A Game of Gangsters
The Roaring 20s joins the Precis Intermedia family. It was originally published in 1981 by Yaquinto Publications.

The Roaring 20s is an exciting, fast-paced game where players seek victory by accumulating the most wealth. Each player acts as a crime boss, receiving money from his speakeasy, attempting to pull big jobs, hijacking other players' loot, and sending out hit men to even up old scores. One player acts as the police commissioner each turn, who is charged with stopping crime as thrilling high speed chases find crime bosses running through road blocks and using choppers to knock police cars out of the chase. Or, the police commissioner can turn crooked and take bribes and make deals with the mobster players. It is all part of the fun and excitement in this game that allows you to relive that famous part of history known as the Roaring 20s!

Featured in OMNI magazine's Top 10 Games from 1981... "We found this to be easily learnable and enjoyed by people who aren't game nuts. Most games we checked had long, involved rule books and required some wargaming experience."

Featured in GAMES magazine's Favorite 100 Games from 1981... "The Roaring 20s recreates the era of running boards, low-brimmed hats, and tommy-guns in this car chase game. Players take turns as mobsters or corrupt policemen, and try to make crime pay. Easily learned, but strategically subtle, this game is best with four or more playing."
