, being a crucial trading port since the 17th century and a melting pot of cultures, languages, and religions. During the British Raj, it transformed into an industrial hub, drawing in migrants from across India. By the 1980s, the city was rife with economic disparity, leading to the emergence of powerful crime syndicates. Notable figures included Dawood Ibrahim, who led the D-Company, and Chhota Rajan, a rival gangster who emerged from the shadows.

In this game, players navigate through a web of betrayals, alliances, and fierce rivalries, participating in dynamic scenarios that can change based on their decisions. The streets of Bombay are alive with bustling markets, smoky back-alley bars, and the constant threat of violence, making every choice critical for survival and dominance.
