Miss classic social RPGs from the early Facebook era, where strategy, patience, and reputation mattered more than flashy graphics? Mob Wars is still here and still growing.
Over 1 million registered players. Online since 2009. Available on iOS, Facebook, and web.
Welcome to Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra, the original online text-based mafia RPG. Step into a massive multiplayer underworld where you compete in PvP battles against real players, build your mob, and rise through the ranks of a living criminal empire.
You start with nothing. No money. No respect. No crew.
Work your way up by completing gang missions, earning cash, managing businesses, and growing your mob as you compete with real players in an online mafia world where every decision matters.
Mob Wars delivers the deep social gameplay that fans of classic browser mafia games remember, combining long-term progression, multiplayer competition, and strategic decision-making.
Build your gang, expand your empire, and dominate rival families in a world driven by real player interaction.
Unlike many mafia games, Mob Wars is built around social gameplay. Chat with players, form alliances, recruit mobsters, and create powerful syndicates. Choose your allies carefully. Loyalty is everything.
But watch your back. Mafia wars can break out at any time. When rival gangs strike, you will need your crew and syndicate to survive gang wars, hitlist attacks, and large-scale PvP battles.

My question rises because of the “arming” system in this game, where you select your weapons and armor. Why don’t you allow all of our weapons to be used per battle? Older games allowed your entire arsenal of weapons and armor to contribute to the ability to win/lose a fight, raising the demand of purchasing new weapons in exchange for an upkeep fee which takes from your income. This allowance enabled users to work to upgrade their armory as well as city, giving the game more options for users to weigh what they wish to contribute to (income vs army). I noticed this issue when I spun 3 loot crates as a level 1 and got the best weapons and vehicles in the game, rendering my need to ever have to consider purchasing any new weapons completely vanish. If your character would take all of your weapons into consideration, they would definitely consider spending more on better weapons. I understand the general demand for games of this kind are slim compared to the past and your system works as it is, but I believe the quality could be enhanced with some minor feature updates.

Hello Caldermody,Thanks for reaching out and thank you for the 5-star review.You can use most of your weapons and armour when going into battle, each Mobster in your Mob can take in 1 weapon, 1 armour, and 1 vehicle. Your Mob automatically equips the strongest ones available. For a more in-depth answer, please reach out to our support staff at mobwarslcn.support@kanoapps.com.

Very similar to early Facebook games Mafia City. No Ads, and no real restrictions on leveling. You replenish energy and stamina to continue fighting mobs and doing missions. They replenish every level and you level as fast as you want to play. You can really put 10 seconds of effort at a time or a full hour if you want to, and there’s no real drawback of going slow or going fast through the game. I’m not at the end game content so I do not know how steep the leveling curve is and if the game/devs prioritize P2W revenue based strategies for late game content.

We're glad it's giving you nostalgic vibes and that you are having fun with the progression (and building the ultimate Mobster / Mafia Syndicate) Good luck in the current Syndicate Quests event that launched this morning for all our players!
Good game with major flaw
Michael Miguelicutti
I’ve enjoyed this game since I got it. However I’ve run into an issue in recent levels where I run out of players to attack on the fight list and have to attack what is referred to as “whacked mobsters”. I’m assuming this is because everyone in my level range is either dead or injured. This is very annoying as these “whacked mobsters” don’t reward money or nearly as much xp as normal players. The devs ought to consider raising the hp regeneration rate significantly to fix this. The hp regen rate is so painfully slow in this game that if a player is attacked when they’re offline, they’ll remain low on health for days if not weeks. This is the one thing about this game I find to be really poorly thought out. The devs should consider raising the regen rate to 10% hp every 5 minutes from the +1 hp every 3-4 minutes it is right now. This way offline players hp will regen faster and more people will be available on the fight list. I used to play a game called Villains back in the day and that game had the hp regen rate I suggested and it worked perfectly. Please consider this!

My Opinion of the app/game!
ugotz4720044
I was a video game addict since I was in pre-school with sports games being my favorite especially when Tecmo Bowl was released. Then a few days ago I was just looking at the apps during which I discovered this one and I was intrigued by how the reviews were actually pretty much positive and the purpose/goal of this app/game was attainable and the other things which were involved in the process of accomplishing tasks ranging from fist fights to gun battles to explosions!! Tasks are not impossible to complete and the whole point of the game is amazing and any one with any type of sense has more than a fair chance of being promoted upwards, building and acquiring territory and storage facilities!! I actually have beds enjoying my time with this app! I am still amazed by the quality of the service and the type of crimes that you have to accomplish in your pursuit to be bumped up to an authority figure in the crime family of your city !!!
