The Law Banned the Booze. They Didn’t Ban the Thirst.

It’s 1920. The government just turned every honest bartender into a criminal overnight. In Silent Spirits, you’re not just running a bar; you’re keeping a dying culture alive in the shadows. From the first drop of bathtub gin in 1919 to the final days of Prohibition in 1933, you’ll have to outsmart the law and satisfy the city’s dangerous appetite for illicit spirits.

Behind Closed Doors

Your storage is your sanctuary and your crime scene. Manage a hidden speakeasy where the elite and the desperate rub elbows. Keep the glasses full, and the customers happy—but remember: one loud patron or one loose lip is all it takes to bring the coppers to your door.

Distill, Brew, and Survive

Gather raw materials and master the art of the underground still. Whether it's rotgut moonshine or high-end whiskey, every bottle you produce is a gamble. As the years pass, unlock authentic recipes that demand better equipment and higher stakes. Quality keeps the customers coming back; quantity keeps the mafia off your back.

The Rhythm of the Underground

Life under the ban is a relentless cycle. Use the Daylight to cook your batches and prep the bar. When Evening falls, open the secret door and serve the thirsty masses. But the real work starts at Midnight: navigate the streets and dodge police patrols to make your deliveries. One wrong turn during a drop-off, and you’ll lose more than just your cargo.

Debt to the Syndicate

The Mafia provides the protection you need, but their "friendship" isn't free. Meet their annual quotas to stay in their good graces and earn rare recipes. Fail them, and you’ll find out that the police are the least of your worries.
