Description from the packaging.

Run Sin City from the Ground Up.

Rule your empire as a straight shooting businessman or a double-dealin' scoundrel in your neon-soaked desert playground. Utilize your ties to the Mob or prove you can make a fortune without their underhanded tactics. Loosen the slots, add decor for ambience, and bring in the Vegas showbiz glitz to attract everyone from the wannabe swingers to the high rollers. Just remember you're not the only game in town...

Build It
Create and build your own casino environment with all the authenticity that only Hoyle can deliver.

Run It
Your management skills are the difference between a money-making machine and a money pit.

Rule It
Use all of the assets at your disposal to continue your reign as the best show in town.

The Tables Have Finally Turned.
Build and run your very own casino, complete with bright lights, free booze, and wallet-sucking slots. Pack a full house by catering to the high rollers with the fat bankrolls, or concentrate on the hordes of desperate desert tourists. Now you call the shots on who goes, who stays, and who helps you build your Vegas Empire.

Features:

Build 8 authentic casinos
Select your casino theme and play against the challengers and pitfalls that come with building the hottest joint on the Strip. Choose from Egyptian to Rock & Roll themes, and everything in between!

Play in actual tournaments
Boost your bank and your ego at the same time. Pull up a seat at a blackjack table in your own casino and take on the clientele in a high-stakes game.

Take on rival casinos
Lure gamblers away with your competitive tools of the trade. Have thugs break their bank, or send in entertainers with flyers to capture their family-oriented customers.

Run behind-the-scenes business operations
Set the stakes and the salaries to maximize your profits.

Don't let the tricksters and card-counting cheats lighten your cash roll. Have security kick the jokers out on their butts!

Love always comes at a price. Convince the newlyweds to make their day memorable while making you more money in the process. Ch-Ching!

Keep the celebs coming to kickback city and the crowds will follow. Make sure they're comped with premium drinks and penthouse suites.

The black socks and white sandals crowd arrive by the busload and eat as much too! Keep your buffet overflowing for the hungry herd.
