The best weed video games let you grow, sell and build a cannabis empire from your phone or PC: Hempire, Bud Farm: Grass Roots, Hemp Inc, SimLeaf, Weed Shop The Game and Dope Wars are the ones worth knowing. Cannabis was never going to stay out of gaming, and developers didn't let us down: there's a whole lineup of games to kill time growing and harvesting, even if it's only virtual.

Hempire

When it comes to weed-themed games, this is one of the best on mobile. The goal is to build a cannabis empire. Unlike other games, it's not just about planting and selling: you can also make concentrates, edibles and more! As you level up, you can unlock better seeds, invest in new business areas and  become part of the cannabis retail industry. Plus, you can play online with other players.

Bud Farm: Grass Roots

If you've ever played FarmVille, you'll get this one right away. The difference is that instead of growing corn and raising cows, everything revolves around cannabis. The goal is to grow plants and sell them. It's the perfect way to become a big-time grower and producer, even if it's just virtual. The better you do, the more employees you can hire and the more land you can grow on.

Hemp Inc

Built for wannabe cannabis entrepreneurs, this game lets you become a tycoon without leaving your couch. You start small, planting and selling to dispensaries, and work your way up to a full-blown empire. It's designed for teaming up with other players so everyone can grow together.

SimLeaf

Think Tamagotchi, but it's a plant. This game is a cannabis grow simulator that's great for learning how to grow. From light intensity to pH and nutrient levels, everything your plant needs is one click away. With this simulator you can learn to grow weed by screwing up without losing a real harvest, since it's all virtual.

Weed Shop The Game

If you're into medical marijuana and GTA-style games, this one's for you. Your mission is to grow medical cannabis and sell it for therapeutic use. You make money and progress through the game while treating patients with different needs.

Dope Wars (Weed Edition)

Dope Wars started out as a PC game, and this is its weed-only mobile version. The goal is to hunt down the best weed deals so you can flip them for a profit. Once you're a successful dealer, you'll have to dodge the cops and rival gangs.
