Weedcraft Inc explores the business of producing, breeding and selling weed in America, delving deep into the financial, political and cultural aspects of the country's complex relationship with this troublesome and promising plant.
Would-be marijuana moguls will need to prioritize resources carefully as they manage the production and distribution of their weed. Cultivate killer plants, cross-breed them to create unique strains of the devil’s lettuce, hire and manage a growing staff, and be prepared to take on the competition. As in real life, the business of bud presents plenty of opportunity along with a plethora of problems. Decide when and where to take on extra risk to maximize profit, but be careful, the cops and politicians are all working their own angles.
An important, controversial topic presented in an insightful and detailed manner, Weedcraft Inc presents a challenge to those who would rule the reefer, offering a series of diverse scenarios and unique characters to work with (or around) as your budding empire grows. Whether you choose to hobnob with politicians, pay off the police, fight for medical marijuana rights or work the legal system, it’s all in the name of the sticky icky and your cutthroat corporate profits.

“Are you a cop?” - IGN
“Weedcraft could have gone in a similar direction by trying to glamorize or idolize the rise of a drug dealer, but Alexander and Vile Monarch are going for a more authentic tone, one that is uniquely American.” - Destructoid
“Weedcraft Inc. presents a complex set of challenges that reflect the real-world tribulations of the topic” - Gamereactor
“From Main Street to Wall Street Weedcraft Inc Helps You Build Your Pot Empire This April.” - TweakTown
