Description
About This Game
- Play Through 12 Unique Scenarios and Over 20 Quick Play Stages
- Choose From 6 Different Companies, Each with Their Own Strengths and Weaknesses
- Go Bird Watching in your Free Time and Spot Them All
To be a successful CEO in Frack the World, you must manage various systems, including oil production, finances, environmental impact, and public perception. The game is a lite land management sort of puzzle game, with matches lasting 10 minutes on average. The gameplay has two fronts: the Underground, where you strategically extend pipes to extract oil while overcoming obstacles; and the Surface, where you build and manage facilities while dealing with external challenges like protests and pollution.
When things are running smoothly, you get to chill for a minute and distract yourself with some casual CEO things.
Try finding and viewing all of the high-fidelity birds in the sky and go read all about these majestic birds thanks to facts found in a bird book from a thrift store and sometimes Wikipedia! Lose yourself in Bird Mode! All the joys of bird watching with none of the fracking!
Hire staff and have them rattle off tons of info to you in the news scroll. Or keep your eye out for great news stories about how wonderful your business is and how fracking is actually super beneficial to the planet.
While every game may eventually end with environmental destruction, at least you can make TONS of money in the meantime. Because, honestly, every match of real life will end with planetary destruction too. But at least in this game you are the CEO!
