Petropolis invites you to dive into the exciting and volatile world of oil, where 2 to 7 players compete to become the most powerful tycoons. Originally released in 1976, this classic puts you in charge of concessions in oil-producing countries, with the goal of controlling them, operating them, and, of course, accumulating the largest fortune in petrodollars. It's a game that, at first glance, might remind you of a certain real estate classic, but with an oily and much more dramatic twist!

The game dynamic is quite familiar: you roll the dice, move your piece around the board, and deal with the events that arise along the way. Instead of famous streets, you acquire concession titles in oil-rich nations. The traditional 'Chance' cards are replaced by 'Telex Messages,' which can bring both good news and unexpected twists to your business. And, of course, instead of houses and hotels, you build oil platforms and derricks to extract black gold and increase your profits. The components are a highlight, with well-crafted pieces that help immerse you in the atmosphere of a true oil baron. Get ready to negotiate, take risks, and dominate the global energy market!
