Real Gangster Auto Crime 2020. The worst GTA ripoffs

Last update: September 3, 2020 (Android)

What went wrong: I'm not gonna repeat myself

Real Gangster Auto Crime 2020 – Let me guess: you're comparing the name to the previous game from this list and think it's some sort of a series? Nothing like that – it's simply a trope now on Android, and there's a slew of games such as Real Gangster Street Crime, or Superhero Crime Simulator. Interestingly, I came across this little "gem" by chance, searching for gameplay of the previous game from the list. This time, however, I will leave you with the video of the game itself, which simply moved me – especially the fine voice over! If you have a moment, watch this footage – it's the perfect paradigm of mobile GTA clones of today.

MOBILE GTA CLONES

I'm aware that mobile app stores are veritable mines of GTA copycats. For some authors, it's just a way to make easy money; for some, imitating Rockstar's proven formula is a way to learn a little bit about game dev; and for others still, there's no easy justification. However, the fact remains that GTA has left its mark on all virtual entertainment, and although such imitations are no longer popular on consoles and PCs, the mobile player needs to be on their guard.

It all adds up to show one more thing: That a good idea is not worth much without proper execution.
