Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Fun but boring
Review: I thought the game was really fun but after a few hours i got sick of doing the same think over and over again i wouldnt recomend buying this game.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Too Tedious
Review: Many of the repetitive features on this game could have been automated and would have made it a much better game. There is too much repition. Buy Railroad Tycoon instead.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good game, but gets old fast
Review: Overall, Oil Tycoon is a very-well structured game. The game itseself, however, wears out its flair after a couple of hours. The gameplay focuses on making money, but if you obtain a stable business account, the game gets incredibly tedious. For instance, before you can build your own oil tankers to haul oil to either your own oil refinary, or, more likely, a neutral refinary. In order to get these tankers, you need to charter them. The contract expires after one haul, so you have to charter ships over and over and over again until you just want to vomit. Also, when you construct a new oil well, you have to hire employees and engineers, as well as buying/leasing new equipment and getting food for your miners.

Oil Tycoon isn't a bad game; it just gets old too fast. Overall, this is a good simulation game for you hyper-realists, but otherwise, beware.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun but ODD
Review: When I first saw the game I thought it would be the stupidest thing ever made because it sounds like it would be stupid. Then I tried it. It was fun but still sounded ... It gets boring after a while though.
