Welcome to Paradisum, the most lucrative city in the world.
In the city of Paradisum a war stemming from times long past still rages inside the hearts and minds of two prominent groups. The American Mafia, descendents of La Cosa Nostra who have begun to call themselves Messorum; believe this city is theirs by right of birth. While the Yakuza, descendants of the Akiyama-kai who have also lived in the city for generations, now go by the name of the Kurokawa-gumi and believe that the city was founded by their fore-fathers.
Recently the activity of these groups has increased and the police are finding it harder and harder to stand between these two powerful families.
This is where your fight begins.

3) "Family secrets" – members are not allowed to talk about family business to non-members.
4) "Blood for blood" – if a family member is killed by another member no one can commit murder, in revenge, until the boss gives permission.
5) "No fighting among members" – from fist fights to knife fights.
