With peak oil looming ahead, you try to squeeze the last drops from oil fields around the world to gather the resources to invest into various oil replacement technologies. While you may try to emerge from the coming crisis by regular means, your competitors will most probably not, forcing you to dirty your hands as well.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn your turn in \u003cstrong\u003ePeak Oil\u003c\/strong\u003e, you assign your agents to different action spots on the board. If your agents are in the majority at any given action spot, or you decide to send mercenaries to their help, they squelch the competition there and allow you to take the linked action. Actions include developing and harvesting oil fields, building pipelines, hiring new agents, buying new ship contracts, investing in oil replacement technologies, conducting PR campaigns, engaging in piracy, and manipulating public opinion and oil prices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter some time, the oil — represented by a set number of small barrels you draw from a bag when developing new oil fields — will run out. This is called \"peak oil\" and marks the end of the game. Players tally the value of the technologies in which they invested and promoted during the game.
