In an old tavern, in the middle of a gator infested swamp lives a shady old moonshiner named Pappy. For as long as anyone cares to remember he has been providing the best darn moonshine this side of the Mississippi! However, old Pappy is ready to retire and is holding something of a competition to see who's got the gumption to take over his Moonshine Empire! Distill, move, and deliver moonshine to Pappy's tavern and earn money by selling it to his customers. Use that money to bribe him for gear at his auction. Watch out for the police and gators as they creep around his tavern. Earn points exploring the swamp, delivering shine, or by completing challenges. Choose your strategy quickly as Pappy's challenge is over in one night, and whoever scores the most points claims Pappy's Moonshine Empire! Unique Features: 1)Moonshine themed strategy game with unique swamp vehicles! 2)Tons of player interaction with 2, 3, or 4 players! 3)Each game is unique with auction, customers, and swamp tiles! 4)Game Leader is a mystery, winner can be a surprise! -description from the publisher
