Vile Monarch and Devolver Digital are teaming up to create a ganja growing business management sim called Weedcraft Inc.

Players will get a chance to grow their own pot empire by cultivating and crossbreeding plants to create new strains, establishing production and distribution chains, and hiring staff to help manage the business as it expands – and enable smokers to keep creating usernames like xX4201337G4m3RXx.

The game will also get into the political aspects of marijuana growing, as you’ll often be required to work with local politicians to ensure the industry has the legal right to continue operations without intervention from federal law enforcement agencies. You can find the announcement trailer above.

Weedcraft Inc will release for Windows PC and Mac sometime next year.

Here’s a rundown of the game:

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 Mary Jane 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 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 po-po, 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.
