Games like Torn (with a different theme)

Torn (Torn City) is a long-running text-based crime game, loved for its player-run economy, energy-based play sessions and fair membership model. If those are the parts you love, but you would like a calmer theme, here are options.

Fish of Ganymede

A persistent browser game about breeding and trading alien fish. It borrows what works in Torn: short sessions built around energy that refills over time, a market run by players, and a fair money model where membership and points never buy power (nothing for sale changes genes or creates fish). The world never resets, so long-term goals stay meaningful.

You dive to six ocean depths, breed for rare genes, sell to other players or offer studs, and compete in the weekly fish show and leaderboards. Play free in your browser.

Other browser games with a player economy
