Swing through the city, break the mafia
A premium build of Naxeex's superhero sandbox with every shop unlocked and the grind retired, so you can focus on the chase.
What this mod changes
Rope Hero: Mafia City Wars drops you into a sprawling open city overrun by the Shifters gang, where a costumed hero with a rope and a serious arsenal is the only thing standing between civilians and chaos. The base game leans on a steady cash-and-XP grind to unlock the better weapons, vehicles, and outfits. This modded build of version 1.9.0 rewrites that economy. Money is effectively unlimited, so the in-game shop opens up from your first session and every district feels like a free playground.
You still play the whole story campaign Naxeex shipped on Google Play. The missions, side quests, district-capture mode, and zombie arena waves all behave the same. What changes is the pace. Instead of replaying easy quests to afford an SMG, you buy the SMG, the rocket launcher, the sports car, and the rooftop suit in your opening hour and head straight for the harder content. For players who hit the game late or only have weekend windows, that compression is the whole point. If you prefer the slow-burn loop, the Play Store version is still the right pick.
A quick note on the file. The APK below mirrors the 1.9.0 release from April 2026, the same version listed on an1.com and the major mod trackers. The package name matches the official Naxeex listing, the signature is the standard mod-community rebuild, and the file ships as a single universal APK rather than a split bundle, so installing on most Android 9+ phones takes one tap once unknown-sources is on.

What the mod actually unlocks
- Unlimited in-game money
The wallet does not decrement on purchases, so weapons, vehicles, gear, and cosmetic outfits all open from the start screen.
- Gems counter pre-filled
Premium gems are stocked from launch, which removes the grind on rare crates and special skins tied to the gem shop.
- Full weapons + vehicles roster
SMGs, snipers, rocket launchers, sports cars, bikes, and the heavier rides are buyable at level one instead of being level-gated.
- Health and energy stay topped up
Long missions and the Arena zombie waves no longer break on energy timers, which matters when the difficulty curve spikes.
- Ad-free session loops
The reward-ad prompts and forced interstitials are stripped, so the city pacing stays clean between district captures.
- Story + side content intact
Naxeex's campaign, the District Capture map, Arena Challenge zombie mode, and the hidden mini-games all run as shipped.
Install in five steps
- Back up your current save
If you already have the Play Store build installed, open the game's settings and sync your progress to Google Play Games. Modded builds use a separate signature and will not read the official save.
- Uninstall the Play Store version
Long-press the existing Rope Hero icon and choose Uninstall. Same-package mods cannot install over a signed copy from Google.
- Enable installs from unknown sources
Settings > Apps > Special access > Install unknown apps, then allow your browser or file manager. Android 9 and newer all support this toggle.
- Download the modded APK
Tap the green button below to grab the 157 MB universal APK. The file is hosted on our CDN and verified against the SHA-256 we publish in the version history.
- Open the file and install
Tap the downloaded APK in your notifications or Files app, accept the Android installer prompt, then launch the game. The premium economy applies from the title screen.

Modded APKs are distributed by third-party communities, not by Naxeex Action & RPG Games. Installing modified builds typically breaks Google Play Games progress sync, can expose your account to anti-cheat flags in any online mode, and stops receiving official updates until the community rebuilds for each new version. Treat this page as a reference for users who already understand those tradeoffs.
