Not every confrontation in GangCity is about life and death. Through Minigames you challenge other players to a fair match — no money, no bullets, only honor. What you do earn is street cred: a separate rating that determines how high you rank on the leaderboard and which title you can carry.
Four games, one leaderboard
Under Minigames you choose from four classics:
- Rock-Paper-Scissors — the fastest option, decided in a single move.
- Tic-Tac-Toe — the well-known grid game, taking turns picking a square.
- Battleship — hide your fleet and try to find your opponent's.
- Connect Four — drop discs and try to be first to make a row of four.
All four count toward the same street cred rating and the same leaderboard; you choose which game suits you best.
Challenging someone
You challenge an opponent by typing in a name, or you pick from suggested players: people you've recently played that game against, players who actively play the game, or players who are currently online. The challenged player responds whenever it suits them — only then is the match played. An unanswered challenge expires after 2 days, and you can have a maximum of 5 of your own challenges open at once. Against the same opponent, there's always only one match at a time running per game.
Street cred: your own honor rating
Street cred works like an ELO rating: everyone starts at 1000 points, and that's also the floor — your cred can never drop lower. Beat a stronger opponent, and it earns you more points than beating a weaker one; lose to an underdog, and it costs you relatively more. The system is deliberately slow: climbing takes weeks, not days.
To prevent point farming, a maximum of 3 cred-affecting matches against the same opponent count per 24 hours, and there's a daily cap of +40 net street cred gain. If you keep playing against the same person after that cap is reached, you simply keep playing — it just no longer affects your rating.
Earning titles
From 1200 street cred, a title appears next to your name on the minigames page, which grows with your rating:
- Street Kid — from 1200
- Street Watcher — from 1400
- Street Kapo — from 1700
- Street Baron — from 2000
- King of the Street — from 2400
The leaderboard itself isn't called “Kings of the Street” for nothing: only the consistently strongest players reach the top.
Why join in?
You can't buy street cred and you can't trade it for anything — it's purely about honor and your place on the leaderboard. That makes street duels a low-threshold way to meet other players and prove your strategic insight, without putting money or bullets on the line. A fun change of pace alongside crimes, murders and the fight for titles — and sometimes a round of Connect Four is exactly the break you need.
