I am Steve Novicki, and I will be narrating this guide on the wonderful computer/Texas Instruments graphing calculators game Drug Wars! Drug Wars is a game where you buy and sell a variety of drugs to make a lot of money and, if you're lucky, live. This FAQ tells how to be successful at accomplishing this. 2 - How to Make Money The point of the game Drug Wars is to buy and sell a variety drugs in order to make a lot of money and to live. The main rule to follow when doing this is: buy drugs at an extremely low price. Then try and sell at an extremely high price. What I like to do is to start off the game by getting some spending money. Do this by buying a lot of weed when the prices have "bottomed out". Then sell it at an average but high price elsewhere. You get a ton of money doing this. You can repeat this process over and over until you get a lot of money, like forty or fifty thousand. Now jet around until you find a place where "Pigs are selling cheap heroin from last week's raid". Buy as much heroin here as you possibly can. Then go somewhere where "addicts are buying heroin at outrageous prices" and sell the whole load. This will make you a TON of cash. An even easier way to do this is the same thing with cocaine. Buy cocaine at an average price; try to get it really low. Then jet around until "cops have made a huge coke bust and prices are outrageous". Sell the whole load here and you will almost guaranteed have more than a million dollars. Then you can just keep repeating that until you are satisfied. The only problem with doing this is that sometimes the loan shark's goons come and bust you up for your late payments. They also take all of your drugs you are currently carrying. This can be devastating to your account if you're carrying an expensive drug like cocaine because you lose a ton of money. To avoid this, just be sure to repay the loan shark often. Lastly, if you're a hex maniac like myself, edit the program files to give you a ton of money. 3 - How to Win The point of Drug Wars is to make as much money as possible. I have not won the game yet, but it is the kind of game where you set the standards for winning. For example, you might say that you win when you possess more than five million dollars. Or maybe when you have sold two hundred units of every kind of drug there is. Just follow the guidelines I above have set for making money and you can do almost anything in this game that you want to do. 4 - Legal Information Juts so people aware of this fact, this mini-FAQ for the PC and TI-85 version of Drug Wars is Copyright © March 26, 2000 by Steve Novicki himself.
