Capone

About

Capone is a 1920s Chicago gangster-themed shooter for DOS and Amiga that asks you to blast through enemies while avoiding collateral damage. You use a mouse or optional light gun to target and fire at rival gangsters, with single player and multiplayer options available. The game’s arcade-style action prioritizes quick reflexes as you navigate streets filled with enemies and civilians, requiring precision to avoid hitting women, children, and pets. The light gun feature was a standout at release, letting players shoot from up to 15 feet away. Though dated by modern standards, its control options and gangster aesthetic made it a niche hit for its time. As an early 90s DOS/Amiga title, it reflects Actionware’s focus on arcade-inspired action games during that era.
