Ever wondered what it is like to run your own company? What it is like to own your own monopoly? Why oil prices are so high? This game provides great insight of the cutthroat business industries out there today.
This game allows you to become the "head" of a company. You have to use your brain to outwit your fellow competitors and become head of the oil business. The start seems to be difficult as you start with a rather low amount of funds and limited items, but if you invest wisely, you could create your very own economic empire and lead as one of the richest man/woman alive.

The concept of this game is very simple. Choose from four missions to undertake, and simply
fulfill them. The four missions include: be the best after 3 years, have more than a 60 million dollar capitol, ruin all other players, and own 80% of the market share. Simply meet the requirements to win the game. My personal favorite is the "ruin all other players" option.
I found the game play a little difficult at first, but once you get into the flow of things, it starts to get easier. This game is normally a strategy/management simulation game but it switches to an action type game during certain events. For example, when a person mines for oil, he takes control of the actual oil drill. The game play also allows the player to perform various actions in to accomplish his/her goal. These actions include setting fires to other company's oil rigs, stealing their oil tanks, spying, bribing, and other stuff. However, just as you can use dirty tricks to beat your opponents, they can attack you too. Hire investigators to prove the
crime, or better yet, to prevent them.
Overall I liked the game. This game provided great insight on what it was likes to own your very own monopoly. I just wish I was as rich as I was in the game. However, the game was fun and addicting I thought. This is one of the old school games that you just end up playing when you're bored. Have fun. Good luck!
