INJURIES & DEATH
Healing Injuries
When Vito gets injured, the Health Bar will decrease. The Health Bar will
regenerate over time, but will not refill fully (except partially in Easy mode)
until Vito eats or drinks a non-alcoholic beverage.
Death
Bullets and car wrecks can result
in death. If Vito dies, the game is
over and you restart from your
last checkpoint.
CARS & DRIVING
A huge variety of cars and trucks fills the byways, alleys and garages of Empire
Bay—anything from slick high-end luxury cars to big delivery trucks—and they all
perform at the top of their design capabilities. A huge sedan may be powerful,
but a high performance sports car corners much more effectively. A limo is much
faster than a truck.
Damaged vehicles will be troublesome to drive until you get them repaired.
