Wildcatting
Description
Up to four people can compete as oil tycoons in Wildcatting. Compete with other players to figure out the "hot spots" on the shared map where the oil is to be found. However, finding oil is only half the battle; taxes and cost of drilling soon begin to influence the game. Anticipate the shift and try to out sell the competition for the win.
