About Oil Baron
The game has 7 locations with special tasks. You must fulfill them until the end of the day. It can be used to collect N amount of oil or earn several thousand $.
To start playing, you need to choose the complexity of the game. There are 5 difficulty levels (easy-normal-difficult-very complicated-insane). It is recommend to put it on easy or normal to start. After selecting the difficulty, you are moved to the location selection. At each of the locations there is a different atmosphere. When you hit the location you are given the opportunity to look around, after which you can hire a geologist for $ 200, which shows the approximate location of the oil.
Or you can manually guess the source. At light levels of complexity, oil is often seen on the surface, so the complexity within the search is minimized.
Buy an oil rig for $ 1000, and immediately after you can buy an oil storage tank. After installing the tank, you choose the depth of the well. The deeper, the more money you need to spend. You can be lucky and get an oil, but you if missed a bit - you can hit the edge of the source. Every second the oil source becomes smaller, and as a result, the oil rig stops working. At this point the game is not FINISHED. You can sell the current tower for $ 400 together with the tank and set a NEW one. You can buy an unlimited number of towers, but at one location there can't be no more ONE. After the tank has the right amount of oil you put it in a bucket and carry it for sale. Do not put the tower too far from the market. Time is important here. The rate can random pop up between 0.20 $ / 1 unit of oil (in one bucket without pumping 15 units of oil). Wait for a better course ($ 3-4) and then sell. For each oil sale you get 15 units of experience, when you reach the right amount, you level-up. You get improvements for each level. You spend them on a bunch buns that improve the gameplay and make it more dynamic, everything happens faster.

Dig and sell oil in different levels. This feels like a WEB game. Game has many bugs. Games idea is good, yet the game was forgotten. Honestly, the tutorial itself is bad. Controls aren't explained. You move with arrows. Collect a bucket of oil by pressing on the black dot. Lacking translation in some places. Main language for the game is Russian. Price flactuation is a cool feature. Mostly always wait when it is 4$ or close to 4$ to sell. Upgrades have a nice idea, yet getting those points takes a lot of time. I didn't see a point why would you buy the houses, other than getting achievements for doing so. This was a game I left behind (I think) 2 or 3 times and came back to it again, yet this time a friend reminded me of game versions.. Why I wasn't finishing the game at the very beginning? Because achievements are semi-broken. You can't get 4 achievements in the latest game version. (Idk if it is completely the same for everyone.) For me those were: 1. Finish level 1 (although I completed it like 30+ times) 2. Finish level 7 3. Buy Log House 4. Buy Cottage (bought like 5 times) But you can get them in previous game version, to be exact: -app 936930 -depot 93…2 found this helpful
Bad copy of another game called "Turmoil". Barely anything works, the translation is only partial. Achievements are broken. Cant figure out how to sell oil without ending the day. Its just broken, dont bother. Im on a quest of at least trying every game in my library, of which I got plenty from all kinds of bundles, not all though. If you are interested in my journey, check out my other reviews :)1 found this helpful
