You need to gain respect from your friends (and enemies) to become the top player of the year (one ingame-year is 46 days)! The players do not only compete for fame and glory, every round the best players are rewarded with cool prizes from the sponsors.

Story

After 2 years in coma you wake up and take your first stumbling steps out of the hospital in CrimCity. You will never forget how you got there, a bloodstained scene in the underworld. You were the most respected mafia leader and you had the control of nearly all districts when your companions stabbed you in the back.

Their plan was to get rid of you and take what you had been working so hard to get. But their plan failed; somehow you managed to survive a shot in the head, and ended up in coma. Now nothing can stop you from reclaiming what once was yours and once again become the most respected kingpin of the underworld. The road to unlimited power is long and hard and you have to start from scratch again.

Arms Dealer

Weapons
Here it is possible to purchase the gun. The good weapon is useful both for robberies which and for assaults. One should remember about one correctness – not always most expensive means best. Every of weapons has the different degree of injuries. In order to determine real “power” of gun we must count: injury of weapon 10

Armors
This option permits us the purchase of the bulletproof vest. The endurance of the armor is being counted in for robberies and assaults.

Guards
Here however we can employ the bodyguard for our factories, raves or whores – in this way it is possible to defend itself through sabotage planned by the competition.

Durability
The more often you use your weapon, the more it will wear, causing the durability of the weapon to gradually fall from 100% downwards. If your durability is low you can repair your weapon.

Assault

Individual assaults

In order to make the individual assault you need the 55% of the stamina as well as most importantly you need above the opponent which will have 200 of respect. Now you are only choosing from the list nick of one opponent and you are clicking “Beat the pothead”. Whether your assault will close with the success is depending from your strength and from the tolerance of the opponent (one should remember around to strength injuries of the weapon are being counted in, and to the tolerance – durability of the armor) if your strength twice is exceeding the tolerance of the opponent – then your victim is dying (Remember that for a kill you can be imprisoned), if strength is in compartment 101 – 199% of tolerance of the opponent then you will only beat the victim, but if there will happen that the tolerance of your opponent is bigger than your – you are losing.
Gang assaults

Establishing a gang assault on a given person you are attacking entire his gang, person which you are attacking can be every mobster. The same authorities are deciding the win or the defeat what in the individual assault. One should remember that in the case of the group assault it is also possible to be imprisoned in the moment when members of the attacked gang die.

Bank

At the bank we can deposit money gathered together and to it receive small interests. The difference between held by oneself but held money at the bank is so, that unsuccessful robbery is taking away the part of funds which at the moment we have “in the pocket” and left money at the bank is secure. One should however remember about in order always to have a bit of a cash on our pocket for keeping up our apartments and buildings. The bank is giving us 2% from $ 100.000 at a day and 0.1% on everything above that. Interest is generated once a day.

Buildings

In the building’s option you can buy drug factories and whorehouses. The amount of buildings you can hold depend on your intelligence and tolerance and the amount of drugs they produce depend on your intelligence.Buildings are a solid investment, especially heroin, which can be sold at a very high price and is usually the main cause for people winning the round.Beware, your buildings can be sabotaged from other players at any time when having a relation.
Note: You must have some cash on hand because buildings need some money for maintenance every day, which keep buildings “in action”.

Businesses

Here at the business section, you can buy you self rave parties and night clubs.
Rave Party
To purchase 1 rave party, it costs $25000, but it can hold up to 100 users at once. You can sell 10 types of drugs in rave parties. When someone enters your rave party, they pay an entrance fee. You have to go to the business option, click the name of your business, and then scroll down and click collect earnings. All money made from selling drugs is added straight to your hand cash.
Nightclub

To purchase 1 nightclub, it costs $10000, and holds 25 people at once. Here you can sell 3 types of drugs.
Whorehouse

In a whorehouse there’s place for 5 hookers
Hooker Mansion

In a hooker mansion there’s place for 15 hookers

Price/day is the maintenance cost to keep the place running. If you don`t have the money then it will be suspended and the debt will accumulate. The cost will be drawn automatic from your cash.

Casino

Place of entertainment where with a bit of luck it is possible to earn some $ or credits. To choose from we have two options – traditional black jack, or lottery..

Black Jack – highest rate which we can put is $ 1.000.000 and we have 3 options in a game:
Stand – which means stand with your cards hit –
Hit- take next card double down –
Double down- take one card and double the stakes

Lottery: The rules of lottery are simple – in order to take part in the lottery you should buy the ticket. A cost of the ticket is 1 credit. It is possible to buy only 1 ticket to drawing one thing. Draws are taking place what 4 days the crims (time for twenty-four hours of the normal time). The winner is raking in the whole pot.

Docks

At the docks, on certain days ships arrive and take a certain type of drug, increasing that drugs price on the market. You can pay the sailor 10 credits to find out the date and drug the ship is taking and also give you an extra 10% cash for yer goods.

Drug Dealer

The traditional dope dealer. The drug dealer sells 14 different type’s of drugs, all at different prices. The 14 different drugs(weed,booze,painkillers,magic mushrooms,opium,cocaine,heroin,lsd,amphetamine,hash,ghb,special k,morphine and esctacy)can change in amount very quickly, and can at any time reach 0. The price can also rise at any random time, occuring from police raids or large stock arriving. Every TC day you can make bussiness with dealer 15 times.

Hookers

The hookers are purchased or found(at nightlife’s) by the player. The hookers produce an amount of cash everyday, which can get higher depending on charisma. The amount of hookers you can hold is depending on charisma. If you cant hold anymore hookers, you have to buy whorehouses from the building’s section.Each whorehouse can hold a further 5 hookers, so they are a healthy investment.

The best way to use hookers is to leave them to build up in cash until late in the round, so the chances of them dying and you having to re-buy them are slim.

Gangs

If you have some friends so you can create gang. You must have at least 50 respect. Then you can send invitation to all your friends (you must have solid relationship). Or you can be invited to gang by your friend. You can accept or decline his invitation.

When you are in gang so you can do gang robbery, attack someone with all gang members. If you are in gang and someone from gang member will attacked by another gang so no only him but all your gang will attacked.

Hospital

The Hospital is where we can go to buy various medicament`s to improve our skills in Intelligence, Strength, Charisma and Tolerance for a fee per 1 unit. We can also buy here cure’s for our drug addiction(detox,methadone). Methadone is the cheapest way to get un-addicted to drugs. Buying 1 unit will give you the equivalent of a full detox.

Detox on the other hand is at a large price, and does the same job as the methadone(keeps you un-addicted to drugs for 5 times).

We(as users) can also end up at Hospital if we lose an assault, or if we overdose(by taking too many drugs) or if we get a disease from a bad hooker. Its possible to pay 10 credits for special treatment to get out of the hospital in directly.

Plastic surgery

In hospital is section  plastic surgery where you can change your face. It’s mean that all your red contact will delete. Here you can change your avatar and nickname too.

Nightlife

At the nightlife you can use drugs/hookers to regain stamina and boost spirit. If you want visit club or whorehouse you need a ticket to enter. At the beginning you get 100 tickets and then you get 12 tickets per day.

Spirit

Your spirit depends on a few factors.

If you take bad drugs, a message in red text will appear saying aoooowwwww that was some bad shit. Your spirit will then be very low, low or normal depending on the amount of bad drugs you consumed.If you took good drugs in a large amount, your spirit will be very high, causing your stamina to recharge faster than normal.

How not to overdose

Sometimes, if you take to much drugs, you will overdose and spend 2 crims hours(30 minutes real time)in the Crimcity hospital.

These are the amounts of drugs you need to consume without overdosing and gaining 100% stamina: All are based from 0% stamina

Weed = 99 Units Painkillers = 99 Units Booze = 50 Units Magic Mushrooms = 50 Units LSD = 35 Units Ecstasy = 25 Units Opium = 20 Units Amphetamine = 20 Units Cocaine = 15 Units Heroin = 13 Units

After a while, you become addicted to drugs, meaning you will have to buy a DETOX from the hospital, or if you have a tight budget, buy a unit of Methadone.

Second alternative how make up your stamina is visit whorehouse where you can buy hooker which make up your stamina. But here is risk of catching a disease when you have sex with hooker and you will  spend 12 crims hours(3 hours real time)in the Crimcity hospital.

Prison

You can be sent to prison for a number of things:

Failed Robberies

If you failed a solo robbery, or a gang robbery, you have to spend 4 crim days (24 real hours) in Crimcity prison. You can bribe the prison guards with money, or pay 10 credits to get out.
MURDER

If you assault someone and they die, you have the chance of going to prison for 1 crim day (6 real hours). Again you can pay 10 credits or bribe to get out.

Relations

Relations are contacts that you have made in Crim City. Their are two types of contact, Solid relation, and Red Relation(temporary contact).

The difference between the two is that to have a solid relation you must manually accept it yourself. You also have the option to decline the persons request to be your friend. Without a relation nobody can attack you or message you.

A red relation is a temporary contact which you can find in rave parties or nightclubs. These are often players looking to attack you for your statistics. To clean your temporary contacts you must change either your face(avatar) or your name, or if you wish, both of them.

Sabotage

Using the Sabotage option, we can hit an enemies main money supply. Once you have obtained a relation with your victim, you can choose one of three options :– – blow up some of their factories – kill some of their whores – blow up their rave/pub

In order to make sabotage we must: – to choose the victim out of persons being found at the moment on our list of contacts. – to choose what we want to sabotage (factories, rave / pub or whores) – we are planning sabotage. – we are carrying out a plan.

So that sabotage is excellent we must plan it for a while It is necessary also to take into consideration that the victim can have rented bodyguards, and then making the sabotage can be difficult. The longer we wait, the greater the chances of us successfully executing the sabotage.

Setting up a Sabotage costs us 10% of our stamina, and a little cash.

Robbery

Individual
Whether you succeed with a robbery or not depends on the following factors: 1. Your intelligence 2. Your strength 3. Some of your tolerance 4. Your weapon’s damage. 5. Your armor .
Gang robbery
As alike as in the case of the group assault in order to make any of these robberies it is necessary to be a mobster. Robberies differ from themselves in the level problem and with the number of persons needed for making them, a needed stamina is a shared feature of group robberies for attaching for the robbery – it amounts the 30%.

Secret Messages

Secret messages are messages only people in your relations list can send to you, or receive from you.

To send one of these you must have a solid relation with whoever you wish to send the message to.

The square

The square is where you gangsters go to chill out, pass some time and talk with other criminals. When in the square, their are a few rules to abide.
