How to Play
Overview
"The base mechanic of the game and what makes it flow is the flow of the oil itself. It's basically a dice placement and manipulation puzzle. [...] Apart from the super enjoyable puzzle and the combos from collecting oil, there is also player interaction."
"There's a lot of pushing your luck from a load of different angles, and how much are you willing to risk giving the other players an advantage to get yourself one."
Thematic Endings
At the end of the game each player reads their individual thematic story text, which depends on the amount of oil collected, and their oil difference compared to the winner’s. The game comes with 33 unique endings. Here is a sneak peek:
