Storyline

You’ve always been a street smart guy. Not a genius type with a bright University career, just a regular guy with a good head on your shoulders. Pretty athletic too – you’ve had more than your fair share of street fights in the past few years. Not many people in your town could win a fight against you. You were fighting too often, almost every time you visited the local pub. Apart from fighting and drinking, you had a normal day job. Nothing fancy, but you earned enough to make a living. In 2008, the financial crisis struck. It was pretty tough on you. You lost your job and there was no opportunity to make decent cash. You took several part-time jobs, just to get by. You managed to live like this for 3 years, but you decided you needed to make some changes. You decided to move to the big city and try your luck there.

So there you were, standing at the train station in the big city. You had everything you owned with you – a wallet with just $200 and a backpack with your clothes. It was a rainy day and you were starving. You noticed a small Fish & Chips bar just across the street. As you walked in, you saw that there were just a few people inside: an old couple, 3 construction workers, an old guy in a suit sitting in the far corner and the owner of the bar. You couldn’t see the face of the old man. You ordered your Fish & Chips and sat at the table in the other corner. You started looking through the window – is this the city where you'll have a decent life? Is there an opportunity waiting for you just around the corner? Is life in this city going to be good for you?

The questions were accumulating in your head. Not even 5 minutes went by and some of the questions were answered. A scooter parked in front of the bar and two guys wearing tracksuits and ski masks entered. One of them pulled out a gun and the other one shouted: “It’s a robbery! Everyone stay cool and give us all your money, watches and jewelry”. He pulled out a paper bag and started collecting the cash from the register. He then proceeded to take the valuables from the construction workers – they only had a few dollars. You were completely shocked by the whole situation. Just 5 minutes in the new city and you’re facing losing all your cash. It’s not much, but you can’t afford to lose it, you need it to survive a few days, until you get a job. You realize that there’s only you and the old man in the suit who still hadn’t been approached by the robbers. You looked at the old guy and you could finally see his face… you noticed he was calm. He didn’t panic. In fact, he was smiling a bit. The guy in the tracksuit approached the old man and asked him for his money. The old guy didn’t even say a word. He just gave the tracksuit guy a stare. He slowly and gently said “I am an associate of Don Gambino”. He said it almost silently, but you could clearly distinguish his Italian accent. What’s even more shocking, the guy in the tracksuit suddenly walked away from the old guy’s table, without even a single word.

Now both of the guys in the tracksuits were standing next to your table. They told you to give them your money. You only managed to tell them ”Fuck off, because I don’t give a…”, when you felt a punch landing right on your chin. You fell over. Then you felt a few more punches to the face and a few kicks to your body. The warm blood was running out of your nose and covered your face. Well, you know what they say, there’s a thin line between bravery and stupidity. Obviously you were on the stupid side. Two on one? And they had a gun. What were you thinking? Well, now you’re left without your money and you’ve got a broken jaw. What a way to start a new life, eh?

Before you realize what’s happened, the two guys are already gone on their scooter. Easy loot for them; the whole situation lasted less than a minute. You could hear the bar owner calling the police already. Other people were still in shock and they were just standing there and staring at you. Nobody even pretended to be interested in helping you. You slowly managed to pull yourself from the ground. The old guy stood up to leave the bar. As he walked by you, he stopped. He turned his head, looked at you and said:

“Was it necessary? Not only have you lost your cash, but they beat you up pretty good too."

"At least I stood up for what was mine."

"And you think that's brave kid? That's not bravery. That's just stupid."

"Stupid or not, I couldn't afford to lose my cash."

"Tell you what kid, I admire the fact you tried. And I can see you've got some balls on you. But in this town, brawn isn't everything and you need to be able to think on your feet."

“So what is it I need? Why didn’t they rob you? Is it cash? They knew you had enough to find them and retaliate?“

“No kid. Cash isn’t everything. It's important, but it's not what scared them. They didn’t rob me, because they feared me. See, on the streets, you need to get respect. You need to make them scared of you. You need to have the right connections. That’s how you make them fear you. That's how you survive in this city. That’s how you get power in this city.”

“Connections, huh? How do I get those connections?”
“Hahahaha! Silly boy. You don’t get connections just like that. You need to work hard before you earn the respect of other gangsters. You know what? You look like a good kid. You’re strong and brave. Maybe a bit too impulsive, but I’ll help you. Come meet me tomorrow at this address. I’ll fix a job for you; you’ll be working for me now. Don’t be late. 9am sharp, understood?”

“Yes sir.”
“And call me Don Vincenzo.”
“Y-yes, Don Vincenzo… I’ll be there.”

And so your new life in the big city begins.

Game Objective

The aim of the game is to simply have fun and enjoy playing it.
Nevertheless, there are many game-related areas in which players can shine and achieve greatness.
For some, the aim is to become the leader of the most powerful Gang in the game. For others, it's all about the levelling up race. Other goals possible: being the driver with most races won or fastest lap, controlling the most wealth, having the highest player stats, executing the most hitman contracts, running the strongest Drug Factory, owning most of the 180 game City sectors.

Game Economy

The game economy in Original Gangsters is complex and requires time and strategy to set up a decent passive daily income.

You start the game with just a small amount of pocket cash, depending on the Character Profile you choose.
It is enough to get a basic car and basic weapons, but you should not spend all your money right away.

Crimes

Petty Crimes are the basic source of income but they provide very little money.
They run based on cooldown timers, counting the time between next possible attempt.
Shoplifting, Purse Snatching and Hobo Jumping crimes can net you items which enable you to run Organized Crimes.
Organized Crimes provide much better income but they run on One-time use items, so you can only do them if you have the required item.

Casino

At the Casino you can earn money by gambling.
You can wager on the horses, the payout odds are higher than the risk odds, so mathematically you will be making a long term profit on Horse betting.
Weekly Lottery has an added prizepool of 10000$, so it’s worth buying the tickets, as you might win really big.
Daily Giveaway allows you to find free cash and other valuable items.

First Income Sources

In your first 2 days, your major source of income will be milestone rewards, which will give you 1000$ per level, until level 10.
Reaching level 10 is quite easy, all you have to do is commit the basic Petty Crimes.
The lowest Petty Crimes have between 1 to 2 minutes cooldown, so in fact you can reach level 10 within just 8-10 hours of play.
You can see the full list of rewards in the Game Prizes section.

Starting Tips

Drug Factory construction costs 25000$ and takes 24 hours.

Early on, you want as many freebies as you can get, so consider buying "The Begger" upgrade at the Dark Alley after you've already used your Daily Giveaway. This upgrade gives you an extra use for that day!

Remember to bid on all 3 auctions daily, as those can result in very fortunate findings.

Don't be too eager to spend your cash in weapons or cars early on. You will soon receive both of them via milestone rewards. Be patient.

Keep in mind that making money is not easy and people will not eagerly just help you randomly.
In fact, there is almost no way of transferring cash between players. That however should not discourage you, as cooperation is key to strive.
Consider joining a Gang to get more advice, access to other perks (Garage and Weapons related) and possibly a helping hand from your Gang mates.

Drug Factory

Drug Factory is an important source of money making in the game. You will receive 10 thugs for free when you build it.
They will be producing drugs, even while you are offline. You just have to assign them to Production squad.
When your factory has produced some drugs, you need to withdraw the drugs from the factory and then you can visit the local Drug Market, where you can sell your drugs. Drug Prices vary between each City and they change twice a day. Therefore, there is an opportunity to withdraw / buy drugs in one city, fly to another city and sell for a higher profit. However, be aware, when you carry drugs, each time you use the airport to fly to another city, you risk getting caught for smuggling and losing all your drugs. The potential highest margins can be up to 30%. Even more if you can time and successfully pull off Drug Trafficking crimes on the city you intend to sell. It's a high risk, high reward area of the game. When well managed, it can skyrocket your wealth.

Businesses

Once you have the basics figured out, the next step in getting wealthy is to buy businesses. You can own up to 10 of them.
Businesses give two types of income, and both of them are taxed according to the city you built them on.
First is the basic daily income which is fixed and it's awarded at 0:00 game time.
Second income is from Satisfaction Services, whenever someone actually visits your business to receive Satisfaction points.
Finally, a good way of making money fast is to purchase Credits and then sell them to other players for cash, using Private Auctions.
The value of Credits are always increasing as more players play the game and generate more in-game cash in circulation.

Auctions

Auctions are a great investment, as you can usually win the auctions with 200$ bids, or 500$ in case of lockers, if you get them when nobody else has bid on them. The rewards inside can be worth up to 20000$, and most of the time you will receive really useful stuff.
Main auction can provide higher tier weapons or specific skill exp points.
Antiques have a great value and can be equipped to provide boosts during battles.
Moreover, the antiques can be exchanged as collections at the Museum.
The rewards for collections can be very valuable: cash, items, Special Points and even special items like Morphine Shots and Bribery Cards.
Lockers can contain nothing in the worse cases, but usually they contain a mix of multiple types of rewards.

Player Stats

There are 5 basic player stats in the game. These stats are used in combat.

• Damage – influences the damage you inflict on enemies.
• Speed – influences who attacks first and also if you can manage to run away from a fight.
• Accuracy – influences how often an attack lands on the enemy.
• Intelligence – supports damage and armor stats usage.
• Armor – influences damage absorption and reduction of the incurred health loss.

The main way to increase stats is by converting Special Points at the Upgrade Center.
Stats can also be found in the daily giveaway, although they are rare.

Player Skills

There are 8 player skills available in game. Each skill gives advantages in different game areas.
Every skill is capped at level 10.
Players can gain exp points for a certain skill by converting special points at the Upgrade Center.
The conversion rate is 10 exp per 1 special point.
Additionally, exp can be gained from various gameplay actions or be found / won in the casino and auctions.

• Driving – makes you perform better on the racetrack. Driving Exp is awarded for racing.
• Crime – unlocks more Petty & Organized crimes, as well as reduces the timers on the crimes.
• Gunsmith – gives weapons a better boost from modifications at the Gang's Gunsmith Shed.
• Mechanic – gives cars a better boost from modifications at the Gang's Mechanic Workshop.
• Law – reduces jail sentence when you get caught by the police.
• Chemistry – increases the drug output in your drug factory.
• Accounting – reduces profit share given to your thugs when you sell Drug Packages.
• Jail Bust-out – increases successful bust-out odds and also reduces time when jailed.

Battles & Attacking

Battles are one of the key ways of obtaining player exp points and thus, leveling up.
To attack another player you must first find their current location in the game. The current location is composed of two parts, City and Area.
To find the City, you can use the Private Investigator, by paying a small fee. This won't work on Conman's with the premium item Leather Cloak activated. To find the Area, you have to search through the city, by clicking the various links and going to “Visitors in this location”.
We have 15 cities in the game, so that gives 420 unique locations in which the players can be found at.
When you access the Visitors link, it shows the players that are in that Area. This means where the player was last active or is currently active.
When you find someone, you will see the Attack button next to their name.
If the player is in one of the statuses: flying, healing, jailed, in Mechanic's workshop or in Gunsmith's shed, you will not be able to attack.

Attacking other players requires 100 Action Energy.
When you try to attack someone, there are three possibilities:
1) The attack takes place;
2) The attacked player manages to run away, in which case he will be moved to a random Area in the same City;
3) The cops arrest you before you manage to start the attack. The jailing is short.

When the battle starts, one of the players can still manage to outsmart the opponent and run away from the fight.
This is based on a bit of luck, but also on the Speed and Accuracy skills.
If nobody runs away, then both players bitch slap each other. This results in 5 health points loss.
Then the battle takes place in rounds. In each round, both players attack each other.
The speed and accuracy skills determine which player hits first and which player counters the attack.
The damage done during the hit is based on the total damage of the attacking player, minus power absorbed by the total armor of the defending player.
To this, we add the basic damage, which is a fixed 5 damage.
Basic damage ensures that even weak players are capable of doing damage, even if the stats difference is very high.

Additionally, equipment plays a major role in the system.
For every round of attack and counterattack, the system draws separately if any item will be used.
For attacks we have three weapons: Primary, Secondary and Melee.
Depending on what is drawn, it can be any combination of items used: none, one, two or even all three.
Same simulation and draw is done for the two defensive items: Armor and Vest.
If the item is drawn to be used in the round of attacks, its bonus stats will be used in calculating the final damage and armor values.
Please note that each time an item is drawn for use in the round of attacks, it receives +1 use.
Items have a limit of uses, and if the limit is reached, the item is scrapped and removed from the game.
You will receive a notification about it and will have to equip another item in your Equipment.
Also, every use of the item decreases its value.

Player Exp is awarded based on the total health taken from the enemy during the battle. The winner also receives bonus exp.
The player who lost the battle is automatically sent to the hospital for healing.
The healing is free of charge, but the duration of the healing depends on the player levels of you and your last enemy in battle.

Additional bonus exp points are awarded if:

• Your battle took place in a city other than your home city
• There is a hitman contract active on the target
• The enemy was set as the Marked Man of your Gang
• The enemy is in a Gang which is set as your Gang’s enemy

Less exp points are awarded if you attack a player that is in your Gang.
Winning fights gives positive ranking points and losing fights gives negative ranking points.

Gangs

Ranks and Options

A new Gang starts with only a Leader position which has access to a panel for permission customization.
Roles can be created with great granularity so the Leader can create positions which only have access to specific tools.
This allows for better time management in a well organized Gang so that one player isn't responsible for too much.

Recruitment

Gangs can send invites to players, but it is up to the player to decide if they want to join the Gang.
Players can quit the Gang anytime they want. They can also be kicked out by the Leader.

Mechanic Workshop

The workshop is the place where Gang members can spend hours working on upgrading their cars. To work on a car, you need to enter a vacant box. Then you will see the list of cars that are available to be worked on. If there is nothing, then you need to drop one of your cars, but it cannot be a car that is active, on private auction or on marketplace. Cars that are dropped cannot be stolen via Car Theft. They can be withdraw only by their respective owners, nobody else.

Every shift of work lasts 1 hour. You will receive 10 mechanic exp points for the shift. When the car reaches the required limit of hours, the modification will take place. There are 4 different possibilities of the modification outcome: 3 add extra stats and 1 adds more races. Each will be based on the Mechanic level of the player who does the final last hour of the required hours limit. Additionally, if the car is level 5 and has all upgrades purchased, the car picture and name will be changed too.

More mechanic boxes for simultaneous work can be unlocked when the Gang levels up. Please note that you cannot enter box with mechanic and gunsmith at the same time, you need to Cancel one to be able to enter the other.

Gunsmith Shed

The shed is the place where Gang members can spend hours working on upgrading their weapons. To work on a weapon, you need to enter a vacant box.
Then you will see the list of weapons that are available to be worked on.
If there is nothing, then you need to drop one of your weapons, but it cannot be a weapon that is active, private auction or on marketplace.
Weapons that are dropped cannot be stolen via Burglary. They can be withdraw only by their respective owners, nobody else.

Every shift of work lasts 1 hour. You will receive 10 gunsmith exp points for the shift. When the weapon reaches the required limit of hours, the modification will take place. There are 4 different possibilities of the modification outcome: 3 add extra stats and 1 adds more uses. Each will be based on the Gunsmith level of the player who does the final last hour of the required hours limit. The weapons name will receive “Modified” to its name.

More gunsmith boxes for simultaneous work can be unlocked when the Gang levels up. Please note that you cannot enter box with mechanic and gunsmith at the same time, you need to Cancel one to be able to enter the other.

Marked man

Marked man is a special tool designed for the Gang to choose one particular player in the game that should be attacked by all Gang members. This option allows to track down the number of kills, reputation taken and drug factory attacks made by the Gang members against the marked man.

Additionally, the marked man will be displayed with a special sign in the Visitors in this location. Any attack on the marked man will grant 10% more exp points.

Sectors

Any Gang can take over any of the 90 city sectors in the game. To do so, the Gang needs to initiate a sector control mission.
The mission will be exclusive to Gang members.
On the first time a sector is being attempted to be taken over, the mission will be against 5 Mercenaries and 5 bombs.
The mission will display 25 buildings in the sector. They will have either bombs or mercenaries or be empty.
To win the mission, all mercenaries must be found and killed. There is no limit to how many Gang members can participate.
Each participating member will be able to attack 1 building every 5 minutes.

Once the sector is taken over, the Gang will receive daily extortion from all businesses that are setup in that sector.
Businesses owned by Gang members will not pay extortion.
Also, that sector will not be able to be taken by any Gang until the end of the month.

On the 1st of every month, all 90 sectors become unclaimed again.
So, your Gang should get organized to get the most profit out of claimed sectors at the start of each month.
Note however, that claiming sectors closer to the end of month is not worthless.
Their profit will be less, of course, but still well worth it.

My Garage

The is where you can view and manage your cars.
Before you drive your first race, you need to set a car as active. Once the car is active, you can start racing.
Please note that the car cannot be made inactive, it can be only switched to another car you possess as your active car.
You will also be automatically signed up to car tournaments for free, as long as you have an active car.

Cars have a limit of races. When the limit is reached, the car will be scrapped and removed from the game.
You can however reset the number of races driven, at the cost of some credits.
Premium cars and rare cars have much higher limit of races than normal cars.
Cars can level up. The cap for a car level is 5. On every level, there are new upgrades available to the car.
The upgrades can be purchased in the garage.
The car requires 25 car exp points to level up each time. The exp can be obtained from racing in tournaments and underground challenges.

Every car can be modified. Once the car is level 5 with all available upgrades and once the car has reached the required number of Mechanic’s upgrade hours done in the Gang’s Mechanic Workshop, the car will be modified.
The modification will change the car's name, by adding “Modified” to the car’s name. The car picture will also change to a new racing theme.

Some considerations:
The car you have set as active, can be driven by others that perform the crime Drunk Driving.
All other cars (except Premium ones) that are in your Garage, besides your active one, can be stolen via Car Theft.
Once you drop one of your cars on the Gang's Mechanic Workshop, it will be displayed in your garage but there won't be any options to it.

Voting Center

Voting Center is our key method of advertising the game. We appreciate if people vote on a daily basis.
We currently have 7 voting site partners, but that is subject to change if we see that a certain voting site is no longer functional.

Once you click on a voting link, you will be sent to the voting site to cast your vote.
Some sites require anti-bot verification, which takes a few seconds.
Once you vote, the voting link for the site will disappear, since most sites only allow voting every 24 hours.
As a reward for voting, we give 1 Voting Point for each vote.
Voting Points can be converted to great prizes and resources inside the game: Cash, Special Points, Premium Days, rare cars.
Voting Points can also used to bid on thugs in the Thug Market or traded on private auctions.

Game Alerts

Game Alerts are a form of communication between the game developers and players.
They appear at the top of the screen, on a red stripe. Player can click on the “Notice” button and the alert will disappear.

Game Alerts will be placed if the game is experiencing any technical difficulties or undergoing any live changes.
Also, Raffle winners will be announced this way on a daily basis during the Xmas Raffle.

Special Points

Special Points (SPs for short) are very expensive and a rare game currency.
They are awarded on milestone rewards and they can be won on auctions, found in crimes, lockers, daily giveaway and the junkyard, rarely.
SPs can be converted into basic player stats or skill exp points. 1 SP gives 0.1 basic stat increase or 10 skill exp points.

Satisfaction

Satisfaction affects your crime, battle and racing performance significantly.
Satisfaction is displayed as 0 to 6 stars in the top navigation panel. Below the stars, you have a number.
The number is linked to your player level. It shows how many satisfaction points you need to convert into 1 satisfaction star.
The maximum amount of stars you can get normally is 6.
So, if you are level 50, you will need 50 x 6 = 300 satisfaction points to go from 0 to 6 stars.
For players with Premium Days, the maximum increases to 7.

There are also special situations in which a player can have 7 stars.
This happens when the player:

• Consumes Cocaine Oz
• Consumes Bottle of Scotch

Satisfaction stars fade at a fixed game time. You will lose 1 star at: 0:00, 4:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00 and 20:00 game time.

You can obtain satisfaction points from:

• Satisfaction Lane - visiting businesses
• Daily Giveaway
• Numbers Game
• Auctions

Action Energy

Action Energy is used for:

• Committing crimes
• Bidding on auctions
• Searching through the Junkyard
• Attacking or pickpocketting other players
• Starting Live Missions

The maximum is 100 energy.
Action Energy refills 7 points per 5 minutes, or 10 points if you have Premium Days.
Action Energy can also be found in Lockers, Daily Giveaway, Auctions and gained by dumping items in the Junkyard.
There is also a consumable item - Action Boost - which gives a full energy bar.
A temporary excess of action energy is possible, but at the 5 minutes mark the excess will be reduced to meet the maximum limit.

Reputation

Reputation is a way of showing respect or disrespect to other players.
There's no downside to having positive rep but there are definitely consequences to having negative.
When any player reaches -20 reputation points, they will automatically be sent to Federal Prison for 24 hours.
This means they will not be able to login to the game during this time.

This goes to show that if you want to be successful, you'd be smart to make allies.
On the other hand, this is also a great way of bullying your enemies and teaching them a lesson not to mess around with you.
When released from Federal Prison, reputation points reset to 0.

Current reputation can be found in the navigation bar.
To give or take reputation, you need to click on a player’s profile and there you will have the respective buttons for both options.
You can give or take 1 reputation point per day. You can reset this daily by using an upgrade at the Dark Alley.

City Jail

City Jail shows the list of players that are serving jailing time at the moment. The list works worldwide, not city specific.
Players can serve time for being caught during crimes, illegal street racing and street fight and pickpocket attempts.
Jailing times are short, but players can try to get out of jail earlier.

First option is to use a Bribery Card which gives an instant exit.
Second option is to set a bust-out incentive, which will allow other players to try and bust you out.
If they fail, they will end up in jail for the exact same amount of time as you had left when they tried to bust you out.
If they succeed, they will receive the incentive cash you have set and bust-out skill exp points.
Third option is to get bailed out by another player. This is rather quite expensive but gives player exp points in return.
Fourth option is to get the city mayor of the city you are jailed in, to have you released.

Federal Prison

Federal Prison is where we put away rule breakers for a certain period of time.
Apart from that, you can end up in the Federal Prison when you reach -20 reputation points.
This will remove you from the game for 24 hours. While locked up, you can't be attacked.

Equipment

Equipment is where you manage all your gear, consumables, special items and antiques.
The summary will show the total potential bonus stats of your equipped items.
Not every item is always used during combat, so the total bonus stats is a combination of extra stats gained with the luckiest draw of the items used in combat. You will also see the summary of how many items you possess.
There are 3 different types of equipment:

• Weapons - used in combat
• Consumables – one time use items
• Special items & Antiques - rare items that give bonuses

Weapons divide into 5 categories of items used in combat: primary, secondary, melee, vest and armor.
You need to equip them for combats and they have a limited number of uses.
If a weapon is used in any round of combat, the Uses Left value will decrease by 1.
When it reaches 0, the weapon will be scrapped and removed from the game.

Consumables are one-time use items that have a special effect.
They can influence your crimes, such as resetting cooldowns on certain crimes or give you 7 Satisfaction Stars. Once used, they are gone.

Special Items & antiques can be equipped under Special Items slot in the active equipment. Antiques give stats boosts in combat.
If an antique is equipped under Special Item slot, it will always be used in every combat, as special items have 100% chance of being drawn in battles. Some Special Items provide specific bonuses in gameplay, such as seeing content of lockers, or dealing extra damage to enemies in combats. They can also increase the cash and exp gained.

Credits

Credits are the premium currency of the game.
It can be used for trades, purchasing Thugs at the Thug Market, purchasing various items or bundles in the Premium Shop, creating Gangs or expediting construction times on businesses.
Credits can be bought via PayPal in the Premium Shop. Please allow up to 5 minutes for the trade to complete and the Credits to appear.
Due to Credits being a scarce currency, their value is assumed to be always increasing, as in-game cash will be constantly created by the players.

Premium Days

Premium Days are another premium currency of the game, but those can't be traded with other players.
Premium Days can be obtained in the following ways:

• Converting Credits
• Converting Voting Points
• Milestone Rewards
• Museum Collections
• Referral Prizes
• And sometimes on Monthly Prizes

The benefits include:

• Access to Emirates Airlines – the fastest airline in the game
• Exclusive 5 week bank deposit with the highest interest rate
• 3 upgrades in the Dark Alley instead of 2
• 360 minutes attack protection after healing in the hospital instead of 240
• 10 action energy every 5 minutes instead of 7
• Drug Factory raid report will show extra stats, such as factory owner and all factory defense present
• When visiting the Airport, the 3 cities with most players will be highlighted in red
• Default of 4 Satisfaction stars instead of 3

Ranking Points

Ranking points are points awarded to players based on their in-game achievements.
Both positive and negative points can be awarded. Losing a battle or a race gives negative points.
Positive points are awarded for winning battles, winning races and tournaments, gaining levels, which counts for all skills too.
Additional elements influencing the ranking points:

• Hitman contracts
• Horse race wagers
• Numbers game wins
• Jail bust-outs
• Missions

Currently no points are awarded for net worth or wealth related statistics.
The sum of points gained in a single month counts towards the Monthly ranking.
General ranking is based on the sum of all points gained.
Monthly Ranking does not show when points are negative. The bottom displayed value will always be 0.
General ranking shows negative values.

City Mayor Options

City Mayors are accountable for the city that they are governing over.
A Mayor is selected on the first day of a new month.
The current mayor will join the candidates for mayor list for the next month for free.
Running for mayor costs 2000$ but the mayor has great powers:

• Deport a player from the city, up to 10 times a month.
• Release a player from city jail, up to 30 times a month. The player must be jailed in the same city.
• Set the City Tax. This is how much income from business, service avenue and job will be taxed.
• Receive a weekly salary, on Sundays, equal to 1% of the City Funds balance.

Deporting a player triggers flight mode, to the destination city of the mayor’s choice, with the cheapest airliner.
Tax for businesses and service avenue profit is counted based on which city the business is built in.
The tax ranges from 15% to 40%. All the money goes to the City Reserves.

Future option for the mayor will be to spend the money from the City Reserves and build infrastructure in the city.
This will increase the city attractiveness, which will affect the property and land prices in the city.

Rules & Guidelines

In Accordance to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) (Text with EEA relevance), OG-RPG will only store your e-mail that you have used to register your account and that you use to login into the game; and store your IP address for the purpose of preventing any multiple accounts cheaters. By creating an account, you automatically give your consent to store your e-mail and IP address in our database.
At any given point, you have the right to remove your email and IP address from our database. To do so, you will however need to request that your account is deleted from the game. The process of account deletion request requires you to login to the game and send a deletion request via PM, to player ID#1 (Game Owner); or player(s) holding the staff title of Game Manager at the given time. The deletion will be processed within 144 hours (6 days), or on a 'best effort' basis.

The following is a list of violations of the game rules, and the resulting punishments. Game staff reserve the right to interpret these policies in certain situations.

In addition to these Game Rules, there is a page where the Terms of Service are stated: Terms of Service. Anything stated in the Terms of Service is in Addition to the Game Rules and does not cancel anything in the Game Rules. By agreeing to the Game Rules, you agree to the Terms of Service and by agreeing to the Terms of Service, you agree to the Game Rules.

Further, Terms of Service includes: Terms of Use (“TOU”) and Privacy Policy sections.

1. Flooding
1.1 Intentionally spamming or flooding of message boards will result in a 3 day jail term.

2. Multiple Accounts
2.1 As far as the definition of a multiple account, or multi, goes, OG-RPG Administration defines it as the following: A main account with the existence of one or more accounts with the primary purpose of aiding the main account.

2.2 This definition includes: A single player making several accounts to aid one central account; a single player buying an account(s) to assist a central account; a single player getting friends to join solely to aid their central account, etc. It also includes groups of players working together to solely aid each other’s accounts.

Please note, the definition is not limited to what is listed above. Game staff reserves the right to interpret player activities as needed, and take any and all appropriate action.

2.3 It is expected that every account that is created is controlled by a unique individual and has the primary purpose of personal advancement, not the advancement of another player. That is not to say that you cannot assist your friends in their advancement, while still having the primary focus of your own advancement. However, if staff deems your account worthy of investigation, you will be contacted by a member of the MAC team, and your account will be flagged.

The purpose of contact is to give suspect players an opportunity to explain their actions. At this stage, full and honest cooperation with the staff member may result in a warning being given and no further action to be taken. However, ignoring formal messages from staff and/or continuing the suspect activity after being notified of an investigation will result in your account being jailed indefinitely pending further investigation.

2.4 You are only allowed one account per individual. There are no exceptions to this policy. Players found to have multiple accounts also known as “multis” will have the main account jailed for 21 days and all other accounts deleted. All funds, items and status that were gained from the use of the multiple accounts will be edited out of the primary account. The offender may also be subject to further fines and/or other punishment as deemed necessary by the staff. Repeat offenses will result in a permanent IP and/or Host ban.

2.5 These rules have been instituted to keep game play fair and balanced. If you have any questions about this policy, or want to have your records checked to make sure you have not violated this policy, please contact the staff via Private Message.

2.6 As of 21st May 2018, the update for Multiple Accounts section is effective.
Players who share same IP on one or more occassions need to abide the below rules:
- Trading between accounts, including all Marketplace trades and Cash transfers via Gang are prohibited
- Trades done through Private Auctions and Thug Auctions are allowed
- Attacking another player who is on the same IP is prohibited, excluding attacks Game War
- Jail bust outs and Jail bail outs are allowed
- Drug Factory raids done together on the same target are allowed
- Car Racing: Races against same IP player are allowed only when both players are facing each other in a Tournament. Race Challenge races are prohibited
- Reputation Points awarding is prohibited

2.7 Players who are occasionally caught breaking the rules mentioned in section 2.6 will not be automatically classified as Multi accounts and therefore will not fall under the same type of punishment, however the game staff reserves the right to punish those players by:
- giving an official warning on the first offense
- editting the account gains on the second offense
- up to 3 days ban for both accounts on the third offense
- permanently banning and deleting the accounts on the fourth offense


3. Trades
3.1 In order to keep the market as open and smoothly running as possible, the trade system has to have oversight. It’s very simple. All trades must be for fair market value. This means no trades way under or way above fair value, no giving away of items upon quitting the game and the like.

3.2 Failure to comply by this rule will result in an official warning for the first offence, with the trade being reversed between the players. The management reserves the right to edit the accounts in any way to reverse the trade in a fair manner. Repeat failure to comply with this rule will result in a 15 day jailing for the secondary offences. Any additional offences may, but will not always, lead to account deletion.

4. Player Harassment
4.1 The Internet is such an active environment that flame wars are bound to happen. It is therefore up to game staff to determine when communication crosses the line into abusive. This is not to say that everyone must play nice, this is a Mafia game after all. This harassment policy only applies to continued and targeted harassment of a particular person, not the occasional insult.

4.2 If a player’s comments are offending you and they are directed at you, ask them to stop. If they do not stop, punishments will be enforced. However, while some topics may be offensive, unless it clearly violates the forum and chat sub-rules on speech, the staff may, but do not have to, give the player making the remarks some leeway to express themselves. Public harassment of fellow players will result in a 7 day jail term.

4.3 Private communications are subject to this rule as well. If a complaint is made, Management will review the communications and determine if said complaint is warranted. If it truly is harassment, the offender will be subject to a 5 days jail term.

4.4 Some actions will be subject to this harassment policy as well. However, in order for action to be taken, any such harassment would have to be sustained and truly disruptive. Please contact with the staff in any such situation.

Repeat offenses will result in account deletion.

5. Sexual Harassment
5.1 Sexual Harassment will not be tolerated. Sexual Harassment is defined by OG-RPG Administration as such: Any behaviour that includes unwelcome sexual advances and other verbal or textual conduct of a sexual nature. This includes, but is not limited to: Sexually graphic private messages, forum postings or chat box postings; displaying pictures of a sexually graphic nature; Attempts to solicit pictures or text of a sexual nature; and any other like actions. Violation of this policy will result in 14 day jail term.

6. Staff Harassment
6.1 Any complaints against staff will be presented in a clear manner, free of any profanity or personal attacks. Slanderous and/or personal attacks and/or profane communications against staff members will not be tolerated; and will result in the offending comments removed, and a 7 day jail sentence for the offender. Repeat offenses will result in 30 day jail sentence.

7. Game contents & items
7.1 The selling of game items, currency or anything within the game for either real money or in another game currency is not permitted. Any player found doing so will get a 30 day jail sentence. Repeat offenses may result in account deletion.

8. Selling of Accounts
8.1 The selling of accounts for either real money or game currency is not permitted. Any players involved will have their accounts deleted immediately.

9. Scripts/Continual Connections
9.1 Any piece of software, without human interaction or regard to the content displayed is banned. In other words, every click sent to the game servers must come from a live person, not an automated system. Anyone found using such a system will be jailed for 30 days. A secondary offense will result in immediate account deletion.

10.Account Sharing
10.1 Logging in to, or using another player’s account under any circumstances will result in a jail term of at least 20 days or deletion. You cannot share an account with any other player or allow any other player to log in to your account. Repeat offenses will result in account deletion.

11. Game Bug Abuse
11.1 Depending on severity, game bug abuse will result in either a 30 day jail term and/or account deletion. Bugs, loopholes, security flaws, or any inconsistencies in the game should be immediately reported in the appropriate thread on the message boards or contact via in-game private messaging to an appropriate staff member immediately following discovery of any bugs. Failure to disclose, even if you do not abuse the bug yourself, will result in the same punishment listed above. Repeat offenses will result in account deletion, and possible legal action to be discharged to the fullest extent of the law.

12. Account Ownership
12.1 The account owner is responsible for their account’s actions at all times. This means that if anyone logs into your account such as a Gang member or your pet dog, you are held responsible. Keep your email and password secure.

13. Repeat Offenders
13.1 Management reserves the right to discharge harsher punishments, not limited to but including account deletion, for repeat offenses.

14. Loss of items due to hacking
14.1 Lost items will not be returned unless it can be proven that a game bug or glitch caused the loss.

15. Ripping/Gang Staff Selling
15.1 Unless the failure has been caused by a programming error, any loss of game currency, items or anything else caused by ripping or Gang staff selling will not be returned.

15.2 Scamming Scamming is an essential part of the game. It is generally allowed to scam other players, however there are limitation in that. Please refer to 15.3 to see the limitations

15.3 Scamming Protected Items All things that can be bought inside the game with real money, including but not limited to: Credits, Premium Days, Premium Items, Premium Cars, Premium special items, premium weapons, premium armour are a subject to a special protection. Scamming of those items is strictly prohibited, therefore to avoid any possible problems, it is advised to trade those items through Commercial Marketplace and not through Gang Armory feature.

If a player is found guilty of scamming protected items, the items will be returned back to their owner and the scammer will be jailed for 3 days for the first offense. Each next offense will result in 7 days jailing

With the introduction of direct P2P transfer options for game cash and Credits, we want to highlight that any form of Credits scamming is strictly prohibited and is punishable. By Credits scamming, we understand that there is a written agreement between two parties, where one party is obliged to perform certain actions or exchange resources, and the other party is supposed to send Credits.

In case the Credits are sent as upfront payment and the other part of the contract is not executed, the party which has sent the Credits has the right to inform game staff about the situation. Staff will require a screenshot of the agreement to support the further actions, retrieve the Credits and ban the scammer.

We strongly advise to make all trading arrangements using the Private Messages inside the game, so that staff can verify the authenticity of the agreement

16. Lost accounts due to hacking
16.1 Accounts will be returned to their proper owner provided that the player can prove their identity. No game items or game currency will be returned however.

17. Player Placed Images
17.1 All player placed images should not be offensive to any part of society and should not violate any laws of the Unites States of America. Depending on the severity of the image, any player or group of players violating this rule will either be jailed for no less than 15 to 100 days; or face immediate account deletion.

17.2 Furthermore, any form of pornography will result in immediate account deletion and possible legal action to be discharged to the fullest extent of the law.

17.3 Pornography is defined by OG-RPG Management as such: Images that show full frontal nudity, sexual actions, and/or illegal sexual activities, i.e. Kiddie porn, bestiality, etc.

17.4 Images that feature breasts, buttocks and suggest actions, but do not show the said actions, are acceptable.

18. Player-Staff Interaction
18.1 Both players and staff are expected to act in a respectful and civil manner. However, there are times when staff will be acting as a player and not as a staff member. In the event of a situation between a player and a staff member, the aforementioned staff member cannot use the excuse of they were acting as a player; but they should be able to act as a player when there are no official duties to perform.

18.2 Staff are always expected to act in a manner consistent with the Code of Conduct

19. Staff Obligations to Players
19.1 Staff are required to respond to all questions and requests by players in a manner consistent with the Code of Conduct providing the question is directed in the correct place: staff board or private message

20. Inactivity/Gangs
20.1 If Gang Leader is inactive for a period of 60 days consecutively the Gangand all items and money in it will be deleted with no option of recovery.

The Game Rules listed above can be changed at any time. A major change to these Game Rules will be announced but it is the responsibility of the player to be aware of and comply with these Game Rules at all times. Failure to be in compliance with these Game Rules may result in the immediate deletion of your account.
