Turmoil is a simulation game set during the 19th century oil rush in North America. Get a taste of the rush and rivalry of the time as you earn your way to become a successful oil entrepreneur. As you make money digging up and selling oil, the town will grow along with you. Acquire more town shares than your competitors in a bid to become the new mayor.
The game offers a great concept with several fun aspects, including a peek into the early days of oil drilling with horse and buggy—which I found quite cool. However, the slower pace and repetitive nature, combined with the monotonous music, made it challenging for me to stay fully engaged.
Turmoil is a very good economic and strategy game with simple 2D graphics. You move in a western business world and fight to become the capo of a newly founded city.
Turmoil is very agile and fun, with mechanics that are simple and challenging at the same time. Contrasting steps that combine long-term planning and quick decision making, the title is recommended for players who prefer that dose of action during the strategy.

WORTH CONSIDERING - Turmoil is in fact a quite charming game, with a soothing soundtrack and a really clean 2d art style. The gameplay is casual, but addictive and at no time did I ever feel overwhelmed by any of the sim management aspects. It was a fun time for me hopping into the year 1899 and drilling for black gold.
