You begin in a cramped, dirty hideout selling on the street and work your way up through a criminal business. Growth comes from taking over territory, recruiting minions, running labs and training staff, while you smuggle in goods from outside cartels and try not to attract the police. Nothing in the underworld is easy, and the risks climb along with the profits.
Developer Byterunners added seven free updates after release, bringing new locations, effects, mechanics and characters. This is a single-player simulation with a mature subject and a business-ladder structure, and it suits players who enjoy climbing from nothing in a dark setting. A co-op sequel exists separately.
