There are a total of 60 Contract Missions available to all levels.
Contract Missions are general mission sets that are not focused on any particular city or event, but rather are designed to take you on a journey through different aspects of the game.
All missions unlock in the order displayed unless otherwise indicated. Note: the order displayed below was the original release order. Sometime later several of these missions were removed by Zynga as a result of various tasks no longer being possible to complete (due to city closures, etc), some reordering also occurred at that time but no new additions or task alternations took place.
"Hello PLAYER. My name's Sam Hadwick. There's a sting operation being launched against you and me. Let's team up and take 'em on." - Sam Hadwick
"You do good work, PLAYER. Hope you don't mind if I send some other folks your way. Mostly friends of mine, and all of them pay very well for services rendered." - Sam Hadwick
Take out 6 Undercover Cops in New York. (Requires 2)
"So we've had a lot of unexpected violence against our operations lately. Turns out we've got some thugs on the prowl with heavy weapons. Crush them." - Auria Wilson
"Well done. You've got the killer touch." - Auria Wilson
"Hey there PLAYER. You've heard of Vastola, right? He's powerful and ruthless, and he's been interfering with my operations lately. Let's put him in his place" - Sam Hadwick
"There you go. Nice start stepping all over his guys. You know that means they're coming after us now with a vengeance." - Sam Hadwick
"A lot of Vastola's operations have to do with import and export. If we can get a foothold at the ports, it would give us a lot of leverage to use against him." - Sam Hadwick
"Excellent. Now nothing gets on or off a boat without us knowing." - Sam Hadwick
"PLAYER, glad you can help me. I caught wind that the FBI is on to my operation and yours, too. Destroy their evidence to buy us some time." - Henry Lam
"That was a hell of a fight, but we got it. Now that we have the access codes, we just need to get the documents." - Henry Lam
"I have teams working all over to recover evidence they've gathered against us, but breaking into their headquarters is going to be tough. Hope you're game. " - Henry Lam
"Good work. All the hard copy evidence is burned. All that remains is the backups which are stored electronically. Know any good hackers?" - Henry Lam
"After we do a few favors we'll gain a team of the best hackers around. With the codes we've already gathered, they should have no trouble clearing our records. " - Henry Lam
"Haha, we did it. All the allegations against us just went up in digital smoke. Should take them a few years to recreate it. Nice going. " - Henry Lam
"Alright PLAYER you want to know where the big bucks are? Fraud. Insurance fraud. I know it doesn't sound exciting, but wait til you check your bank balance. . " - Auria Wilson
"Great. See, what did I tell you? This is how you get rich." - Auria Wilson
"Ok PLAYER. This guy Gustavo, he's being a real pain in the ass. Doesn't want to cut me in on any of the deals he's making in my territory. Might take some bullying, got the stomach for it?" - Sam Hadwick
"Ha ha. Nicely done. You really know what you're doing. Take your reward." - Sam Hadwick
"The Bell Tower is one of the biggest casinos in Vegas. But it has some serious skeletons in its closets. If we could uncover their secrets, they'd pay us a lot to stay quiet." - Michelle Paulis
"I didn't expect retaliation so quickly! Good thing you were around to shake off that assassin." - Michelle Paulis
"We're on to something. Now we need some documents for proof. I'll do what I can to distract them, but you'll have to get the info we need by yourself." - Michelle Paulis
"Fantastic! A little blackmail goes a long way. Thanks for your help. Be seeing you." - Michelle Paulis
"Marco Gordon will do anything to save his son's life. I need information that only he can give me. Use the kid for leverage, but don't hurt him." - Daniel Kade
"Good work. We got to get Marco to crack next. Let him sweat a bit first." - Daniel Kade
"I've just gotten word that Marco is stalling to give his assassins time to take us down. Let's show him he has no choice but to do as we say." - Daniel Kade
"Excellent work! Here, take this for your troubles. And watch your back in case Marco plans a follow up." - Daniel Kade
"Usually I can manage these kinds of operations on my own, but I'm right in the middle of another job. Care to help me move some "antiques"?" - Henry Lam
"Good work. You stashed everything away to make sure it slips safely through customs. Smart." - Henry Lam
"The police are raiding your warehouse! You'll need to fight them off to give us enough time to recover the goods. We can't lose this stuff." - Henry Lam
"Watch out! The cops are following us. Get lost, and I'll contact you when I can. We have to deliver the Wooden Boxes." - Henry Lam
"Ah, there you are. You want to help out an ally of mine? Consider it a favor to me. They have some guys giving them trouble. Soften them up." - Sam Hadwick
"Way to go, PLAYER. Here's a small reward." - Sam Hadwick
"People like to pretend to be honorable, but everyone has a price. District Attorney Natalie Sanchez knows a little too much about our operations. Pay her off and shut her up." - Rosario Dominquez
"So she took the check but wants some favors done too? Jeez, and I thought criminals were greedy. So what now?" - Rosario Dominquez
"Okay, this is ridiculous. Sanchez needs to be shown who she's messing with. And make sure this hits close to home." - Rosario Dominquez
"Nice going. Sanchez caved. Now she has a healthy respect for dealing with our organization. Let's hope we don't have to go through that again." - Rosario Dominquez
"I'm usually a behind-the-scenes guy who focuses on the money. But I want revenge. A ship called "Red Sunset" just sailed away with my cargo, and I want it back." - Henry Lam
"There it is, on the horizon. Good work tracking her down." - Henry Lam
"Hey PLAYER. I'd like your help with something. There's a group we used to be tight with, but it's been years since we collaborated. I'd like to renew our alliance." - Tim Lee
"Good thinking. Taking down some of their enemies will surely get their attention." - Tim Lee
"Now that you're dealing with them directly, we can work on fighting side by side. Still, there is much trust to be earned. Please do not disappoint me." - Tim Lee
"You fight honorably. They will certainly notice your zeal." - Tim Lee
"This will be the hardest challenge yet, but after this there will be no question of our dedication. A powerful ally is only a few steps away." - Tim Lee
"It is done. Good work. You have my thanks. Please take these gifts." - Tim Lee
"Hi PLAYER, you want in on a little job? Basically we have our fingers in the cookie jar already, just need someone to help us move the cookies. And by cookies I mean millions of dollars." - Michelle Paulis
"Well, well, PLAYER. You've earned quite a reputation as a marksman. Get some unmarked weapons and help me pay a visit to an old 'friend.'" - Sam Hadwick
"You did better than I expected. I'll let you know if I need any more help." - Sam Hadwick
"I need your help, PLAYER. My brother Juan is about to get a life sentence. I'll make it worth your while to change the jury's mind." - Rosario Dominquez
"You've done good work, so far. Keep at it. We're not in the clear yet." - Rosario Dominquez
"PLAYER, lets cut to the chase. A drug lord named Wong set up a warehouse in our territory. We tried to deal with him professionally, but he refused. It's time for harsher methods." - Auria Wilson
"The first part of our plan needs funding, so it's good you're prepared." - Auria Wilson
Collect from your Warehouse 2 times. (You can collect from Warehouse every 10 hours)
"Oh hi, PLAYER. You heard about the recent gunfight downtown? I may have had something to do with that. Help me remove the evidence from the scene." - Tim Lee
"Excellent work. You found the guns we ditched. Just to be sure, can you get them out of here?" - Tim Lee
"We have an opportunity to make a killing, figuratively speaking. An arms dealer needs some help setting up shop. He's willing to give us a cut of the profits." - Auria Wilson
"Great, he's all set up. Keep an eye on the operation until it gets off the ground." - Auria Wilson
"Turns out this guy has made a few enemies, and they don't like him working with us. Keep the operation safe and start manufacturing weapons." - Auria Wilson
"Good job. That was close. Too close." - Auria Wilson
"Bob Burton used to be a friend of mine. Lately though we've had a falling out and he's coming after my operations. I want to take him down a notch." - Sam Hadwick
"Blackmail? Not really my style, but its better than nothing. What have you got?" - Sam Hadwick
"So far you've put together a good strategy. But we're going to need more dirt before we can make a real threat. Why don't you track down Burton's soldiers and see what you can get from them?" - Sam Hadwick
"If you won the fight, I'd hate to see the other guy. Put some ice on that eye. Good work, by the way." - Sam Hadwick
"So you tracked down Bob's mistress in Italy? That's good. Real good. Get some evidence and I'll have something to throw his way, get him off my back." - Sam Hadwick
"You should have seen Burton's face. Thanks for all your hard work. I won't have to worry about him no more." - Sam Hadwick
There are a total of 17 extra contract missions available only to players level 100+. These missions do not come before or after the other contract missions, but are available as a separate mission sequence of their own.
This second set of contract missions was released shortly after Trader Goh's Pawn Shop, and immediately introduces us to Goh and his Pawnshop.
On August 2nd, 2011 Zynga posted a blog entry entitled 'D-List Missions To Be Removed Soon' in which they explained that, in order to make room for new Family Missions, they would be removing these D-List Missions. The blog explained that the missions falling into this category would be those considered the most difficult, and receiving the least player attention. Level 100+ Contract Missions fell into this category and were given a timer and subsequently removed on August 5th, 2011.
However popular belief is that they were actually just removed because they required tasks involved the recently over-run Bangkok and removing the mission set was easier than modifying the set to auto-complete those tasks or dealing with customer support tickets from players.
All missions unlock in the order displayed unless otherwise indicated.
"Hey PLAYER, have you heard of a little shop called Trader Goh's? Go pay it a visit. And keep in mind the old man has a soft spot for explosives." - Daniel Kade
"Goh's a character, right? He might seem pretty light-hearted, but don't let that fool you. Stay on his good side and you'll be rewarded very, very well." - Daniel Kade
"I keep all the good stuff in the backroom... wait? What's this? I've been robbed! Please, help me learn who has done this. They stole something very important!" - Trader Goh
"Show me the clue you uncovered. A claw shaped pendant? Hm. Take this to Daniel, he might know more. I'm still cleaning my poor shop." - Trader Goh
"They ransacked Trader Goh's? Show me the pendant. Oh, I know who did this. And I know why, too. Pack your bags, we're taking a trip." - Daniel Kade
"The Tiger Claw Gang are some of the most advanced criminals on the planet. I never thought they'd find Goh, which is why he was holding something for me in his shop." - Daniel Kade
"As you can imagine, the Tiger Claw Gang like animals. They have a private zoo. Let's pose as animal traders and steal back what they took from Goh." - Daniel Kade
"It's a fake! I gave Goh a priceless samurai sword to hold onto, which I thought the Tiger Claw Gang took. Damn it, Goh fooled us!" - Daniel Kade
You receive a phone call: "Hello Brad. Sorry I wasn't honest, but Daniel cannot be trusted. Can you? If so, ditch him and meet me at the Dockyard tonight. Come alone!" - Trader Goh
"Ah, PLAYER, I had a feeling about you. This is bigger than Daniel Kade knows, and after you had served his purpose he was going to sell you out too. Want to know the truth of why my store was broken into?" - Trader Goh
"The antique sword Kade spoke of is actually a code word: SWRD. Stealth Warfare Research & Development. It's a personal cloaking device made by the military!" - Trader Goh
"Good work protecting it. Why don't you hang onto it for a while, keep it safe for me?" - Trader Goh
"I've heard a woman named Kendra Luke is leading an effort to take you to court. They also have evidence to indict me. That's why I'm here to tip you off." - Tim Lee
"Hello again, PLAYER. You much of a hunter? Doesn't matter. Erik Cannata is. Let's spruce up our Private Zoo to lure him into an ambush." - Sam Hadwick
"The hunter became the hunted. Survival of the fittest strikes again. Here's your reward." - Sam Hadwick
"There's a Mafia Don I'm trying to form an alliance with. His kid loves animals. If you could show him around your Private Zoo, it would really help me out." - Henry Lam
"That's why I like you, PLAYER. I know you'll always come through. Thanks again." - Henry Lam
"So PLAYER, I've planted an operative inside a major casino in Vegas. She's ready to begin looting the place, but we need some help moving the money. You in?" - Henry Lam
"You got out without a scratch. Nice! Here's to you." - Henry Lam
"I've learned that my operations in Italy are being threatened. Trespassers are sabotaging the vineyards. If you fight them off, I'll owe you." - Daniel Kade
"Great work, but we were a little too late. They made off with a ton of my stuff." - Daniel Kade
"I'm here to bring you a message: a full blown Mafia War has been launched against your organization. I'm offering my services as a spy." - Michelle Paulis
