AS OF TODAY, A PROHIBITION OF ALCOHOLIC DRINKS IS IN FORCE IN THE USA
Z današnjim dnem je stopila v veljavo prohibicija alkohola, ki je trajala vse do 5. decembra 1933. V času prepovedi je veliko ljudi poskušalo obogateti s tihotapljenjem alkohola v ZDA.
[[Will you be able to smuggle->Will you be able to smuggle]] a barrel of Whiskey into America?The problem of alcohol consumption in America has been known almost since colonization by Europeans. Despite several attempts, they failed to solve the problem. In the early 19th century, major projects were launched to curb alcoholism. The struggle was growing, most of the movements were represented by women who felt alcoholism due to violence against them. Soon, several political parties joined the movement. Shortly after the war, there was a vote in Congress, where they passed the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, which banned alcohol.
There were several protests during the ban, but they failed. Simultaneously with Prohibition, they began smuggling alcohol, which became a lucrative industry. Crime soon became a major problem and opposition began to emerge, arguing that the main arguments against the ban were that it caused crime and lower capital.
Due to great pressure, the ban ended when Congress passed the 21st Amendment.
Prohibition has greatly reduced alcohol consumption, alcoholism-related diseases, and infant mortality.
Smugglers were heavily persecuted by the authorities at the time, but due to the high level of addiction, the population preferred to take risks as wages were high. The alcohol was then mostly drunk at secret bars.
[[continue->nadaljuj]]You are in Mexico and in front of you is the most important decision along the way.
You have to decide how you are going to get to the US.
The first option is [[by land->po kopnem]]
Another option is [[by sea->po morju]]Smugglers used several ways to get across the border successfully. They could try it by land or by water.
On the way by boat, you were less likely to be caught by the police, but at the same time the sea is very unpredictable and therefore dangerous.
The overland route was more popular, but with a higher risk of arrest. The safest way to cross the land was to use underground tunnels made by the smugglers themselves, some of which have survived to this day.
[[Begin the game->Začni igro]]You have decided to try to take a more risky path.
You are in an inn in Tijuana, a large city on the border between Mexico and California. You took the alcohol you have to take across the border to San Diego
You hear people at the table talking about the fact that they, too, will be trying to smuggle alcohol across the border.
You can ask them if you can go [[with them->z njimi]] or [[go alone->sam]]You took the alcohol and came to port with it. You have to deliver it to San Diego. You've come to the ship you usually use for smuggling, called Underwriter.
[[board->Vkrcaj se]]
For the last time, you can change your mind about going [[overland->po kopnem]].Better choice ... or not. The more heads you know the more likely you are to be caught by the police
So together you have gone to a house, lent to you by a friend, 5 miles away from the border. Soon, the night will fall, so you need to decide when you will cross the border.
You can cross it [[today->danes]]
You can cross it [[tomorrow->jutri]]You left the inn and headed towards your old smuggling friend. Your friend lives in a cottage located in a village on the border.
You get to the hut when you hear strange sounds in it.
You have to decide whether to enter
[[Enter->Vstopiš]]
[[Escape->Pobegneš]]
or [[hide and observe->se skriješ in gledaš iz zasede]]You sailed away.
There are 3 other people on board, smuggling alcohol and a captain. They are all members of the mob. You just ate dinner and found them playing cards. They ask you if you will join them.
[[Play cards->Boš kartal]] or [[don't->ne]]They make room next to it and you throw a game of poker which quickly addicts you. Since there also drinks, of course, you soon run out of money.
You can decide [[to give your saving->da boš dal še zadnje prihranke]] or you just [[finish playing->boš nehal kartat]].Bad decision. They decided to throw you in the sea because you don’t listen to them, and they sold your alcohol.
YOU HAVE [[DROWNED->Začni igro]]
You won and got back everything you lost in the evening. The captain angrily leaves the table and you happily go to bed.
[[Wake up->Zbudiš se]]Bad decision. They decided to throw you into the sea because you are not sociable enough
YOU HAVE [[DROWNED->nadaljuj]]

https://static.wixstatic.com/media/58341c_1f9e730c33064af48dc93a1ee74328f8~mv2.jpgYou wake up to strange sounds. You hear many voices that do not belong to your comrades. Soon a man comes to your cabin who you don't know, but you recognize his clothes.
You soon realize that he is a member of the Coast Guard.
You notice you have a knife on the shelf next to the bed.
[[Try to kill him->Poskusi ga ubiti]]
[[Surrender->Predaj se]]There’s complete darkness outside and you’ve left the house. You plan to try to get across the border together, but if you get caught by the police, run away and don't betray your partners.
[[keep going->nadaljuj pot]]
You went to sleep, but you couldn't fall asleep right away. You got thirsty so you went if there was any water. When you got to the kitchen door you heard your comrades talking about how they were going to arrest you.
You find out that they are undercover cops trying to catch you.
So you decide to run away [[immediately->pobegnil]].You have begun.
You almost reached the border, when one of the gang pulled out a gun.
You fell into an ambush. It turned out that the gang was a police group undercover.
[[Try to escape->Poskusi pobegniti]]
[[Let them arrest you->Pusti se aretirati]]

You start running into the dark, but the police are right behind you. You know you're running towards the border and you hope they don't catch you. But because you carry whiskey in your backpack, you run a lot harder than they do.
[[Abandon the barrel->Pusti sodček]] and escape more easily
[[Keep the barrel->Obdrži sodček]]
YOU HAVE BEEN ARRESTED.
Your mission [[failed->nadaljuj]].You have left the barrel and escaped successfully.
[[Bravo]]You realize that you have decided that the task is more important than running away.
Luckily you fell into the hole and the cops walked by without noticing you.
You ran away from them
[[However->Ampak]]HOWEVER
YOUR TASK WAS TO SMUGGLE ALCOHOL OVER THE BORDER, WHICH YOU DIDN'T DO!
Your mission [[failed->nadaljuj]]You killed him, but soon more Coast Guard men came and shot you.
Your mission [[failed->nadaljuj]].
<audio src="https://static.wixstatic.com/mp3/58341c_83c70fe889dc42969721b3786fdf39bd.mp3" autoplay>The mission is over for you.
YOU HAVE BEEN [[ARRESTED->nadaljuj]]You have a twisted ankle.
But luckily you escaped.
Because you have a sprained ankle you can’t keep going until the sprain is healed.
That's why [[you return home->vrneš domov]].Your ankle healed after a week and you did
you can set off [[again->podaš na pot]].You have to decide first if you are going to take a risk and trust people not to trap you again.
Don't trust [[anybody->Nikomur]].
[[Trust them->Še vedno]].Bad decision. It will be very difficult for you to cross the border. But you can succeed.
Because you twisted your ankle, you're very late. So get going right away [[right away->odpraviš]].You decide to continue to take risks and seek help from others. You remember your good friend who helped you last time.
You come to his hut when you hear strange noises in it.
You have to decide whether to enter
[[Enter->Vstopiš]]
[[Escape->Pobegneš]]
or [[hide and watch from an ambush->se skriješ in gledaš iz zasede]]You slowly open the door and a big dog jumps on you and starts licking you all happy.
Soon after the dog comes your friend who tells you that he got the dog.
It relieved to you, that it was just a dog.
[[Tell him about your story->Povej mu o tej svoji prigodi]]
[[Don't tell him->Zamolči mu]]You haven’t figured out what was in the house and without a friend you can’t cross the border.
[[Return->vrni]].You came back to the house where the same sounds can still be heard.
You have to decide if you [[enter->Vstopiš]] or [[hide and observe->se skriješ in gledaš iz zasede]] You don't see anything going on, but the sound won't stop.
You decide to [[enter->Vstopiš]]You laughed the whole night [[and->in]]...You made a good decision. Sometimes it’s good to be quiet.
As night approaches, you decide to spend the night with him.
In the evening, you plan your trip together.
You are deciding between two ways
[[Through the underground tunnel->Prek podzemnega jaška]]
[[Through the nearby woods->Po gozdu]]Unknowingly, started drinking alcohol from your barrel. Soon you were both very drunk and when you woke up in the morning it was empty. You have drank the whole thing.
Your mission has [[failed->Will you be able to smuggle]].You have successfully escaped so that you can set out [[again->podaš na pot]].Most people would choose the route because it is much safer. You decide to go on a trip tomorrow morning. Because you are very tired you fall asleep right away.
You wake up in the morning before dawn and [[leave->oddideš]].Bad decision. But you can come here too if you’re lucky. Luckily for you, a friend comments that this is a bad idea and you can change your mind
Decide
Go through the [[forest->greš še vedno skozi gozd]].
or the [[underground tunnel->Prek podzemnega jaška]]A friend gave you the coordinates of where the entrance to the shaft is located. Because there was no GPS at that time, only maps, but you can't read them, you need to [[return->vrniti]].You go back and a friend shows you where you need to go.
[[go towards the tunnel->pojdi proti predoru]]You soon found the entrance to the shaft and [[entered it->vstopil v njega]].You entered the tunnel. You're lucky a friend helped you. When you've been walking for [[an hour->se]].
<audio src="https://static.wixstatic.com/mp3/58341c_9eaa22c38d63440fbe322c8e459d771e.mp3" autoplay>You say goodbye to a friend and set off. You know it would be better to go at night but you don’t have time anymore and you have to hit the road right away. You soon came to [[forest->gozda]]All of a sudden the ground starts to shake. EARTHQUAKE! We are aware that the tunnel will collapse and overwhelm you. In these last seconds of life, you realize that YOUR MISSION HAS [[FAILED->nadaljuj]]!
<audio src="https://static.wixstatic.com/mp3/58341c_7a32f880e2964282a5a9f3e683051343.mp3" autoplay>You have been walking for 2 hours, which means you have successfully came to the border.
Well done.
Now you just need to deliver the barrel in [[San Diego]].Your destination, where you were supposed to deliver alcohol, was a bar that collapsed soon after Prohibition. Since alcohol accounted for the majority of sales to most bars, many closed their doors. At the same time, despite their failure, they still served illegal alcohol and organized social gatherings behind their doors.
Smugglers have been an important part of the supply chain.
THE ENDYou have left home and you have to decide where you are going. It would be safest to go through the underground shafts, but you don't know where it is and you have decided not to trust anyone. You can choose a safer route [[through the woods->skozi gozd]] or try to [[swim->plavati]], which is very risky.You soon come to the forest and enter it. You have been walking for some time now [[when->ko]]...You soon reached the sea and stepped into it. You immediately became sorry that you made that decision because the water is icy. You have to decide quickly.
Will you run back and go [[through the woods->skozi gozd]],
Or will you [[continue swimming->nadaljeval]]?The ground begins to shake. You immediately realize it's an earthquake. And in a panic, you start running. The quake lasts for almost 20 seconds when the tree in front of you falls. Because you didn't notice him, you ran right under him and the tree killed you
YOUR TASK [[FAILED->nadaljuj]]The water is icy cold and you have been swimming for half an hour. You decide that you are already across the border and that you can go back to the coast. When you swim to the shore you find that you have come to [[San Diego]].Your name is William McCoy.
You're one of the better alcohol smugglers.
You will be able to cross the border this time as well.
