About this game

Capone is an action arcade shooter set in 1920s Chicago. Playing as a lone gunman, you battle Capone’s men through streets and alleys in a side-scrolling game inspired by Operation Wolf.

Gangsters appear from windows and behind buildings, but innocent bystanders—including women, children, and pets—must not be hit. The action also includes a warehouse filled with TNT and a final confrontation inside a bank.

Released for Amiga and DOS, Capone was the first light-gun game for the Commodore Amiga. It supports a light gun or mouse, with mouse play using an on-screen crosshair and button-based firing.
