The goal of the game is simple: to become the world\u2019s largest black market marijuana mogul, while maintaining a safe distance from anyone with the authority to put you in jail. Starting with a single plant, players care for their precious product in hopes of turning their cannabis investment it into a handful of cash.<\/p>\n<p>In the game, players sell weed to an assortment of characters, including strippers, who will offer you lap dances and pick your cash coffers bone dry. You also have to pay the police to keep the heat off as well outsmart pesky gangsters trying to reign in on your action.<\/p>\n<p>Weed Firm is a fun and highly addictive method of killing time, anyone interested in playing should probably download it right away because we can\u2019t imagine how this game got past the Apple police into the iTunes store.<\/p>\n<p>However, there is speculation that Apple will not inflict its wrath on developer Manitoba Games by getting rid of Weed Firm, simply because the company was smart enough to incorporate a disclaimer at the beginning of the game, which states, \u201cThe creators of this game do not encourage the cultivation or use of cannabis. The plot of this game is solely a work of fiction and should be viewed only as such.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Source:\u00a0 High Times\u00a0 May 2014<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just another example of how those who want to legalise drugs \u2013 especially marijuana (cannabis) spread their message \u2013 this is clearly aimed at teenagers, it is a fun game to play on their smartphones \u2013 and the underlying message is \u2018this game is fun \u2013 marijuana is fun\u2019\u2026\u2026\u2026 Game for Smartphones For those who [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90,14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9506","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-global-drug-legalisation-efforts","category-social-affairs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9506"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9506\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drugprevent.org.uk\/ppp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
