Game description:
We have a Player's Guide available at http://www.criminalrising.com/guide.php but here's some additional information about game play.

Basically, in this game you start out with a single character in your crime family. You choose what crimes they commit and once you perform enough of a certain crime you have the ability to specialize and become a professional in that area (such as a Hitman). Once specialized you gain more experience and money for crimes and you become a higher level. With more money you are able to buy a larger Headquarters and add additional characters to your crime family. Each additional character can specialize in a different criminal area.

Some crimes require items (such as weapons) that must be purchased on the black market. Your game rank is based on your family's net worth and consists of the combined value of your characters, crime base, items, and cash. You can attack and be attacked by other players which can affect your rank, and you must hire bodyguards (through the black market) to protect you from being attacked.

This game is turn-based. All criminal acts use turns which will be deposited into your reserve every 10 minutes. You transfer the turns from your reserve to your individual characters. Games are designed to last about a month and at the end of each month the final rankings are posted and player stats are reset. This will give you the opportunity to experiment with different strategies and combination's of types of criminals each game.

=================

I'm hoping for at least 10 players to help test this game for bugs. This won't require much time each day - only about 10 to 15 minutes. This round will only last one week. Currently you can start an account and login to get a general idea of what game play looks like but the actual turn system and stats won't be reset until Sunday. Let me know if you have any questions.
