ILLICIT

A lab, a debt and a basement

Your uncle Julián Ferrer is dead. He left you his chemistry lab in the Puerto Salitre industrial estate, his filing cabinet of recipe sheets, his regular clients and a debt of €80,000. Pay it off before the bank takes the machines, and find out what really happened to him.

Every order made by hand

Pour, weigh, heat, stir, filter, centrifuge, distill and crystallize, step by step, with real machines you operate with the mouse. Every dose is judged: order, amount, temperature and timing. Purity decides what you get paid, and every mistake has visible consequences: foam, fire, toxic gas, broken glass.

• 17 compounds to deliver, from soap and disinfectant to products you should not be making
  
• Hot plate, vacuum filtration, scales, centrifuge, distiller, crystallizer, drying oven, programmable reactor and packing line
  
• A microscope to find and treat contaminants: bacteria, yeast, spores and impurities
  
• Old equipment that wears out and warns you before it breaks

Legal by day, something else at night

Clients call with orders. Ask them questions, negotiate, deliver on time, or quietly cut the purity and hope they don't notice. Some of them are traps. The riskier the product, the more it pays and the more police heat it draws. Pack it with an honest label, a fake one or none at all, and hide what you must before the inspection knocks.

Grow the lab

Buy upgrades that you can see in the lab: fume hood, sprinklers, acoustic panels, fire doors, a rotary evaporator, a better microscope and an automatic packing belt. Unlock the distillation room, the reactor room, the clean room, the warehouse and the hidden basement, where you produce your own raw materials.

Better with friends

Play alone or in co-op with up to 4 players: split the work, pass the recipe sheet around, revive a stunned partner and decide together who opens the door when the inspection arrives.
