You just took over Apex Motors, a franchise store that the last GM left bleeding. You have $120,000, thirty-eight cars, a service department that can't carry the building, and a rival across the highway that wants your best closer. Run every department like a real one: • THE FLOOR — hire from real résumés with traits that matter, turn dead deals over to the desk, work the be-back list, set objectives, run Saturday meetings and contests, pick from five pay plans, and take the big pencil yourself. • THE SHOP — a flat-rate catalog of real repairs with book times, a tech ladder from lube rack to shop foreman, an express lane, loaners, a tire program, a wholesale counter, EV tooling, a body shop, and service contracts that come back as repair orders. • THE BOOKS — deals that fund through contracts in transit, factory schedules, a twelve-item month-end close, budgets, used-car water, a controller, a bank that renews your line once a year, and owners who expect a distribution. • THE MARKET — new and used lines that age differently, a book value that drifts weekly, interest rates and gas prices that move the whole county. • THE 20 GROUP — a peer composite with sixteen KPIs, the guide set by the top half of stores like yours, and a monthly action plan you're held to. • THE EMPIRE — buy the corner lot, the buy-here-pay-here, two franchise points, and finally Crestline itself. Ask Diesel, the old-timer who wanders your lot, anything about the business. Take on a twelve-scenario campaign with stars: the embezzler, the flood, the recall, the audit, the rust-belt turnaround, the empire. Learn the trade at Dealer University. Climb from Sales Manager to Dealer Principal, sell the group, and start again with a perk. Fifty-two achievements, three leaderboards, controller support, and a sandbox where nothing can go wrong.

About

Kargola

Read full description

In Kargola you run a warehouse that picks, packs and ships online orders. You start in a small garage with one aisle, four products and a single courier, and every shipment earns XP and research points to grow your business step by step. • Pick and pack: Select an order, tap the glowing shelves and your worker loads the cart. Choose the best-fit box, tape it, print the label and put it on the belt. • Beat the truck: Every courier has its own pickup times. On-time orders earn five stars; late ones cost stars and future orders. • R&D tree: Unlock 17 products through 37 research projects. Padding for the fragile vase, care for the valuable smartwatch, ribbons for gift orders. • Expand: New aisles, ramps, a loading yard, a break room and a mezzanine with a lift. Your garage turns into an industrial logistics hub. • Automate: Taping and labelling machines, picker robots, a packing robot and extra staff. Your warehouse keeps working while you are away. • Corporate bulk orders: Companies order dozens of the same item. Split them into boxes and get every box on the same truck. • Big sale days: Once a week orders double. Stock up in advance! • A second depot on the plot next door: Depot B, a covered walkway and the Kartal Kargo ramp. • Prestige: sell your depot and start over in a new city with permanent bonuses. • Seasons: New Year, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Back to School, Black Friday and holidays, with season tasks and exclusive cosmetics. • Cosmetics: worker outfits, warehouse walls, truck patterns. • Day and night music, haptic feedback, iCloud save sync, Game Center achievements and a dedicated landscape layout on iPad. Plays offline. No forced ads; ads only when you choose to watch one for a reward.
