Jokejelly joined the Beta Team

We are pleased to welcome JokeJelly as a new Beta Tester in Gambinomafia.

Jokejelly has previously held positions and contributed to Gambinomafia, and based on his previous experience and familiarity with the game, we have decided to expand the Beta Team by bringing him in as part of the current recruitment process. The need for increased testing capacity, particularly in connection with larger projects currently under development, has also been an important factor in this decision.

Recruitment for the Beta Team is still open.

We are still looking for players who want to actively contribute to testing, provide feedback and help shape the continued development of Gambinomafia. The application deadline remains 04.09.2026 at 12:00, and we encourage anyone interested in the position to submit an application.

Going forward, we also want to be more transparent about changes within our teams. When players take on new roles, we will increasingly highlight these changes through Gambinomafia news posts. This gives the player base better insight into the people contributing behind the scenes, while also building a history of the players who have held different positions and contributed throughout the development of the game.

Interested in joining the Beta Team?

Learn more about the position and submit your application before the deadline:

All amounts divided by 10 to match the euro

With 81% of you voting in favour, we are now completing the switch to euro. Every amount in the game is divided by 10, so the numbers finally match the euro scale.

When we moved from kroner to euro (€), we kept the same numbers, which made prices look disproportionately high. We are now fixing that: money and prices are divided by 10 at the same time. Because everything scales equally, you can still afford exactly what you could before, and your position on the leaderboards is unchanged. Only the numbers get smaller.

In practice, a balance of €5,000 now shows as €500, and an item priced at €1,000 now costs €100. Your purchasing power stays the same, but the numbers become cleaner and more realistic.

We know the new, lower numbers may feel a little unfamiliar at first for those of you who have played for a while. At the same time, the old numbers were hard to relate to for new players from other countries, who are used to euro and real-world values. With the new scale, the amounts sit much closer to real euro prices.

Thanks to everyone who voted and helped us make the decision.

Changes to Kill EXP

Kill EXP is no longer calculated as a percentage of the rank thresholds. Every kill now awards a fixed amount based on the victim's rank, from 500 EXP for a Criminal up to 100,000 EXP at the highest ranks.

The reward increases steadily all the way up the ladder, so a higher-ranked target is always worth more. Overall, kills give less EXP than before and are meant to be a strategic choice rather than the fastest route to a new rank.

Kill The Bot, on the other hand, can award boosted EXP. The value of the bot is set per day, and you can see the amount in the list of scheduled rounds on the Kill The Bot page before a round begins.

Bug - Getting killed costs rank again

Since May 5, for just over three months, it has been possible to get killed without losing any rank or EXP. That was never how it was meant to work, and it has now been fixed.

From now on, being killed once again costs you rank and EXP, exactly as the rules describe. If you get taken out, you drop one rank. Players at the very highest ranks instead lose a fixed amount of EXP rather than a full rank.

The fix applies only to kills from now on. Your current rank stays untouched, so no one drops rank retroactively because of the three months the issue lasted.

Watch your back out there.

Job opening: Available position: Beta-Tester

Beta tests are a player with insight.

Are you curious about technology and enjoy exploring new features before everyone else? Do you notice small details and mistakes that others overlook? Then this could be the role for you.

Direct impact on development through our task system in Trello

Valuable experience with testing and development processes

Recognition for your work and a unique opportunity to impact the end product

Possibility of further development in the team, with potential for roles such as forum moderator, moderator or other responsibilities

Responsibility areas

You contribute to the further development of the game through active testing and constructive feedback. Testing takes place on dedicated test servers, and tasks, findings and improvement suggestions are handled in our Trello system. The role tests the game as a regular player and has no administrative rights.

Requirement

You attend mandatory meetings and notify us of the due date before the meeting starts

You regularly contribute with testing and maintain stable activity

You answer the tag/ping within 24 hours and let us know if you are unavailable

You are comfortable with direct and factual feedback as part of quality assurance

Changes in Management

We would like to inform you that Toro has, at its own request and for personal reasons, chosen to step down as Senior Moderator.

After many years of hard work in management, Toro has chosen to reduce his responsibilities and will therefore continue to serve as Chat and Forum Moderator indefinitely.

Over the years, Toro has been an important part of GambinoMafia. With his dedication, loyalty and contribution to both the development and day-to-day running of the game, he has been a valuable supporter of the management and an important resource for the community.

Although he is now taking a step back, we are very happy that he wants to continue as part of the staff. We also want to thank him very much for the significant efforts he has put in over the years and look forward to continuing to have him with us.

On behalf of the management
