Turmoil is a casual business simulation game inspired by the oil rush in 19th-century North America. It is developed by Dutch game studio Gamious and published by LTGames. In Turmoil, you are up against time and rivals on your path to becoming a succesful oil entrepreneur. Start raking in the oil money and watch the town grow along with you! [Game Features] *Real-Time Strategy, Oil Field Management Acquire land at the town auction, and uncover oil with dowsers, moles, or scans. Create an efficient pipe network to get the oil above ground, and buy wagons and silos to transport and store it. Wait for the right price to sell, or use natural gas to raise the oil price yourself! *Upgrade Technology, Expand Your Connections There are dozens of upgrades and new tools that will improve your oil drilling operation. You will need them to drill through rocks, deal with natural gas pockets, and prevent oil spillage! Don't forget to visit the saloon, the people there may have some very juicy business proposals for you! *Buy Stocks, Become a Mayor Start from the bottom and rise to the top! Turmoil is not all about money, you also need town shares. Use your hard-earned cash to outbid your rivals at the stock auction and become the new mayor to win the game! *Randomly Seeded World, Challenge Your Limits Different settings and randomly generated levels provide an almost unlimited variety of oil-drilling challenges. Challenge other players to find out who's the real deal! *The Heat Is On, Get Ready for the New DLC! An entirely new campaign offers you the same oil-drilling fun, but with challenging twists and interesting bonuses. The addition of magma in the underground creates danger but also offers opportunies. You can also find underground artefacts and sell them in the village, but collecting them all might be more profitable! Play card games in the saloon to earn even more money!
