About කොළඹපුර

කොළඹපුර (Kolambapura) is a browser based open world game set in a Sri Lankan city, and it is Sinhala the whole way down. Not an English game with Sinhala subtitles: the menus, the mission briefings, the street signs, the radio chatter and the character dialogue were all written in Sinhala first.

You start with රු. 500 and a city you can drive across in any direction. Ten story missions run through it, and between them the streets are yours to explore, with traffic, pedestrians, police who take an interest if you give them a reason, and cash and pickups scattered across the map.

It runs on WebGL with no install and no plugin, and it is built and hosted independently of this platform, connected through the standard game bridge like every other game in the catalogue.

How to play

Drive with W A S D and steer the camera with the mouse. Press F to get in and out of a vehicle.

Follow the marker on the minimap to reach the next mission. Health drops if you take damage, and cash pickups are scattered around the city. Getting wasted or busted costs you a share of your money, so it is worth driving carefully once you are carrying a lot.

Your progress saves in your browser, so you can close the tab and pick the story back up later.

Frequently asked questions

Is the game really all in Sinhala?

Yes. Every piece of text in the game was written in Sinhala rather than translated into it, including the mission briefings and the street signage. There is no English language option.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It runs in the browser using WebGL. A recent desktop browser and a keyboard and mouse will do.

Can I play it on a phone?

Not well. The game is built around a keyboard and mouse and expects a landscape screen, so a laptop or desktop is the way to play it.

Does my progress save?

Yes, in your own browser. Clearing your site data for the game will clear the save.

How do you spell කොළඹපුර in English?

Kolambapura. කොළඹ is the Sinhala name for Colombo and පුර means city, so the name reads as "Colombo city". You will also see it written Kolombapura or Kolompura, and all of them mean this game.
