| Inventory Summary |
The Summary is accessed when we enter into Inventory Page, and we may toggle to it any time by clicking on the button at top right of the Inventory.
Next to Summary button there is yellow Wishlist button to show whislist panel, which allows us to post it to ask mafia for items, and remove items from it.
The Summary shows some graphic stats about how it is equipped our Mafia, by:
- items purpose (attack or defense; by default the summary is sorted by attack items),
- category by category of items (Weapons, Armor, Vehicles, Animals),
- also by quality of the items.
Item Quality is a "rarity" meter that indicates how dificult it is to find that item, and it's relative attack and defense. For now there are 5 quality classes: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Superior and Ultimate
The items may be sorted for defense (and back for attack), by clicking on the toggle buttons on the left part of the display.
This summary gives us a quick glimpse of which categories we may need to improve more, or which items we lack most... For example in the screenshot above, the summary clearly tell us that we need to add 375 animals for our mafia to the equipment selected to attack.
To the right of the graphic summary there are some stats about our Mafia Strength, listed by category. Each item you equip has an
Attack and 
Defense stat that adds to your total Mafia Strength. We may click on the arrows next to each item category, to read extended, more detailed stats about the items, as quantities of items by quality, and also which is the best item we have in the category. We may also set a quick filter to display the best offensive (or defense if the summary is set to Defense) items for that category. We may even compare our total Mafia Strength to average that game shows. This may be a way to define ourselves how strong we are.
Below the graphic summary and the Mafia Strength, at the left part, game shows a bit of info from a random player from our Mafia:
- Best item the player has for the items purpose (Offensive, or Defensive)
- Link to watch the inventory of that player
Since we may want to keep our inventory stats private, and not allow to be released this way, we may toggle our inventory privacy from public to private, by loading our game profile page, and using the toggle action placed at bottom of our profile.
At right side, there are suggested some items to improve the Defense and the Attack. This suggestions are based on marketplace items, purchaseable using Reward Points.

If we need to know more details regarding the items we have, how many of them we have, the items we have yet to get .... then we click on "View Items" button.

Sort button
There is a drop down button at top left to sort the items in inventory by:
- Attack stat;
- Defense stat;
- Items name (Alphabetical);
- Giftable ones (showing first the giftable items -sorted again in alphabetical way- and after that the non-giftable ones);
- City Currency (showing the items sorted city by city, and ietms not linked to any city are shown at the end )
- Reward Points (showing first the items purchaseable in Marketplace, sorted by their Reward Points cost)
Item Information
Each item is showed in an information box with the next data:
- Item name
-Item attack and defense stats
- Item quantity and its usage: for example, x10 (5/10) it means that from 10 items available in inventory, 5 are used in attack, and all the 10 of them in defense. The item information display may show enlighted to mean that we have at least one of the items. If it shows shadowed then we have yet to get first one of that item
- For every item that we have stocked there will appear an icon at top right:
if green, it means that the item is used in fights/robs by our Mafia.
- Item Quality:
Common
Uncommon
Rare
Superior
Ultimate
- If the item is giftable
And if we click on item, we will find some extended information about item, for example how we can get it, which is very helpful.

Filter

| Inventory Filter |
We may narrow our view of items, by using the Filter feature. Once we click on the Filter button, it pops up a rich featured set of controls for the criterias to filter the inventory, by:
- Show All items; just the ones we don't own yet ; show just the ones we own (this last criteria enables to select if we wish to show all active and inactive, just active ones or just inactive ones.
- Type: show all items, or by categories, as: Animals, weapons, Armor, Vehicles, Job Mastery, Treasure Chest, Other
For example if we wish to check which Treasure Chest items we own and which we don't, then we would uncheck All checkbox and check on Treasure Chest one.
- Quality: to filter display to show All items or just some of the items by item quality.
For example we may uncheck "All" checkbox, and check Superior and Ultimate checkboxes, to just display these quality items.
-Origin: this filter may help us to find out where an item comes from; its origin as the name says. These sources of items are cities: New York, Cuba, Moscow, Bangkok, Las Vegas, Italy, Challenge Mission (city). Though other sources could be: Gifting, Marketplace, Special Event, Fighting, Robbing, Other.
