The Cartel is a massive multiplayer online game that takes the concept and feel behind modern crime action games and brings it to the platform in an exciting multiplayer game. It has been one of the most anticipated games of the year, over 8 months in development. 

Some of the main features of the game are:

- In-game world economy 
- Ability to acquire wealth through the development of commodities 
- Perform actions to increase your status and wealth 
- Interact with other players through a chat system and in-game forums
- Join Crews with friends and allies 
- Form real Cartels with other Crews that benefit everybody
- Target and fight your enemies directly
- Use the Player Marketplace to barter your way to the top 
- Buy and equip a variety of items to enable Actions and enhance your character’s ability 
- Fight your way to the top individually, or using your Cartel’s power 
- Recognition for being on top by being listed in the Top Users 

The Cartel is completely different from all the Mafia clones. We concentrated our efforts on making an accurate portrayal of real life underworlds. Our game economy, production and marketplace works just like the real world. The Cartel features all the best features put together in a tight and complete package. 
Our social system is engaging and logical; we don't believe in popularity driven, invite systems to grow unmanageable, unrelated mobs.

Please Note: 
This game is an online game only. Ipod Touch users will need to be connected to WIFI to connect to the game.
