A persistent mafia strategy game, played in your browser
Every player starts from the same point in Blackridge: a little cash, a handgun and a head full of ambition. From there, everything is earned — through street deals, smart investments, alliances and a reputation you build one decision at a time.
The world is shared and persistent. Other players are rivals, partners or targets: you can raid the street, defend your hideout, hire bodyguards, take part in gang wars and climb a public leaderboard.
Black Empire is free to play and works on desktop and mobile browsers. Create an account in seconds and start building your empire right away.
