Is it just a case of similarity, or did Schedule 1 draw too much inspiration? Movie Games has started an investigation, claiming to have found notable resemblances between the game and its Drug Dealer Simulator series.

    I played Drug Wars on my TI-89 almost 25 years ago which sounds like the same game but with better graphics.

      Omg TI-83 for me! Then school admins got all pissed about it and banned it. So the exact game was changed to be Candy Wars. Exact same mechanics except drug names were changed to candy.

        TI-82 here. Thank fuck that I got out of HS in '96. The administration hadn’t caught on that we had Drug Wars, and a really shitty MechWarrior game floating around the school.

          Did you play Penguin? That was the coolest game.

            No, but Redneck Rampage was also a popular game for the Ti-82
