### ! Roadmap !

Planned content:

* New Collectible Story Cards
* History of the Results

## Easter Eggs

The game has a few nods to the famous Super Mario franchise:

* Two gangster profile photos look a little like the Mario Bros.
* The word "Goomba" is mentioned - describing the Don's gangsters.
* One of the Collectable Cards is called "Mushroom Bros."

In the Halloween Special (Oct 27 - Nov 5, 2023), the restaurant can get infested with the ghostly apparitions of dead mobsters. It's clear, Who you're gonna call?.
