Fictional gangster game progression

Gang ranks in order in Street Crime

Every new character begins at street level. Crimes, vehicle theft, trading and organised jobs build progress towards thirteen ranks, ending with Godfather or Godmother.

These are fictional character ranks used inside the Street Crime game, not real-world gang titles.

The table lists the male and female character titles in rank order. Both character paths progress through the same thirteen levels.

Gang rank names, hierarchy and crew positions

The numbered list above is the character hierarchy used by Street Crime. Rank one is the starting level and rank thirteen is the highest normal character level. These titles measure personal game progress; they are not real-world titles and they are separate from any role a player holds inside a crew.

Are character ranks and crew ranks the same?

No. Character rank records your individual progress through the game. A crew is a player-run group with its own leadership and membership decisions.

Why are there two rank titles?

Male and female characters use different titles at some levels, but both paths have the same thirteen steps and the same place in the hierarchy.

How does a gangster move up a rank?

Crimes, vehicle theft, trading and organised jobs build character progress. Rank is earned through play rather than selected as a crew position.

What changes at a higher rank?

Higher ranks expand the activities and resources available to a character, creating more ways to earn, cooperate and compete with other players.

How ranking works

Your rank represents the experience and reputation your character has earned. Regular criminal activities contribute to that progress, while higher ranks open access to more demanding parts of the game. Successful players balance frequent opportunities with the risk of jail, lost resources and conflict with rivals.

Activities that build progress

Petty crime

Start with lower-risk crimes, learn the timing of the game and gradually improve your character's ability.

Grand theft auto

Attempt to steal vehicles, then decide whether each car is more useful as cash, transport or part of another plan.

City trading

Travel between cities and compare prices to turn available carrying capacity into profit and experience.

Organised crime

As your options grow, work with other gangsters on coordinated crimes that reward planning and cooperation.
