Field notes
Players search for communes by name, department, or ticker, then add to their holdings to build a portfolio on a map of France. The page describes monthly seasons, six league divisions, and a separate chill mode that keeps a collection across 96 departments. It also lists 22 stations whose tolls can be interrupted by a strike; all gameplay currency is described as fictional.
