About This Game

From Street Hustler to Kingpin

Crime Empire Idle is an idle/incremental management game where you build a criminal operation from petty street work to a high-profile empire. Pick your next job, manage Heat, convert dirty cash into real power, craft better gear, and push into higher-risk territory as Notoriety unlocks new systems.

Key Features

• 4 interlocking lanes: Street, Underworld, Workshop, and Combat

• Heat & Notoriety: real risk vs. reward decisions that change how you play

• Deep crafting: weapons, armor, ammo, attachments, and tech tools from salvage

• Upgrades & Markets: grow and optimize your empire with long-term investments

• Combat with progression: zones, loot, loadouts, and scalable tactics

• Offline progress: your operation keeps moving while you’re away

• Clear, explainable numbers: track your progress and know where your bonuses come from

Four Lanes, One Empire

Street work, underworld operations, crafting, and combat all feed into one evolving system. Generate income through street jobs, fence and launder it to control Heat, and refine materials into real value. In the workshop, craft weapons, armor, ammo, attachments, and tech tools from salvage. Combat ties everything together: unlock new zones, fight for loot, and fine-tune loadouts and tactics for consistent, scalable wins.

Heat and Notoriety create constant risk-versus-reward decisions: push too hard and penalties stack. Play it smart and new upgrades, markets, and systems open up. Your gear and tactics define your approach, from steady and efficient routes to high-risk bursts with bigger payoffs. Offline progress keeps your empire moving while you’re away.
