Welcome new players! Buckle up for a trip full of challenges, risks and fun!
The first challenge that faces new players is to choose an username or an alias to play this game. So in order to come up with a suitable name, you need to know what this game is all about. It’s a mafia game, shoot to kill! That means 'PinkPony' or 'Barbie' might not be the perfect nickname here, don’t you think?
Well, now you are in Bootleggers and I hope you’ve passed the pick a name up phase successfully! You tried to find a game-guide or FAQ departments, I’m uncomfortable to say: Sorry! We don’t have them for now, so it’s up to you to find out How or Who or When or What! The best ways to find an answer to your questions are the following options:
1. Create a Help Desk Ticket about your query;
2. Create a help topic in the Game Forum;
3. Ask around.
Now to the game-play: We know that new players might sincerely have no friends here, and it’s damn hard to be financially ready to make your first big crime which we call an Organized Crime (OC). You might take the hard way, which is to do crimes, GTA’s or bootlegging until you can afford joining an Organized crime. You could also start asking people around for money; here you might face rude people who won’t help you or maybe shoot you for just asking for money. Another option is to find someone who is able to help you. Watch out for scammers though! A scammer is someone who's tricking you and wants to steal your money.
You might have played other text based mafia games, but let me be the bad news breaker: Bootleggers is a mafia game that is sat on level 'Tough'. You won't find billions or trillions in the game and there are definitely no bugs to create exploited money. Building yourself up from nothing is a considerable achievement, so don't even think it's like other games where you make millions in a single bootleg.
During your stay here you will meet different kind of people from almost everywhere in the globe. Making friends anywhere is always a good thing! You may meet a chef, a pilot, a plumber, an accountant, a boxer, an ambassador or even Jude Law! Believe it or not; it really did happen! Old players will be able to help you, by introducing you to the Game’s features and what to do and what not to do. With time you will find yourself partially in control of your own destiny; to be a gambler, banker, shooter, a legend or a nobody!
At the end, we wish all new comers the best of luck and don’t give up relatively quick! Have fun and happy gaming!
