Oiligarchy

Oiligarchy is a satirical strategy game where players take on the role of a CEO in charge of an oil company. The goal is to dominate the global oil market by extracting and selling oil, manipulating politics, and maximizing profits, all while navigating the ethical and environmental consequences of your actions. The game is set in a world where the thirst for oil drives economic and political decisions, and players must balance the desire for wealth with the impact of their decisions on the planet and society.

The gameplay focuses on managing resources, upgrading infrastructure, and making decisions that affect the world’s geopolitics. As you grow your company, you can invest in drilling technologies, bribe governments, or even start wars to maintain your monopoly. The more successful you are, the more your influence expands, but the game also explores the repercussions of unchecked greed, such as environmental destruction, social unrest, and economic collapse.

With its tongue-in-cheek tone, Oiligarchy serves as both an engaging simulation game and a commentary on the real-world effects of the oil industry. The game challenges players to think strategically while reflecting on the ethical dilemmas surrounding environmental sustainability and corporate power.
