Vile Monarch, creator behind Oh Sir: The Insult Simulator, has revealed that it's launching Weedcraft Inc. for PC next year via Steam, otherwise known as 'the burgeoning legal pot industry's first fully fledged tycoon game.'
You play as a chap who just dropped out of business school, and decide to team up with your brother, who has been growing marijuana for your now-deceased father, to kick off a thriving business in the production and distribution of various strains of bud.
Well, what else did you expect, really?
There's more to Weedcraft Inc. than supply and demand, though. Vile Monarch also says that the game will shine the spotlight on the 'financial, political, and cultural aspects' of America's 'complex relationship' with marijuana.
You'll have to work hard at the process, too. When you initially start out you won't have much more than a tiny basement workplace to your name, and just one strain of weed. However, once you start raking in the cash, you can expand your marijuana-making exploits by growing more strains and investing in other things like light bulbs, an air filter, and more.
If things go too well expect some attention from the Old Bill, who will rock up at your door and potentially even seize your hard work. The good news is you can set up meetings with influential political figures as your profile expands, affording you the chance of working together an even rolling out new marijuana laws.
Weedcraft Inc. has yet to attract a concrete release date, but we'll keep you posted.
