Navigating a single town divided into downtown, residential, and industrial districts, players manage a respect system involving seven gangs. Earning respect unlocks special favors and jobs, while players can trigger turf wars by playing different factions against each other. Answering phones initiates missions within this open, non-linear urban environment viewed from an isometric perspective.
