Silent Authority: Blood & Bourbon

Enter New York, 1920: a city pulsing with ambition, corruption, and deadly rivalries.
In Silent Authority: Blood & Bourbon, every street is a prize, every deal a risk, and every ally a potential traitor. From the bustling docks of Brooklyn to the velvet-lit jazz clubs of Harlem, the city is a living organism, breathing, changing, and waiting to be claimed.

You start with nothing but ambition. Recruit loyal enforcers, seize rackets from the shadows, and weave your influence through the city’s underbelly. Every move shapes your legend, drawing the eyes of rival kingpins, crooked politicians, and watchful lawmen. In this world, power isn’t earned, it’s taken, one brutal step at a time.

Blending ruthless empire-building, cinematic real-time combat, and cutthroat underworld politics, Silent Authority delivers a living, breathing city where no two crime dynasties rise the same way. Territories are taken and lost in blood, alliances forged in smoke-filled backrooms and broken in gunfire, and your road to power will be paved with bribes, bullets, and spilled bourbon.

Real-Time Top-Down Combat
Lead your crew of up to 10 members in brutal shootouts. Use the cover system, give tactical commands to your men and outgun rival gangs with an authentic 1920s arsenal: Tommy guns, sawed-off shotguns, revolvers, scoped rifles, Molotovs and dynamite.
