Justice Served Your Way

What’s your idea of justice? Should the punishment always fit the crime, or do some people deserve to be made an example of? Are you a straight laced crime fighter threatening the freedom of hardened criminals, or are a cold-blooded killer, waxing j-walkers and speeding drivers? With Vigilante 3, that decision is left with you. Be part of the problem, or the solution.

There are hundreds of unique NPC stories to investigate, and our NPC Story Generator lets you create in-game scenarios based on your own experiences. Ever been bullied? Threatened by a bill collector? Harassed by a rookie cop? Virtual revenge is available!  By creating your own story arc, you not only get to decide who deserves your brand of justice, but also what form it comes in. Choose your punishments - From a simple threat, mark, or black eye to something more stringent like a stabbing, robbery, or killing. You can see your stories manifested in game where you'll get the chance to take control of the situation. Wanted to give that guy that cut you off a beating? Not only can you get that opportunity, but you can observe how other players react under the same circumstances. Find the link below to write your own story arc, it's fun and easy and you can submit as many as you like!

### 3/5 — Decisions Are Hard In this Game

*2022-11-20, version 1.2.9*

The only thing I don’t like about this game is that it makes it hard to tell who the criminals are and who’s innocent cuz I attacked someone in the game and I got a message saying something like “the system has detected that you are targeting innocent people.” I wish they would make it easier to tell the criminals apart from the innocent in this game

### 3/5 — One thing

*2021-12-19*

The game is fun in some areas, can take a minute to understand. But sometimes when starting a fight the timer will tick to 0 and nothing happens meaning you have to quit out the game, and it can be really annoying to lower the crime rates in districts

### 5/5 — miss this game

*2021-06-25, version 1.2.7*

This game used to be so fun me and my brother would play everyday it would be awesome if they made a vigilante 4!! The only complaint I have is now there’s ad’s on the game and that literally makes it unplayable for me.

### 1/5 — Won’t play

*2019-08-23, version 1.2*

Every time app opens it says network error couldn’t load server ... I have tried on Mobil next work with great reception I have tried on WiFi neither works ... I think maybe the game is now obsolete? Which is a bummer take it off the App Store if it no longer works

### 3/5 — Bug Problem Interfering with Gameplay

*2019-06-12, version 1.2*

This game is one of my favorites, I love sitting down and playing it but lately I’ve noticed a problem when I’m playing. Twice I’ve investigated a citizen and declared them both innocent. Both times the game froze and so I closed the game and reopened it. As soon as the game is on screen, it says I’m attacking the civilian I just declared as innocent. If there is a way to fix this I would appreciate it. Thank you.

### 1/5 — Just crashes

*2018-12-18*

Never starts

### 1/5 — fix yah game

*2018-10-14*

won’t even start up loads up start screen then crashes smhh

### 4/5 — Missed Game

*2018-07-11, version 1.0*

Glad you brought it back!

Also, please fix the profile crash! Each time i click profile, i crash. Everything else seems fine.

### 4/5 — This game is great but...

*2018-03-03, version 1.0*

This game is lovely but I deleted it awhile back because of storage issues and I am unable to get my account back.

### 2/5 — Being attacked

*2017-05-02, version 1.0*

So I literally started this game 2 days ago and its decent, not really to fun, but they today a level 222 guy (im level 6) from the top crew attacks every single person in the crew I am in at the same time to steal everyones money. And there it absolutely nothing you can do about it. How unfair and broken is that. Before it happened I only had 6 thousand in cash so I bought some single use items but how could I even save up money if this is going to happen?
