Our take on Definitely Not Fried Chicken
Rather than centering on one legitimate business, this management sim pairs storefront operations with an illegal production and distribution network. Its structure connects facility layout, staff needs, research, and customer-facing businesses.
What is Definitely Not Fried Chicken?
This business management sim puts an illegal drug trade and its legitimate fronts under one operation.
Build a production compound, expand it onto adjoining land, arrange production lines, and set up distribution routes. Research different strains of marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamine, while reinforcing the compound against intruders. Establish storefronts such as fried chicken shops, laundromats, and nightclubs, and sell legal goods alongside the illegal trade. Different locations serve customers with different tastes. Hire and fire workers, assign tasks, and provide facilities such as washrooms and a place to eat. The game is set in a sunlit city during the 1980s.
