Schedule 1 places you in the role of a low-level dealer trying to survive in Hyland Point, a gritty fictional city on the West Coast. With no contacts or resources at the start, the challenge is to build an illegal business from scratch. The gameplay revolves around balancing risk and profit while navigating increasingly aggressive law enforcement and competing criminal groups. Every decision, from the drugs you produce to the routes you use for delivery, influences your standing in the underground economy.
As you progress, you’ll need to set up manufacturing, manage distribution, and defend your assets. Each type of drug requires a different production method, and you must experiment with combinations to discover new formulas. This adds a layer of strategy, as not all products are equal in value or demand. Expanding your network and securing the supply chain is key to moving from street-level sales to a full-scale operation.
There are multiple systems in place that players must master to thrive:
Balancing these systems is essential for growing your empire without collapsing under pressure.
The more you expand, the more resistance you face. Police units become more persistent, and rival gangs respond with violence. To survive, you need to manage your public profile, upgrade your defenses, and sometimes engage in open combat. The game provides options for melee, firearms, or stealth approaches. The multiplayer mode allows teams to cooperate and manage a shared empire, adding both complexity and teamwork to the core gameplay.
Schedule 1 mixes economic simulation with street-level action, offering players a detailed look at an illegal trade in a stylized environment. With evolving systems and escalating tension, it challenges players to manage growth while avoiding destruction. Whether playing alone or with others, the road to power is steep and full of difficult choices.
