Jobs with a price
From picking pockets on the Meir to a hold-up in Het Zuid. Every job costs nerve, pays cash and can land you in a cell.
Antwerp, 1931
The docks pick no side. You do.
Start as a street rat on the Meir and work your way up to Port Father. Districts that pay out, families that want them, and a city that belongs to nobody until somebody takes it.

The game
What is waiting for you
Families and districts
Districts pay out every day. Holding one means defending it against the Havenclan and the Zuiderbende.
A rank you earn
The first fifty levels go quickly. After that every step gets heavier — and there is no ceiling.
What you do
From pickpocket to the vault
Everything runs on nerve, and nerve comes back while you are away. What opens up depends on your level.
Jobs
Eighteen jobs, each with its own minigame. You aim yourself; hit it well and you keep more.
Car theft
Fifteen real models from 1931, with their real figures. Turn the lock before the owner comes back.
Contract killing
Contracts that get harder each time. This is where your weapon counts outside a fight.
Street races
Every night on the quays. Your car does the work, and wears out doing it.
Diamond heist
Once a week a vault opens, at a moment nobody knows. Whoever is there takes a share.
Smuggling routes
Buy low, drive on, sell high. Prices move while you are on the road.
Research
Thirty branches that change your game for good. Paid in information, not money.
Fronts
Covers that keep earning while you sleep. Fifteen percent goes to whoever holds the district.

Before you start
Frequently asked questions
What is Port Father?
A free online crime game set in the Antwerp docks of 1931. You start as a street rat, run jobs, steal cars, join a family and try to get districts into your hands. You play alongside everyone else who is online at that moment.
Does it cost anything?
No. You make an account and you play. Diamonds are an extra: they skip waiting times and give you a little more room. You will get there without them, it just takes longer.
Do I have to install anything?
No. It runs in any browser, on your phone just as well as on your computer. Add the page to your home screen and it behaves like an app.
How much time does it take?
As much as you like. Your nerve grows back while you are away and your businesses keep running. Ten minutes a day is enough to make progress; put in more and you go faster.
Which languages can I play in?
Dutch, English and French. You pick the language at the top of the page and can switch at any time without losing anything.
How do I start?
Pick a username, give an email address and you are in the city straight away — no confirmation mail needed. Your first jobs are open from the start.
The port does not wait.
Start as a street rat on the Eilandje. Where you end up is up to you.
