Gangster is a single screen shooter using a LightGun where you play the role of a Downtown Cop who has been assigned by your boss to prevent a big prison escape over three screens.

Shooting police cars, hostages, or running out of ammo also loses a life. The three screens contains the following: Jailbreak: Viewed from a 1st person perspective as you are standing outside the prison with a huge hole in the wall. You must shoot any prisoner that appears and try to stop them running off the screen. Escape: Viewed from above, any escaped prisoners are now driving around the roads to get to a rendezvous at Charlie's Bar and you have to shoot the cars while avoiding shooting police cars. Rendezvous: Viewed from a 1st person perspective again, you are now outside the bar and you have to shoot any prisoner that appears in the windows while avoiding shooting any hostages that appear.
