Our take on OPEC IDLE
The pitch opens with becoming an oil magnate in a few days, but the described play is an incremental loop of pumping, selling, buying upgrades, and restarting. The store text gives no detail about how contracts or seller management vary over time.
What is OPEC IDLE?
OPEC IDLE is an incremental game about building an oil-selling operation.
Start by pumping oil by hand and selling it with available containers, then buy additional containers and automatic pumps to expand production. Hire sellers, equip them with artifacts, and buy potions that increase pump efficiency. Contracts add deliveries to distant countries. The game also includes restarts, each of which grants bonus skills for the next run. Its graphics are minimalistic, and the vendor says there are no in-game purchases.
