ABOUT THIS GAME
The only way out is all in. In THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS you owe the mafia 1,000,000 creds with 10,000 due every night at 22:00. Four tables wait in the low room — Blackjack, Roulette, Poker, and Slots — plus Cherry's Lounge where double whiskey buys focused hands and cigarettes boost slot luck. Every wager spins the clock, and when collection arrives the injury ladder starts counting: a finger, an arm, and finally your life. Bankrupt at any table and the table light goes out. Roll the dice, bluff through poker, bet it all on black, and break the bank — or end up broken.
