171 is an open world action adventure game with a Brazilian inspired ambience.
Developed by Betagames Group · Published by Betagames Group









171 is an open-world action sandbox set in a city inspired by Brazilian neighborhoods. You play as Nicolau and choose how to spend your time in the city.
Earn money through delivery work, rides, bus driving, street sweeping, or paramedic work, or take on criminal jobs and confront rival factions. You can steal vehicles, attract police attention, claim territory, and recruit criminals for further ventures.
Use your earnings to buy vehicles and properties that generate rental income. Customize cars, motorcycles, weapons, and Nicolau’s appearance; food, gym training, and other choices also affect his body. The game is described as an alpha Early Access project, so its content and mechanics may change.
In the supplied reviews, players who enjoy 171 most often praise its Brazilian-inspired setting and the freedom to make their own activities, especially taking jobs, getting into crime, and dealing with police. Some also find the sandbox fun despite its rough or incomplete state, while others say the limited activities and technical problems quickly undermine that enjoyment.
171 presents a vibrant city full of opportunities, allowing you to decide where to go and what to do in a broad environment inspired by typically Brazilian scenarios. Every detail and element in the setting have been carefully designed to provide a sense of familiarity to the player.

From humble neighborhoods to middle-class areas and regions with vegetation, all inspired by Brazilian cities, you will have the chance to explore a vibrant city full of honest and dishonest opportunities. Make your choices and carve your own path to conquer your space in this lively city!

Driving a fast car is amazing, but customizing your vehicle with sound systems, wheels, and lowering it is even better. How about changing mirrors, colors, wheels, and adding a luggage rack to your motorcycle before parading through the city? If you prefer, you can also strip down your motorcycle and ride boldly through the city!
Don't be surprised to come across a white van performing suspicious services on the map. In it, you will have the opportunity to customize your firearms, making them even more powerful than they already are. Whether adding extended magazines, lasers, suppressors, or choosing an exceptional skin to display your style during confrontations.
By now, you've probably noticed that you can customize your car, motorcycle, and even your weaponry. So, what are you waiting for to choose clothes and accessories and walk stylishly through the streets? Access the clothing store and choose from various types and models of clothes and accessories to customize the appearance of your character! Identity goes beyond what you wear. Now you can fully shape your style: visit the barbershop to adjust your haircut and beard, or head to the tattoo studio to engrave your attitude on your skin. Beyond that, your body reflects your journey; the hunger system demands constant attention, and your choices at food stands can make you gain or lose weight. If you want to impose yourself on the streets, the gym is the right place to build muscle mass and transform your physique, ensuring that Nicolau is always ready for the city's challenges.
In a city full of possibilities, you can choose how to earn your money. You can opt to work honestly doing different types of deliveries, give rides across the map, or serve the community in new roles such as bus driver, street sweeper, and paramedic. Honest success allows you to visit dealerships to buy your vehicles legitimately and invest in properties scattered across the map to generate profits through rent. On the other hand, you can also choose the life of crime, taking on dangerous jobs such as drug deliveries, debt collection, or confronting the city's factions. Instead of negotiating, you can simply steal the vehicles you want, but remember that every choice has its price and crime doesn't go unnoticed. Claim your territory, take control of criminal operations, collect your profits, and recruit other criminals to help you on new ventures. However, be careful, as law enforcement is always watching for those who step outside the law!
