Methodology

How a game entered this census

Included

An entry needs an official HTTPS page, an explicit browser-play claim, a crime or mafia RPG/MMO premise, public evidence of current operation or access, and enough English-language evidence to review.

Excluded

App-only games, social deduction games, single-player titles, inaccessible signup-only claims, and products supported only by third-party directory claims are excluded.

Neutral ordering

Entries are ordered alphabetically by game name. No score, award, payment, affiliate relationship, estimated popularity, or editorial preference affects placement.

Unknown values

Not publicly stated means the reviewed official pages did not establish the attribute. It is not a claim that the game lacks the feature.

Source policy

Descriptive claims use official publisher or game pages. Each entry records the pages reviewed and the date of that review. Later product changes are outside this snapshot.

What each field means

Browser access
Whether an official source explicitly offers play through a web browser.
Access status
The public access state shown by official sources on the review date.
Progress model
Whether public sources describe continuing progression, rounds, seasons, or do not state the model clearly.
Player groups
Whether official sources publicly describe player-run groups such as crews, families, factions, or cartels.
PvP
Whether official sources publicly describe direct player-versus-player conflict.
Economy or trading
Whether official sources publicly describe an economy, market, trading, or player-owned economic assets.
Mobile form
The mobile access form explicitly described by official sources; this does not rate mobile quality.
