Padge Plays! Replay Edition - The Dope Game (2016 - CoaguCo Industries) - Let's Play Indie Gameplay
5Welcome to Padge Plays! Replay Edition
In this episode I play The Dope Game by CoaguCo Industries, a modern take on the hugely popular Drug Wars game from yesteryear. In this run through we again play the original 30 day game and try to make as much money as possible while doing whatever we can to evade the police and meet all the "interesting" people on our journey to becoming a big time drug dealer! Do I survive? Do I make any cash at all or do I become Big Henry's plaything in prison? You'll have to watch to find out!
-- ABOUT THE GAME --
The Straight Dope
To escape the city of Starkham and start your new life, you get your friend Preston to set up a meeting with the local loanshark, Sweaty Mike. After foolishly borrowing $2,000 to start your fledgling drug dealing career, you embark on a timed mission to sell as many drugs as possible throughout the city. However, you must evade the police, make sure not to ♥♥♥♥ off the locals too much, and navigate an ever-changing drug market.
Visit locations like Crockfort, Pinky's Gun Emporium, Murphy's Lake, The Noose & Rafter Bar, Hillside, Saint Jaysus Memorial Hospital, and more to interact with people and buy or sell a variety of drugs. Almost everyone you meet can be fought or bartered with in some manner.
The Dope Game, the newest game from CoaguCo Industries, It is a take on John E. Dell's 1984 classic game Drugwars, where the player goes around New York City trying to make as much money as possible selling drugs while evading the police. But this isn't New York City. Or 1984. The Dope Game takes place in the fictional city of Starkham, Blannington, most infamously known from our previous games One Way To Die and Raise Your Own Clone.
