Interpolating between bosons and fermions, anyons are particles that pick up a complex phase 0<θ<π upon particle exchange. In one dimensional optical lattices, where anyons can be mapped onto bosons with a density dependent complex hopping element, the possible realization and the physics of anyons has caught a lot of interest recently. Still, the experimental implementation has not yet been achieved. We propose a simple scheme to realize 1D anyons in optical lattices that relies only on lattice shaking and tilting. Within our proposal, also the on-site interaction of the anyons can be tuned effectively. We analyze the ground state of a chain of finite length, as it can be realized in a quantum gas microscope. With increasing θ the atoms tend to localize and to form a crystal-like structure. This is a signature of the smooth fermionization and can be observed in the density, in two-particle correlations, and in the 2nd Renyi entropy of subsystems.
