“Noy having been a drug dealer, I was a cop for 25 years. I can tell you from the police side, this game is very true to life (not the police characters). I assume it is very close to the life of a dealer though. Really…”
“I wish there was a mixed rating because as much as I liked this game, I wouldn't really recommend it. This game is very enjoyable but it lacked a lot of things, especially after endgame and it had a lot of bugs, some of…”

“Its just too laggy man. If I look at a pile of glass shards in a room my frames go down to like 30 fps 7/10 game can get repetitive but fun 2/10 performance horribly optimized”
“The most UNOPTMIZIED game of all time i am truly shocked from this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥...genuinely shocked,and i know my specs aren't the best but theres no way i dont get 60 fps on all low 1080p”
“probably a super fun game, but it runs horribly on my laptop. it is most definitely not meant for a non-gaming laptop/pc. still recommending it because i know it's just my laptop... *cries in poor*. wish i could've…”

“I like the realism behind the game and the fact that I can feel like a druglord while being behind my PC while my life is failing”
— a player, Steam review · 13 hrs played“I went into DDS1 expecting a goofy little DD game to kill an hour or two. What I actually got was a full-blown life of crime simulator that somehow had me checking on my digital plants like they were my real children. The beauty of DDS1 is how hands-on everything feels.
