This is on Mafia Island, Tanzania, hence the gangster reference.

And why Italian specifically?

Well, mafia is originally Italian, thatā€™s why

Wiki
When used alone and without any qualifier, ā€œMafiaā€ or ā€œthe Mafiaā€ typically refers to either the Sicilian Mafia or the American Mafia and sometimes Italian organized crime in general (e.g., Camorra, 'Ndrangheta, etc.).

Manā€¦ We really learn stuff while playing this game, donā€™t we? :smiley:

Thatā€™s the beauty of the game, it does not make sense, but it does.

To be clear, I didnā€™t check the Seychelles. I took the Seychelles clue to create a strong possibility that the place was in Kenya. Now, admittedly, I donā€™t think that type of ceiling was much of a presence in the bars I saw in Malindi, but given the other clues, and given gameā€™s occasional tendencies (e. g., Texas = Bulgaria), I didnā€™t think I should stop looking in Kenya. But I also checked some places in the Mombasa area.

See, Dr Milky understands me.

I admit I go overboard with the first questions sometimes, but I want those points too, you know.

Also, Kenya was unlikely, because I rarely go to the same country twice in a short span. We had the Nairobi mess not long ago, right?

So the thing to do is to check more than one country.

I must not have been in the game for that one. Or was I? I donā€™t remember.

Yeah, Iā€™m not remembering anything about Nairobi. :thinking:

You donā€™t remember this fine neighborhood?

I see some stuff from a couple of years back:

Maybe I missed something.
