Mafia Wars Las Vegas – Good Home Cooking at Your Own Restaurant
Sep/100
I don’t know about you but one of my favorite parts of any casino is the restaurant. Well, is suppose I should say the restaurants because most real world casinos have multiple restaurants catering to all price ranges. You can go to the buffets, which are a smorgasbord of everything that you can think of or a five star extravaganza where you are waited on hand and foot like you are a king.
Mafia wars Las Vegas keeps the look and feel of the top casinos on the strip alive with the realism of owning your own restaurant.
You can open your fine dining experience following the completion of the job “Convince A Restaurateur To Leave Town”, and like all of the rackets…oops, I mean businesses in Sin City it requires a few things to build.
Here is a complete breakdown of exactly what it takes to set up your own eats joint and how much you can make from providing the service.

How to Construct Your Casino Empire in Mafia Wars Las Vegas
Sep/100
What would a criminal empire in Las Vegas be without owning a casino? The Mob was part of the Las Vegas scene for years. It was not until the federal crack down that criminal element was removed. Actually if you think about it the criminal element was not removed, one type of criminal was exchanged for another. Mob criminals were replaced with mega-corporations, which are criminals in their own way.
Mafia Wars Las Vegas is somewhat different when it comes to owning property. In the old Mafia Wars game scheme you bought individual properties to build wealth. Those were the days when Mafia Mike’s was king. With the makeover of properties there have been major changes and players no longer buy individual lots and build properties on them.
In the new scheme of property ownership players must first unlock the property by completing certain missions. In Mafia Wars Las Vegas your casino empire consists if 5 separate parts and these parts are unlocked one per district. Completing districts is not enough however. Just because the building is unlocked does not mean that it is ready to use in your empire. Think of it as building a real casino.
First you must unlock the site by getting a permit to build, you will then need construction materials. These materials include
- Cinder Block
- Steel Girder
- Concrete
- Construction Tool
- Special Item for Each Separate Building
The materials that you need can be acquired via free gifts or as loot from jobs. The special items are looted from the job that unlocks each building.
The casino is now and has always been the backbone of Las Vegas. In Mafia Wars Las Vegas you get just a small taste of what it is like to own one of the mega-casinos that dot the Strip. Each district that you complete unlocks one of the 5 distinct parts of the casino complex. You casino consists of the following components.
- Slots
- Table Games
- Restaurant
- Poker Room
- Hotel
Other components needed to effectively run you casino include the following.
- Slot Machines
- Casino Dealer
- Chef
- Poker Table
- Bellhop
In this series of articles we will dig into the property aspect of Mafia Wars Las Vegas and expose every aspect of the casino. Make sure you read every installment and you will know everything that there is to know about Mafia Wars Las Vegas and the big money maker of your empire.
