Logistical 2: France

LOGistICAL 2: France is an open-world strategy and puzzle game about transporting cargo to complete towns across France. You plan deliveries across a complex road network, repair broken roads and solve logistics puzzles shaped by obstacles such as quarantine zones. The module includes over 3,500 towns and 50 businesses, including cities such as Paris, Marseille, Lyon and Toulouse.

Plan deliveries

Each town is its own puzzle, and the whole map forms a larger one. Towns consume the cargoes needed to complete them, so you must decide what to deliver and in what order. Some cargoes are readily available; others must be produced by industries. You can use existing industries and build your own, upgrading them for exponentially greater throughput. Cargo stores can also help, while large trucks carry more but cannot travel everywhere. Most truck sizes fit on all roads, even when carrying cargo, and truck boosts include a super-speed multiplier. The last truck to deliver receives the bonus.

You can complete towns in your own order and earn bonuses for finishing regions and contracts. Contracts offer a starting point if you are unsure where to begin. Businesses do not consume resources and have a fixed score that does not depend on truck size or quantity. You can complete towns, roads, industries, contracts and regions for in-game and Steam achievements.

Roads and industries

The module takes a town-focused approach to play while retaining LOGistICAL 2's high-resolution road systems. Roads to towns are already at the highest quality and do not need upgrading, but many are broken and need deliveries to repair them. The map includes quarantine zones, and some regions do not allow industries to be built, creating additional delivery and planning puzzles. Trucks cannot take large vehicles across water on ferries.

France includes 13 new industries and 13 new resources. The map contains over 150 industries drawn from more than 180 industry types; you can find some industries across the map, upgrade them and build your own. Towns, roads and the map are to scale, and industry placements reflect current or historical locations. Maps of 35 km or more are pre-rendered as bitmaps to speed up zoomed-out play.
