One of Schedule 1’s game mechanics is the Curfew. There are a few gimmicks to Curfew. Here we explain Curfew in Schedule 1.
In the world of Schedule 1, you avoid cops like you avoid legal ways to do business on the streets. The curfew is a more risk, more reward game mechanic that lets players decide whether the extra cash is beneficial in trade for increased chances to get arrested. Let’s find out what a curfew in Schedule 1 is like.
NOTE: This article focuses on Schedule 1 and its content, which is a video game set in a fictional world. Items, recipes, etc, mentioned in the article are exclusively from the game and don’t refer to anything in real life.
Curfew in Schedule 1
The cops are the first thing you avoid after lowball customers. But Schedule 1 also rewards you for not participating in the curfew. In your in-game world, curfew starts at 9 PM and ends at 5 AM everyday. You can choose to sleep during this while or do some business with increased risks and rewards. If you go out during a curfew, the police will be on the lookout for you and your friends. This means that if a cop spots you, you will be instantly arrested on the spot without any questions.
But Schedule 1 promotes doing business during curfew. Why? With increased cash rewards multiplying on every deal, business during curfew is more profitable. But the risk is that you have to be very discreet during this time period, as cops are on the active lookout for suspicious individuals (only you.) You can avoid cops by hiding in the dumpsters, crouching and moving around, or hiding in the bushes and hard-to-see corners.
Facing arrest will make you unable to enter your houses or the warehouse. So, you will have to instantly start running and find a dumpster or a corner where the cops are not able to see you. Then you wait till your “WANTED” bar empties (on the top center of the screen) and start doing business again.
You can do business deals during curfew till 4 AM, then the game will tell you to sleep to start the next day. So, there is a certain limit to the curfew, and the days are not exactly seamless in Schedule 1. The weird thing about Schedule 1 curfew is that the curfew only applies to you. This breaks the game’s immersion as you spot several NPCs roaming around like they do in the day. Hopefully, in the next update, the game will limit the number of NPCs that roam around during the night or move discreetly to provide that immersion of being a small-town drug dealer to a drug lord (in-game.)
