## What is Oil Tycoon?

Have you ever dreamed of striking oil, forming your very own petroleum empire and earning billions of dollars? Now, you can. Welcome to Oil Tycoon, the game where you extract oil across the globe, sell it, and make your fortune!
Your road to riches starts in your backyard where you first strike oil! From here, and with your first pump, you begin your extraction mission. Oil Tycoon boasts awesome idle gameplay where you tap and build to slowly forge a petroleum empire unlike any that’s come before. After successfully extracting your first batch of oil, it’s time to sell up and upgrade, which means you’re off to the stock market. Here, you monitor prices and make sure you sell up at the optimum moment to make bank! Once you’re richer than a gold mine, it’s time to upgrade! Now, you can install new barrels, move into gas production, or explore new areas and continue mining! There are thousands of upgrades and new ventures to get stuck into, providing you can take a break from mining.
As you progress, you’ll unlock new locations as you mine and extract your way across the world. Imagine building a factory in the depths of the Siberia, installing underwater gas works, and hiring a lunar miner! The possibilities for your empire are endless, and the only limit is your entrepreneurial talents.

### 5/5 — Игра супер

*2026-06-10*

Игра супер. Но пофиксите баг с тем, что луну не купить! Кнопка возврата на основную локацию загораживает кнопку луны! А так самая лучшая игра про добычу нефти.

### 2/5 — Казик

*2026-01-21*

Играю в тараканьи бега, ставлю на жирного таракана он проигрывает 5 раз потом я ставлю на дохляка и жирный выигрывает

### 5/5 — BEST EVER🤩🤩

*2025-09-16, version 4.8.0*

Not any FORCED ads it’s very fun because they’re is also gambling 🎰

### 5/5 — Дрчдрядлч

*2025-07-09*

Игра топ очень много раз играл правда когда я менял телефон у меня забрасывали я прогрес но это моя проблема и люди если хотите играть без рекламы отключите инэт

### 5/5 — Very fun idle tap game

*2024-12-01, version 4.7.5*

This is a very good and fun idle tap game, theres multiple pumps you can chose from, one even being an afk one, one having 4x oil pumps.

In my opinion, the gold 1 pump is the best because im a VERY fast tapper.

**Suggestion**
Though I would suggest that in the labortory, you can upgrade AD boosts, for example: 10 diamonds and 24 hour wait to upgrade the duration of auto click for 30 seconds (forever stackable).

### 1/5 — Stupid game

*2024-10-15, version 4.7.5*

This is the most stupid game on the planet!!!! It wasted my money!!!!!! 0 stars for you

### 5/5 — Нормальная игра и мне нравится пунькпуньк ями ями Тырма тры

*2024-10-12*

Крутая игра

### 4/5 — Interesting Game - No VIP Access

*2024-09-15, version 4.7.5*

I see this issue has been going on for 2 years according to other reviews. The option for VIP takes you to the button to pay, but it doesn't do anything when you click it.

### 5/5 — Восторг

*2024-05-16*

Круто очень круто классно и прекрасно, мы не знаем что это такое если бы мы знали что это такое мы не знаем что это такое

### 1/5 — Спасибо за обновление
