To give you a better understanding of who we are and why we're building this game, here's a conversation with one of Pentito's founders.
Q: For those who aren't familiar with Pentito yet, what is the heart of this game?
A game that revives the nostalgia so many players have been longing for, while capturing that same magic for a new generation. Pentito was created from a deep passion for Mafia-style MMORPGs, built by players, for players, bringing back everything we've missed in other games.
Q: What makes Pentito different?
The vision. Pentito doesn't belong to a corporation, it belongs to its community. Our testers and players hold the keys to this world, and their feedback actively shapes the game. While many projects chase commercial gain or slip into pay-to-win systems, Pentito remains rooted in passion, fairness, and loyalty. Here, players are heard. Always.
Q: What has surprised you most during development?
The dedication of our community. Many of us juggle fulltime jobs, yet our developers work around the clock. Bugs don't survive long, suggestions are considered within days or even hours, and the boundary between players and developers is nearly invisible. That connection is what keeps Pentito alive. Every voice matters.
Q: Describe Pentito in one sentence.
A dream turned reality, built with passion, relentless effort, and visible progress every single day. Even during testing, there is always something new, something fixed, something improved. It's unbelievable, and we couldn't be more proud of this fast growing community.
Q: And what about the future of Pentito?
We're only getting started. As long as players continue to support the world we're building, development won't stop. We'll keep investing, keep expanding, and keep pushing Pentito forward. And yes, the future goes beyond the browser version. We're already hard at work on a mobile app for iOS. Soon, the underworld will fit right in your pocket.
Q: Where do you hope to see Pentito in five years?
Our goal is to create a game that welcomes both casual players and hardcore strategists, two worlds coming together, each making their mark. We want Pentito to be a game worth choosing above all others: fun, challenging, and unforgettable.
We want to express our deepest appreciation to every single member of the Pentito community. Your dedication, your suggestions, your endless flow of feedback, the bugs you've helped us hunt down, and above all, the fun, supportive, and welcoming atmosphere you bring every day, mean more to us than words can capture.
Pentito is not just a game. It's a shared dream brought to life by all of you. Every message, every test, every idea, every moment of laughter in the community pushes us forward and reminds us why we started this journey in the first place.
On behalf of the Pentito founders,
Righello, Life & Donna
