About the GameTurmoil offers players a visually charming, tongue-in-cheek take on the simulation genre inspired by the 19th century oil rush in North America. Get a taste of the rush and rivalry of the time as you earn your way to become a successful oil entrepreneur. As you make money digging up and selling oil, the town will grow along with you.
Lease land at the town auction and search for oil. Build a rig, create an efficient pipe network and bring up the oil to store it in silos. Sell the oil at the best times to maximize profits. Then buy essential upgrades in town to cope with rock, gas and ice. Acquire more town shares than your competitors in a bid to become the new mayor.

- Dozens of upgrades and new tools to improve your oil mining operations.
- Meet the town’s characters in the saloon and make shady business deals.
- Play single game mode to get one of literally millions of procedurally generated levels and earn as much as you can in one year.
- Steam Achievements, Badges, Trading Cards and Cloud Saving.
- Lease land at the town auction and search for oil using a dowser, mole or scanner.
- Maximize your profits by using natural gas to boost the oil price.
- Outbid your competitors at the stock auction.

My Two Cent Review
I have been playing this game on and off since I was in high school years ago and I still play it on and off today. This is one of those games you can keep coming back to time and time again because it's always going to be a different run. You may get luckily and hit it big or run dry continuously and go bankrupt. You start off with a modest sum to get you up and going and have to budget for expedition costs, bribes, shares to become mayor, and upgrades. You can either play with AI or play with your friends as you all run your own respective oil harvesting companies competing with one another. The multiplayer is turn base with you all being able to take your time during your rounds but none of you may start the next season until everyone finishes there current season. It is also great to know at the time writing this the developers are still updating this game that came out in 2016 which was nearly 8 years ago as of time of writing which is insane! At the beginning of the game don't expect to make a lot but as you upgrade and invest more in bribes officials to keep fines low and prices high you will go far. All in all this is a very unique game that stands out as a fun competitive gold rush style game where ya either go big or go home.
The Value Of The Game
This game is worth getting on sale to play with friends. There will be plenty of fun to be had with friends as well as the AI if you aren't a big people person. It's a fun luck based strategy game where if ya play smart you'll go far.
Final Score 81/100 Ranking B- Tier

A nice chill little sim game as the mechanics are complex enough to be a fun game to play while watching TV. For singleplayer, it's worth a purchase for a couple of bucks, but I'm not sure if there's enough content for a full price buy.

The right amount of engaging vs. passive. A fun resource management game, albeit through the evils of oil!

Had fun playing for a few days, but honestly, for this price, all DLCs should just be part of the base game. The original game itself doesn’t have much replay value - once you’ve beaten both campaigns, that’s pretty much it.
There’s multiplayer, but it feels pointless since the replays are glitched. You can’t watch how other players handle things, just the final results. Makes it a bit underwhelming, to be honest.
