Build a fruit juice business on a tropical island while living under CIA surveillance. Farm exotic fruits, craft unique drinks, push the limits of your tracking bracelet, and grow a small survival hustle into a mysterious underground empire in this 1980s crafting and business simulation.
Mulerun – Retro Bootlegger Simulator
SteamMULERUN is a first-person crafting, farming, and business simulation game set on a mysterious tropical island in the 1980s.
After escaping a dangerous drug network, the CIA relocates you to a remote island under strict surveillance. A tracking bracelet on your ankle prevents you from traveling too far from the house they gave you.
You’re safe… but you’re also stuck.
With only a run-down shack, a few fruit trees, and some primitive tools, you must find a way to survive, produce, trade, and slowly build a business.
What begins with simple fruit juice production may grow into something far more ambitious.
If you’re clever enough.
Your journey begins with almost nothing.
Using basic tools and the fruit growing around your house, you’ll start producing fresh juice and simple products to sell locally.
Learn to:
It’s humble work — but every empire starts somewhere.
The nearby island shop allows you to buy new seeds, saplings, and farming equipment.
Plant new fruit varieties, expand your orchard, and increase your production capacity.
Grow your operation with:
More fruit means more opportunities.
The tracking bracelet limits how far you can travel from your house.
But ambitious people rarely stay within their limits.
Find creative ways to stretch your allowed range, explore more of the island, and unlock new possibilities.
The further you go, the bigger the opportunities — and the risks.
As your operation grows, you’ll begin experimenting with new fermentation and production methods.
Different fruits, techniques, and equipment may lead to unexpected results.
Some drinks are stronger than others.
Much stronger.
And the island might develop a taste for them.
Your small survival operation can eventually evolve into a real island business.
Open your own shop, sell your creations, and become known across the island.
Serve locals, travelers, and mysterious buyers looking for something special.
The harbor and airstrip connect the island to the outside world.
Order rare seeds and exotic plants to create unique drinks that can’t be found anywhere else.
With the right ingredients and clever experimentation, your recipes may become legendary.
