The verdict
A stylish 80s narco logistics tycoon with great art and music, but heavy micromanagement, shallow AI rivals and an abandoned state. Skip it if you want polish, depth or updates.
Great for
Fans of logistics and supply-chain games who love the 80s narco theme and can tolerate rough edges
Main risk
Tedious micromanagement of lieutenants, money and trucks, with no further updates to fix it
