1923 Cotton Club

New York, 1923. While Prohibition holds the country in its grip, a club opens in Harlem that will make history. Behind its doors jazz is playing, illegal liquor is flowing and the stars of the moment come and go. You take charge of such a club and try to lure the city's most famous and most influential guests to your place. To succeed, you need friends in the underworld. You look for partners who can get you contraband, you take out loans to spruce up your venue and you bring in talented musicians who get the crowd dancing. Every choice you make decides how big your name becomes in the world of jazz clubs. In 1923 Cotton Club you play up to six rounds. With three pawns you choose which actions you take each time: making improvements, taking out a loan, getting a tip-off, working with gangsters, smuggling liquor, hiring performers and attracting celebrities. It is all about reputation. Whoever has gathered the most standing at the end owns the most celebrated club in all of New York.
