What is Definitely Not Fried Chicken?
This single-player management sim takes place in a sunny 1980s city, where you run a drug operation behind legal businesses. From an isometric view, you expand across plots of land, lay out production facilities and storefronts, manage workers and distribution routes, and research new drugs.

- +you enjoy building supply chains and managing workers in detail
- +you like crime-themed sandboxes with dark humor
Not for you if...
- −you prefer light management over detailed staff scheduling
