About the Game

You work for Freedom Delivery Solutions — an official United States Government contractor specializing in energy security, strategic deterrence, and the timely delivery of democracy to volatile regions.

Your current assignment: the Strait of Hormuz.

Your General has a target. He needs oil at a specific price per barrel. He's given you a deadline. He hasn't given you much else — except a fleet, a deck of cards, and an opinion on everything.

Your mission is simple. The execution is anything but.

  • Deploy warships to escalate conflict or enforce a ceasefire until you are ready.

  • Play strategy cards: airstrikes, embargoes, diplomatic pressure

  • React to live Situation Room events: OPEC decisions, geopolitical shocks, rogue state provocations

  • Watch the oil price ticker — every action has a market consequence

The catch? Your General is spectacularly unqualified, some call him an idiot. He'll tweet during crises. He'll claim credit for your victories. A sharp political satire wrapped in a strategy game.

"Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Tremendously coincidental. The best coincidence. Nobody has ever seen such a coincidence."
