Maple Red

Maple Red is a cozy workshop game about the craft of maple syrup.

Run the whole boil yourself: control the sap intake valve, push the sap through a reverse osmosis membrane, then ride the evaporator pan as the boiling point climbs with rising sugar. Stay inside the safe temperature window or your syrup caramelizes dark. Time the filter press, bottle the batch, and get graded by brix and color.

Take rotating orders for Grade A Golden, Amber, Dark or Processing syrup and earn syrup coins for every batch. Spend them in the sugar shack shop on real equipment: a faster evaporator, automatic temperature control, an inline brix meter, a precision filter press, a vacuum concentrator, or a long-term food factory contract.

Every upgrade truly changes how the workshop plays. Easy to learn, hard to keep golden.
