📖 About This Game

In a not so distant future, Earth's Oil reserves run out. Using inferior energy sources, humanity takes to the stars in search of something comparable to the black gold. After some time, planet EX-/Z96 is found, and the long range scanners indicate that it contains tremendous reserves of Oil. The search is over, and the scramble begins - the Oil must flow. The Oil Must Flow is a re-implementation of Heiko Günther's award-winning Dune: The Dice Game. Set in the Peak Oil universe, The Oil Must Flow builds on its forefather's mechanics, streamlining them and offering new gameplay options. —description from the publisher
