Short (about 70 words)

My Criminal Life is a free multiplayer crime game that runs in any web browser, on a computer or a phone. Players start in Noob City with $100 and a cardboard box, then pull crimes, train at the gym, take jobs, buy property and climb 16 ranks, from Nobody to Untouchable. Gangs, a casino, a newspaper and boss fights fill out the city. It's for players 18 and over.

Long (about 190 words)

My Criminal Life is a free multiplayer crime game that runs in any web browser, on a computer or a phone, with nothing to download. Players start in Noob City with $100 and a cardboard box. From there it's up to them: pull crimes for cash and experience, train strength, agility and guard at the gym, study, take a job that pays out every day, and save for a better place to live, up to a private island. A rank ladder of 16 steps runs from Nobody to Untouchable.

The city is drawn in a graphic-novel style and laid out on an illustrated map. Players form gangs and declare wars, team up to take down bosses on the Most Wanted list, gamble in a casino whose odds are published, get married at St. Jude's Church and read the city's own newspaper.

The game first opened on August 28, 2013, and went quiet by the end of 2016. Its owner, Marc Cocco, is rebuilding it. It's in alpha now: sign-ups opened on October 15, 2026, and progress will be reset before the full launch. Players must be 18 or older.

Logo files

PNG files with transparent backgrounds, 2400 pixels wide unless noted. Right-click a preview, or use the download link under it.

Do

  • Use the files as they are, at any size that keeps the tagline readable.
  • Leave space around the logo, at least the height of the crown.
  • Use the full-color logo on dark backgrounds, and the black one on light or busy ones.

Don’t

  • Stretch, squash, tilt or recolor it.
  • Add shadows, glows or outlines, or redraw the lettering.
  • Set the name in a black-letter font instead of using the logo. The lettering is drawn by hand.
