One of the masterpieces in the niche genre of business management simulation, Black Gold lets you manage the unique and intriguing oil business. The goal of the game is to promote and sell oil and defeat competitors using a number of fair and unfair strategies. A game move always takes a month, and each action in the game costs one or more days.
What makes Black Gold a classic that is eminently replayable is the game's focus on fun as opposed to complicated details that are the pitfalls in most business sims.
With a unique premise that is well exploited, solid gameplay, and a lot of fun, Black Gold will delight everyone who likes business simulation, except perhaps those who prefer more realistic and complex games such as Capitalism Plus.
