About This Game

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.

Forge your own mafia empire from the ground up or swear loyalty to a powerful syndicate. Your rise can be fueled by fear, respect, or careful diplomacy. Align yourself with traditionalist dons, aggressive warlords, or cunning diplomats — each with their own methods and demands. Your chosen path shapes how other families treat you, opening doors to alliances… or painting a target on your back.

Recruit from the streets — loyal soldiers who will follow you into a fight, skilled enforcers to break your enemies, and cunning informants who feed you the city’s secrets. Every crew member has strengths, weaknesses, and a loyalty that can be nurtured or betrayed. Train them to fight harder, arm them with the best weapons money can buy, and deploy them to guard your rackets, escort your convoys, or spearhead assaults on rival turf.

Wrest control of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Richmond — each with unique culture, economy, and dangers. The bustling docks might bring in smuggling opportunities, while Harlem’s nightlife could connect you to influential entertainers and underground contacts. Some areas yield higher profits but draw more attention from police or rivals, forcing you to choose between safe investments and risky high-reward territory.

Every business is a steppingstone to power. Operate legitimate fronts — bars, restaurants, and clothing stores — to launder your money. Behind closed doors, run gambling dens, speakeasies, and smuggling hubs to grow your black-market empire. Place trusted men to guard your assets, intimidate shop owners into paying protection, and crush any attempt to take what’s yours. The bigger your empire, the more enemies will test it.

The Prohibition economy runs on supply and secrecy. Buy and sell alcohol, weapons, and rare goods between boroughs, establishing profitable trade routes that fuel your empire. Protect your convoys from street gangs, rival families, and police blockades. A single ambush can wipe out weeks of profit, but clever route planning and the right muscle can turn trade into your most powerful weapon.

A true boss leaves an impression. Dress to intimidate or charm with tailored suits, polished shoes, and fedoras that mark your status. Arm yourself with pistols, shotguns, and close-combat weapons — each with unique handling and upgrades. Acquire and modify vehicles to fit your style, whether for quick getaways or transporting your crew into the heart of enemy turf.

In a city this volatile, no plan survives contact with reality. Street fights can erupt without warning, allies may request favors that put you at risk, and sudden police raids can cripple your operations. Events unfold dynamically based on your reputation and actions — meaning every choice shapes the world and every mistake leaves a mark.

The first step to ruling a city is cleaning your doorstep. Take out small-time gangs or absorb them into your network. Street punks may seem harmless, but left unchecked, they can disrupt your trade routes, attack your shops, and spread chaos. Strike fast and show the city who’s in charge.

The most dangerous enemies aren’t on the street — they’re in the boardrooms, the hidden backrooms, and the smoky VIP lounges. Rival bosses will size you up, looking for weakness. You can negotiate with them, form temporary alliances, or declare open war. Whether you’re dealing with the old-world honor of the Morellos, the brutal muscle of the Gaglianos, or the silver tongue of the Luccheses, every family plays the game differently.

In a city built on deals and whispers, loyalty is a currency that runs out fast. Keep your crew happy, your allies rewarded, and your enemies close. Fail to watch their ambitions, and you may wake up to find your best man working for your greatest rival — or worse.
