American Villainy is a multi-chapter crime simulation game where you create a player and find yourself in the shoes of a criminal trying to move up the ranks.

Chapter 1 features 3 different cities as well as a prison introduction setting.

A Black Market is unlocked late in Chapter 1 that opens up a wide selection of real world weapons for the player to use while breaking the law inside cities.

Chapter 2 takes the player to 3 new cities as well as inside a simulated computer terminal where some hacking is needed to unlock parts of the story as well as the opportunity for the player to purchase a house to use as a base of operations.

Another Black Market is opened up for the player where additional weapons and gear can be found.

The game uses a mix of Sim and RPG elements with an option to change the game to a more fantasy-esque RPG format that will be further expanded in later chapters.

Each chapter features 3 different cities, a continuation of the storyline and a "mini-game" which incorporates a new type of gameplay.

American Villainy isn’t a fast paced, graphic intense gaming experience. This is a game that you can walk away from and come back to when you have the time, without feeling like you’ve missed something. But when you are playing, every action you take has a meaning and can mean the difference between getting one step closer to your goal or seeing your valuable time gone because you didn’t notice your health was too low to pull off an attempted murder.
