Though it is a strategy game, Godfather does not really challenge you like the other top strategy games. After long time of playing it makes a bit boring.

If you are a die hard fan of the Godfather movies i suggest you give it a shot. There is no deal breakers as of the game,but for normal players it seem to be a same old strategy type.
