Fighting and driving are the main things you do in Gangstar: New Orleans. The left key is used to move vehicles and characters. The right keys are used to do things like increase or decrease vehicle speed, hide, or attack. The game has an auto-aiming system that lets players in the classic mode just reload and attack without having to shoot.
Gangstar New Orleans takes players to a very attractive world: New Orleans in the 1970s and 1980s. It's a beautiful and mesmerising time and place. But people say that this city is where criminals live. Players will go on adventures in the American port city of New Orleans. There are big fights between different cultures in that city. People in New Orleans come together, and drugs, alcohol, and guns are used to keep the peace instead of the law.
You are a strange, anonymous, and unknown traveller in this trap city. You have to beat the racing team and the bad cops on your way to the top of the gangster world, but you can't give up any of your tricks if you want to build your own empire.
