Schedule 2
Schedule 2 is a crime simulation game set in the fictional city of Hyland Point, where players take on the role of an independent drug dealer starting from zero. With no money, no contacts, and no product, the game begins at the very bottom. The objective is to grow a criminal operation by producing and distributing various substances, expanding territory, and managing the constant risk of law enforcement and rival gangs. The gameplay mixes open-world exploration, resource management, and combat mechanics.
Expansion Through Production and Trade
The core of Schedule 2 revolves around establishing a steady production line. Each drug has a different process and set of ingredients, with options to refine, mix, or alter formulas to create custom variants. As the operation grows, players can unlock more advanced recipes that offer higher profit margins or specific effects. Distribution begins by hand-delivering to customers but evolves into a complex system involving hired dealers, safehouses, and mobile operations.
Key gameplay systems include:
- Drug production with ingredient sourcing and recipe discovery
- Territory-based expansion using storefronts and rental properties
- Hiring employees to manage production and sales
- Player transportation options including walking, skating, and driving
- Dynamic reputation system influenced by customer satisfaction and heat level
Risk Management and Conflict
Hyland Point is not a safe place to do business. As operations grow, so does attention from police and organized crime. The player must avoid surveillance, plan escape routes, and decide when to confront or evade. Conflict can arise through random street encounters or planned raids, requiring players to use fists, melee weapons, or firearms. Defensive strategies, decoys, and hiding spots also play a role in staying in business.
Progression, Upgrades, and Strategy
Schedule 2 offers a progression path based on both money earned and influence gained. Players invest in properties that act as labs, warehouses, or headquarters. Each can be upgraded with new equipment and security features. Managing logistics becomes crucial, especially when balancing supply chains, employee behavior, and competition from cartels. Optional cooperative multiplayer mode allows friends to build a joint empire, dividing tasks and coordinating moves to maximize profit while minimizing exposure.
The world of Schedule 2 is driven by tension, reward, and calculated risk. The game does not glamorize the subject matter but presents a structured simulation of survival in an underground economy. Players must think strategically, act quickly, and adapt to an evolving city where every choice has consequences.
