Play Dope Wars is an independent browser remake of the Drug Wars / Dope Wars trading-game formula. Buy low, sell high, manage debt, and survive a 30-day Classic run. Play on desktop, Android, or iPhone through a modern browser; this is a web game, not a native app download.
Start with $2,000 in cash and $5,000 in debt to a loan shark. Travel between six New York City districts — Manhattan, Central Park, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Coney Island, and the Ghetto — buying drugs at low prices and selling at high prices. Dodge cops, survive muggers, and manage your bankroll across 30 intense days. Your final score is your net worth when time runs out.
New to the game? Read the rules and beginner tips to learn the rules, district dangers, and tips for maximizing your score.
