I havnt registerd yet but the first thing I reckon is wrong - It might just be my computer- but the screen shots... they are blury, you cant see what it says on them.

I've seen better organised ones. You could place the tactics eg. drugs, crime etc on the top so you don't waste so much space.

Dude. next to the "do stuff". Can't you see that?

What about a heading? The design is too simple. how successful your game is, depends on the location of links/items. I think you should get rid of options, rather than add. Each separate page has virtually nothing on it. Try linking common items with each other and place it on one page.

Have a look at this text based game. It may influence you.

Also, the screenshots are important. Its what brings people to your site.

To some people the gameplay must not be important since the screenshots are so blurry. Is it going to be that much more in bandwidth cost that you can't use a higher resolution screenshot?

Have you done work on registering users? For some reason I was not able to register to see the rest of the site. If you haven't got registering users worked out, don't worry about it. You might want to come up with a name for the game. Don't rush into it though. A name is one of the most important parts of a game. Any how, good luck with this. If you do find a name for the game, try something like I've done with my tutorial web site. (See the link in my sig if you are interested in seeing it.) I actually got the idea from a tutorial in the SEO tutorial section here on DIC, by no2pencil I believe.

What about a title for each page? you have a few spelling errors in your site. Be sure that you check your site for any leaks and errors because that will turn visitors away from your site. eg. Login page, when login success, success is spelled succes.
