Yerba Mate Tycoon

Yerba Mate Tycoon is a casual indie management game where you build and run a yerba mate production business in a vivid South American setting. Create, customize and market yerba mate blends and grow your company from a small startup into a recognised player in the market.

Create your yerba mate

• Over 156 additives to choose from, each with unique stats and qualities — including familiar flavors and quirky options like apple, orange, pomelo, honey, and even uranium.
• Control every aspect of the product: set price, design a logo, choose package sizes, target group, drying method, distribution, and more to craft a standout blend.
• Either forge something completely original or tune blends to appeal to the crowd and drive your brand into the market.

Manage your company

• Care for taxes, build fan support, and manage your workforce — hire, train, or fire workers as you scale.
• Track your company rank and loan rank, acquire other companies, unlock upgrades, and push ahead of the competition.
• Boost yerba mate popularity and face competition from coffee in a dynamic market that responds to your decisions.
• Encounter events and make strategic choices that shape growth, risk, and reward.

Dynamic world & features

• A living system with evolving tax rates, loan availability, yerba popularity, and worker salaries and behavior.
• Choose one of 19 countries to set your company and CEO stats; each country has different taxes, popularity rates, salaries, and timelines.
• Unlock upgrades, learn the quirks of the yerba mate economy, and discover Easter eggs and references along the way.
• New updates bring fresh content and challenges as a solo developer crafts a casual, indie experience.

Gameplay notes

• No office building to customize and no online mode — the game focuses on single-player business management and simulation.
• Polish and English are official translations; community translations expand the languages available to players.
• Satirical humor, nods to yerba mate culture, and a playful, referential vibe run throughout the experience.

Yerba Mate Tycoon emphasizes a stream of decisions, a balance between quality and cost, and the thrill of growing a regional drink into a global favorite.
