We thought we had experienced all there is in the management/sim genre. From the classic city-building in Cities: Skylines, all the way down into the murky grey waters of marijuana production in Weedcraft Inc.. Klabater – those behind the latter – are back with a similarly illegal empire for you to build up in Moonshine Inc. on Xbox and PlayStation.
Perfect the Formula
Releasing today on Xbox and PlayStation, following a December 2022 PC debut, Moonshine Inc. will have you getting right into the nitty gritty of naughty alcohol production. Seriously, the systems at play here are intense, with you micro-managing more resources than you could care to imagine.
Welcome to the Appalachian mountains, and to your new business venture. Deep within the mountains is the perfect place to start off in the moonshinin’ occupation, with you perfecting the ratio of ingredients, fermentation temperature and the like, without those annoying boys in blue catching up and shutting down the whole operation.
As massive Breaking Bad fans, we can’t help but draw comparisons to the series. You are isolated away in a remote part of the country, starting up as a small producer, before mastering your craft, hiring dozens of employees to do the dirty work, and raking in the millions. Come on Jesse, let’s brew!
Expand Your Empire
When the cashflow is set up, and things are more or less being run in the background, your role will switch from lowly producer to logistical master. Soon enough, you’ll be involved with sourcing the highest quality ingredients, using new recipes, figuring out how to distribute your product. And you’ll do all of this without drawing heat from the authorities. As Klabater like to remind us – ain’t nothin’ illegal… ‘til you get caught!
The sheer amount of stuff to master in Moonshine Inc. is commendable, and it will take many runs of your distilling, purchasing of equipment and the like to finally call yourself the best brewer in the country, and become the Heisenberg of moonshine!
Key Features of Moonshine Inc. on Xbox and PlayStation
- GET THE KNOW-HOW AND CRAFT FINE LIKKERS – What’s your alcohol of choice? Do you maybe know how to make it? The process is a complex one, but with our know-how, we can shed some light on it, if you’d like; a little bit of moonlight – moonshine! – to guide you through the processes of fermentation, distillation, and bottling.
- RUN YOUR BASE SMART… AND BE DISCREET – Makin’ booze is pure fun, but if you’re makin’ money too – now that’s the way to live. However, for that, you need to be smart, manage your base right, and not piss off the boys in blue… We tried to capture the life of a moonshiner as realistically as possible. You’ll be managing workers who’ll be crafting and maintaining your equipment, you’ll be buying ingredients, unlocking technologies, planning deliveries and finances, making sure you remain as discreet as possible – and deciding whom to trust and with whom to work.
- TAKE YOUR STORY TO METROPOLIS – In our game, you take on the role of a young moonshiner. You will progress through main missions, you’ll be performing side quests, and running into road events during deliveries – the life of a moonshiner is ever-exciting and full of surprises… If you’ll be prospering, you’ll get the chance to create and manage bases in five different regions, each with its own, more and more challenging missions. From your hometown mountains, through the thicket of a forest and mud of a swamp, all the way to civilization to conquer the big city. How the story will end depends purely on you – there’ll be a pesky agent who’ll want to work with you, and there’ll be a corrupt governor that you can join. But you can also ignore them. You’re a free man, after all.

Game Description
We love moonshin’. There ain’t nothin’ better than good booze. In Appalachia, we know it well. We’ve got moonshine in our blood – in the case of some old-timers, maybe even literally. We love to talk about likker, make it, drink it all day long – and we love to share it too! How ’bout that, my gaming friend?
