Has potential, but not there yet
This is a pretty decent concept. It's like Tropico but with the addition of drugs. The game has a concept of clean vs. dirty money. All money comes dirty and can be laundered through various businesses. Clean money can be spent like in any other sim, but dirty money has to be manually delivered. This adds an interesting dimension to the game because dirty money represents a logistical challenge, since it is delivered to every business the player operates, just like a raw input, but the player can choose to use clean money instead and forego the logistics. This game is basically unplayable in its current state. You earn a wanted level (called Terror) which brings different levels of authorities to your business, a la GTA. It starts with customs agents investigating/seizing goods and ends with the military assaulting your facilities and seizing them. If the army seizes any building, it will shut down every other building in a small radius around it. It will also seize any of your lieutenants within that radius. To unseize the lieutenants and buildings, one must wait for a cool down timer + pay a fine. And this is where the game breaking behavior strikes: ithe fines are prohibitively expensive to pay. A single building costs $250,000 in clean money to unseize. For reference, the best money laundering building I've found so far can launder $30k every 8 game days, this is about every 4 minutes of game play at max speed. And you can build 3-5 of these per city. I ended up in a situation where I owed $5,000,000 in fines while paying salaries for 6 lieutenants frozen from a siege. It would be faster to just start over than to try and buy back all of my buildings. Also, it seems that there's no way to actually stop the army from coming once you hit a certain terror level. While you can lower you terror level by paying clean money, it doesn't seem to stop the more powerful enemies. So, it's a good game, but needs another year of development time.
