Logistics Inc. is an Idle Game released in 2019 by Kodiqi. It has you buy vehicles which make money by making deliveries. At the same time, you must manage members of staff who can take part in using those vehicles, be mechanics for vehicles so they work faster, or do further research.
This game provides examples of:
- Cool Train: Your train can have over a hundred high-security cars, plus it's likely that it'll be your main source of income.
- Department of Redundancy Department: The last line of the game's description is "Go further! Go farther! Go more far!"
- Export Save: This game has an 8KB+ save that takes up the whole game screen which can be copied from there and imported either directly from the .txt file or pasted into a window. Note that it's impossible to get out of the save code screen after opening it.
- Griping About Gremlins: The upgrade that improves plane income by 50% says "Gremlin countermeasures improve plane safety."
- Magikarp Power: Trains. They initially start as very weak sources of profit, as they give only about 30$/sec, when a boat would give you 125$/sec. However, upgrading train cars (which becomes easy after you automate all other aspects and dedicate the staff entirely to it) a lot makes them produce even thousands of dollars per second.
- New Game Plus: You can restart the game while claiming acumen who can be spent to make later playthroughs go faster by automating processes or multiplying profits.
- Non-Standard Game Over: The evacuation minigame normally ends after the enemies pierce the shield and reach it. However, it is possible for you to nuke the planet yourself instead. The game chews you out for doing so.
- No Plot? No Problem!: No plot is provided for why you make deliveries or have to make money.
- Not-Actually-Cosmetic Award: Each achievement earned gives you one more acumen.
- Shout-Out: The skill which raises money earned by 2% for each vehicle if you have the exact same amount of each vehicle is called Perfectly Balanced.
- Unexpected Gameplay Change: The evacuation minigame changes the idle game into a much active defense of planet Earth where you have to shoot down meteors and manage earning enough money to buy upgrade and getting enough people ready for evacuation.
