Developed by A2 Softworks and Manager Games S.A., the strategy game made its debut in March 2022 on PC. Currently, positive player reviews make up 84% of all reviews on Steam. In April 2023, the game hit Nintendo Switch as well.
The studio tasked with porting to and publishing the game on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is Ultimate Games S.A. Owing to the backward compatibility feature, Drill Deal – Oil Tycoon also runs on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Drill Deal – Oil Tycoon is a game that combines economic strategy, simulator, and base-building games. It boasts voxel graphics and a good dose of humor. The gameplay involves the construction and further development of the platform, extracting raw materials, managing employees, advancing technology, and responding to various emergencies.
The developers prepared a total of eight varied story scenarios, along with unique locations and challenges for each of them. There’s also a sandbox mode for more freedom.
