OUR
HISTORY

Gangsters has been around longer than you think!
Here's how we got here...

1980's

GANGSTERS gets BORN

  • GANGSTERS begins as an original game played outdoors on summer nights
  • Cherries (aka "the goods" at the time) are made by stuffing grass into sandwich bags (and on occasion flour)
  • Money has only one denomination ($100,000) and is made in-game by a "counterfeiter"
