Dragons vs drugs.

Since the dawn of time a battle has been raging between two equally powerful but opposing concepts. I am, of course, talking about dragons and drugs. And yes, I know all about how Puff the Magic Dragon allegedly tried to bring the two factions together, but it's all lies. There can be no lasting peace. Anyway! For now, at least, dragons are on top. Specifically the top of Steam's top selling games list, where RuneScape: Dragonwilds has dethroned Schedule 1.

Of course, Schedule 1 has enjoyed plenty of time at the top already. The early access drug dealer sim seems to have really gripped folk—including myself. It has exactly what a good sim needs: a fun premise, an engaging escalation in complexity and risk, and drugs.
