Description:
Players compete to earn the most money in the world of Oil Exploration. Players explore the oil fields with their trucks and decide whether to establish oil rigs on the sites they find. Each established well produces one barrel of oil per day, which must be transported back to the refineries via rail line or it will be lost. Since the rail line gradually extends across the board throughout the game, transporting any oil found beyond the current range of the rail line is more costly. Money is earned by selling the oil to one of the three oil companies, but the price is always fluctuating, and each company will only make one purch
Players compete to earn the most money in the world of Oil Exploration. Players explore the oil fields with their trucks and decide whether to establish oil rigs on the sites they find. Each established well produces one barrel of oil per day, which must be transported back to the refineries via rail line or it will be lost. Since the rail line gradually extends across the board throughout the game, transporting any oil found beyond the current range of the rail line is more costly. Money is earned by selling the oil to one of the three oil companies, but the price is always fluctuating, and each company will only make one purchase per round, so players compete to sell in an auction. The game ends when the public rail line reaches the far side of the board, at which time each player earns a bonus for the value of his remaining oil wells, and the development of his rail line. Adding this to the money each player has earned through oil sales, the player with the most money wins the game.
