The name "Doxapolis" stems from the two greek words "Doxa" and "Polis" which mean "Glory" and "City" respectively. Hence, a direct translation would be "City of Glory".
Doxapolis is a unique social gaming portal where you showcase your tastes in the
finer things in life while using your business acumen and street saviness to build
the most formidable empire around. It is what we call a "relaxed strategy interactive
gaming portal".
By "relaxed strategy", we mean you don't have to log hours
and hours of gameplay to be competitive. Everything is simplified and all you have
to do is make wise decisions to get ahead. It is built for gamers and non-gamers
alike, basically any one with social networking experience and some business acumen
can become a Doxapolis dignitary.
Items and activities in Doxapolis are designed to mimic the real-world in a more dynamic environment that quickly exposes you to "enjoyable risk". You get to showcase, trade, and own clothing, accessories, interior design, cars, real estate and even companies if you (and friends) are that good.
You are also provided with various social tools to interact with friends and competitors: chatrooms, newsfeeds, raffles, gifts, flashgames and a forum to name a few.
