Red Flag Police alert system

Greetings Moonshiners! Let's start the countdown! Only one week left until the premiere of Moonshine Inc.! Latterly, we've shared some shiny copies with the press, media, influencers, and, in general, with several nice content creators. Therefore expect a fair few new updates and prolly some videos of Moonshine Inc around the web.


And as the big launch is quickly approaching, check out the new #MoonshineMemoires!

A spider in the mash. A leaking pot still. A mistake in proofing and suddenly all your clients go blind. There are many obstacles, troubles, and challenges that moonshiners face. But none of them is worse than… being caught by the police.

And the same goes for Moonshine INC. and our original Red Flag Police alert system.
When delivering moonshine to your clients, most often you have to get it to one of your stashes. You can choose where a given batch goes, you can divide the batches between different stashes. There are always a couple of those on the map for you to choose from.

However, choosing the right stash is not so easy. Each one has its own statistics which depend on how often you use it. First of all, the more you use a given stash, the more popular it becomes. BUT, the popularity of the given stash increases the probability of a police raid. And that’s the exact opposite of what you want. A raid destroys the batch in your stash and lowers its popularity back to zero.
So, you have to be very careful when you choose where to make your delivery. While dividing a delivery among different destinations might seem like a clever idea, you might want to give a certain stash a pass if it’s become too popular among the people (and thus the police).

The other thing to worry about is the general Police Alert. This particular statistic is global and is also affected by your dealings and how discreet you are. The bigger the level of the Alert, the bigger the chance of your drivers running into events during the deliveries. There are different types of events, but they often may prove a challenge for you and require making decisions right there on the spot. Dispose of a batch and escape safely? Or maybe risk a police chase but make the delivery? Luckily, some of your employees - whom you can set as drivers for the given delivery - might have Traits that help with that, like better driving and so on. So that’s good. But it’s even better when the police don’t notice you at all. Especially since once, the Police Alert becomes too high… It’s game over, man. Game over.

Fortunately, there are some ways of lowering the Police Alert level. Those too include the road events during the deliveries, so it’s not all that bad. And the other thing? Side-missions. There’s more than just stashes on the map - there are also prominent members of the local community who might want something a little… special. Helping them, being discreet, as well as some luck, are the main ways of keeping yourself safe from that dreaded Johnny Law. And of becoming a proper, world-class moonshiner.


Don't let yourself get caught! Moonshine Inc. premieres on December 1st!
