Der Disponent

Concept

A hardcore logistics management sim in the spirit of the classic German business simulations of the 90s.

“For everyone who remembers Der Planer and just got a little misty-eyed.” — Alex

Der Disponent („the dispatcher“) is a concept for a modern take on the great German Wirtschaftssimulationen: you are a dispatcher for hire, taking fixed-term turnaround contracts at struggling freight companies. Every company has its own problems — run-down fleets, demotivated drivers, lost customers, debt.

Between missions you keep your personal progress: your reputation, your possessions, your family situation. Only the company changes. The full design document is written; the concept is waiting for its turn in the prototype lab.

Key features

  • Play a crisis manager rescuing struggling freight companies across Germany
  • Dispatch orders, manage fleets, negotiate with clients
  • Career campaign over 8 chapters, from courier firm to international logistics
