COSCA: Take Over the Mafia is a strategic board game by TLAMA Games about secret bidding, bluffing and mafia influence.
The old Don is dying, and every family in the New York underworld wants his seat. In COSCA, you compete to win the loyalty of the city’s mafiosos before the week ends. The game uses dice in an unusual way: they are your henchmen, but they are never rolled. Instead, you secretly choose the symbols you want to use. Those symbols send henchmen to locations, where they collect resources such as money and guns. You then spend these resources in hidden bids to win over mafiosos. Because bids are secret and loyalties can shift, every round becomes a tense mix of planning, reading opponents and taking risks.
How do you play the game?
Across seven rounds, players assign henchmen, gather resources and bid for mafiosos. If your dice match the required symbols, you can enter the auction. The highest hidden bid gains influence, but overspending can leave you exposed in later rounds. After the final day, the strongest mafia family wins.
