For a game set over a century ago, historical accuracy and authenticity are crucial. To ensure this, Professor John Dickie, an expert on the Cosa Nostra, was consulted. After reviewing the video materials of “Mafia: The Old Country,” the expert praised the game, highlighting the authenticity of the initiation scene, the protagonist’s believable past as a miner, and other detailed depictions. He noted only one significant error: the presence of a volcano in the western part of Sicily, where the mafia originated, instead of the east, attributing this to artistic license.
