Dope Wars
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dope Wars is a turn-based strategy computer game in which the player simulates the role of a drug dealer. The game's objective is to eliminate all competitors and build a monopoly on illegal narcotics.
There have been various incarnations of this game. There are web-based versions of the game, a version for cell phones, a version for Palm handhelds, a version for calculators, a Mac OS X client version (see external links), a Windows client version, a Linux client, and a version for the Mac OS X Dashboard. There have been reports of spyware bundled with the Windows client. The object of the game is to deal the most drugs to pay off the "Loan Shark", who, of course charges interest, by the end of the game and make a profit. If you do not pay off the loan shark, he breaks both of your legs.
