LOGistICAL: South Africa

A tiny module with alot of character, challenges, and interesting locales. A great module to try early in your logistical 'career.' 9.5/10

Logistical South Africa is a great addition to the Logistical series. Aside from ZA this module also inclused Lesotho and Swaziland. There are some great industry and quarantine puzzles early on and completing this module forces you to step away from the standard fixing method of Roads --> Industries --> Towns. And as always, having bonus countries is always great!

[b]This is a copy of my review for the [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/573060/LOGistICAL/]original game[/url]. Most of my time is going into that one. [i]For now[/i].[/b] There are few things new buyers should be aware of: [olist][*]This game is not in any shape or form similar to Transport Tycoon. You won't be optimizing routes, building long-lasting production chains, planning complex routes for dozens upon dozens vehicles, etc, etc. Instead you will be managing up to 15 not-so-smart trucks making sure they can fulfill demands of each and every town you find. Which can get a bit hectic. [*]This game is for patient people. You probably won't experience the real difficulty it can throw at you for a while (and by that I mean many hours of preparation and unlocking every tool the game can offer you) [*]Many reviews mention "having to overcome UI", well, it got much better. And it keeps improving. In all honesty, being late to the party, I haven't had much trouble with figuring it out. [*]This is not an achievement spam game. Each and any of the achievements require work. Sure, some are extremely easy, but some others are very hard.[/olist] As for the game itself, it's the most addicting purchase I made in years. After playing for few hours I just bought everything that was available at the moment, because I knew I'll play it eventually. It might not be for everyone, probably far from it, but it's a great game if you can see its charm.

ZA Logistical

Its an ok map with a quarantine line in the middle that blocks mostly foods. Beginning can be confusing with steel and how to get it, but you will get there. Not much worrying about money. You have 8t, 20t, 40t trucks and the 20t truck can drive almost everywhere. Theres quite a lot of hard cities you gotta plan out and make your own factory. I did it in 60 hours, you can subtract some because of AFK time. Overall experience id say an 8/10.

LOGistICAL: South Africa — стратегическая головоломка с открытым миром, где игрок занимается перевозкой грузов по городам Южной Африки, Лесото и Свазиленда. В игре более 300 населённых пунктов (включая Йоханнесбург, Кейптаун и Порт‑Элизабет), нужно развивать инфраструктуру, улучшать дороги и управлять ресурсами. Плюсы: открытый мир с более чем 300 городами; реалистичное расположение городов и производств (в т. ч. исторически достоверное); разнообразие задач: доставка грузов, развитие дорог, строительство и модернизация производств; система бонусов за завершение регионов и контрактов; возможность улучшать грузовики и оптимизировать маршруты; поддержка русского языка; 543 достижения Steam; автономная игра — не требует оригинальной LOGistICAL; низкие системные требования. Минусы: только одиночный режим — нет мультиплеера; поначалу может быть сложно разобраться в механиках; устаревшая графика (игра 2018 года); монотонность при долгом прохождении; некоторые задачи требуют сложного планирования и могут отпугнуть новичков; возможны баги с логистикой или отображением прогресса; ограниченная визуальная обратная связь при выполнении задач. Итог LOGistICAL: South Africa подойдёт любителям стратегических головоломок, логистики и симуляторов управления. Игра привлекает масштабом, реалистичной картой и глубиной планирования, но из‑за отсутствия мультиплеера, устаревшей графики и высокой сложности отдельных задач может не заинтересовать тех, кто ищет динамичный геймплей или простую аркаду. Хороший выбор для поклонников неторопливых стратегий и задач на оптимизацию.

Ok for chill gaming.

A good smaller module with around 300 towns - has a few puzzles that have you tip-toeing around restrictions for most of the early game. This does a nice job as an introduction to the shenanigans spicier modules will throw at you but on a significantly smaller scale.
