Game description:

Parcel Simulator is a logistics-based management game that places players in charge of a growing package inspection and distribution center. The core objective is to process incoming parcels by inspecting, categorizing, and routing them correctly, all while managing the flow of goods through a warehouse. Each parcel arrives with a unique combination of labels, weights, destinations, and contents. As the operator, your task is to ensure each one meets the current requirements, which change over time. Accuracy and speed are key to keeping operations efficient and generating revenue.

Inspection, Sorting, And Decision Making

The gameplay begins with manual inspection. Players must read parcel labels, confirm details like cargo type and destination, and either approve or deny the shipment. Sometimes a barcode needs to be entered manually or scanned; other times, packages must be opened to check for restricted items. The process becomes more complex as new rules are introduced, requiring the player to juggle multiple inspection steps. Mistakes result in lost income or penalties, making attention to detail an essential skill from the beginning.

Automation And System Design

As operations grow, players can begin automating parts of their warehouse to handle larger volumes. Machines can be installed to scan labels automatically, detect contraband, and direct parcels to the correct conveyors. Storage areas and extraction tools help organize approved and denied shipments into designated areas. Efficient planning of these systems becomes critical to keeping the warehouse running smoothly.

Key automation features include:

  •         Conveyor belts that direct packages across sorting lines
  •         Machines that scan, weigh, and inspect labels
  •         Storage racks organized by cargo type and approval status
  •         Parcel loaders and unloaders for routing shipments
  •         Detection systems for filtering based on specific rules

Expansion And Customization

Over time, players earn money to expand their warehouse, unlocking more delivery bays, improving capacity, and handling more shipments per cycle. Upgrades allow for faster processing and higher value per parcel. New licenses introduce additional shipment types or regions, creating more complex criteria for approval. Players can also customize their warehouse layout, inspection table, and equipment placement to optimize both space and workflow efficiency.
