Description
In Pipeline: The Oil Game, 2 to 4 players compete to connect the wellhead in the center of the board to one of their oil tankers on the edge. With a hand of pipe tiles, including straights, elbows, Ts, crosses, and plugs, each player must strategically direct the line to outmaneuver their opponents. The rules are easy to learn, making it simple for new players to jump in, and with a playtime of just 30 minutes, you can get in a quick game whenever you want. Designed by Ed Okimura and first published in 1988, Pipeline: The Oil Game is a classic abstract strategy game that challenges players to think critically and plan ahead. With its unique tile placement mechanics, this game is all about building a path to success, and it's a great option for anyone looking for a fun and competitive experience.
