Mulerun – Retro Bootlegger Simulator

The CIA gave you a place to live on a tropical island. They also gave you an ankle monitor.
Welcome to the 1980s.
Mulerun is a first-person bootlegger simulator about building an illegal liquor business under the watchful eye of the people who know your past. Start with empty pockets and basic distilling equipment. Earn your first customers, expand your operation, and work your way from local deliveries to smuggling flights.
Play solo or share the work with up to 4 players in online co-op.
FROM FRUIT TO FIRST PAYDAY
Pick fruit and sell it to afford your first supplies—or save some for a batch of something stronger. Your grandfather’s recipe book offers a starting point. Turning those recipes into a living takes equipment, ingredients, and a little patience.
Buy what you need, bring it home, and put your first production setup to work.

BREW IT. BOTTLE IT. SELL IT.
Fill fermentation barrels, transfer the mash, assemble your still, and fire up the heat. Bottle your liquor, cap it, and pack it into crates for delivery.
This is hands-on work. Every batch has to make its way from raw ingredients to a customer’s doorstep. Reinvest your earnings in better equipment and expand your production as demand grows.
BUILD YOUR ISLAND BUSINESS
Find customers, take orders through your pager, and arrange deliveries around your production schedule.
Carry your first goods on foot, save for a moped, and work toward a pickup that can haul a worthwhile load. More transport means bigger opportunities—and more money tied up in whatever you’re carrying.
YOUR BRACELET HAS OTHER PLANS
The CIA expects you to stay within reach. Your ambitions extend a little further.
Find a way around your ankle monitor and open up routes beyond your permitted area. Leaving the zone creates opportunities, but keeping your movements hidden becomes another part of running the business.
TAKE THE CONTROLS
Rent an aircraft, fuel it, load your cargo, and fly it yourself. Takeoffs, navigation, and landings are your responsibility.
Your flying skills attract attention. The CIA has reconnaissance work. The cartel has cargo that pays well. Taking work from both means protecting more than your profit: neither side should discover the whole story.
SHARE THE WORK
Run the operation alone or divide the jobs with friends. One player tends the still while another handles deliveries and a third prepares the next flight.
You share the money, the workload, and the consequences when a promising job goes wrong.
