HOW TO PLAY
DopeWars — a strategy trading game
THE BASICS
You are a street-level drug dealer trying to build an empire. Buy low, sell high, and survive long enough to cash out.
Each session is a run — you stake DopeUSD, hit the streets, trade across cities, and return to the safehouse to settle your profits.
GETTING STARTED
Create a Posse
Your crew name. One-time setup. Casual players get 5,000 DopeUSD to start.
Get DopeUSD
Earn some DopeUSD by visiting every day, or recruit Posse members to get a bonus.
Hit the Streets
Choose a city and stake DopeUSD to enter a session. Higher risk cities have more volatile prices.
Trade
Buy drugs from the market. Travel to other cities to sell at better prices. Use your moves wisely.
Settle Up
End your session to return to the safehouse. Your DopeUSD (plus profits) is returned to your wallet.
CITIES
6 cities, each with different risk levels and price modifiers.
You can travel between cities during a session using moves. Each session starts with 5 moves.
CHARACTERS
Recruit characters to boost your operations. Each character has a class that determines their primary stat.
Recruiting costs DopeUSD and requires an active session. Cost doubles with each recruit.
ON-CHAIN vs CASUAL
Wallet Mode (On-Chain)
Connect a Solana wallet. DopeUSD is a real Token-2022 token staked on-chain. Sessions are settled via a Solana transaction. Your funds are always recoverable on-chain even if the server is down.
Casual Mode (Guest)
No wallet needed. Balances are tracked in the database. Great for trying the game — no gas fees, no setup.
