What’s It About?
Players attempt to funnel oil from a faucet into a finishing area. To guide it, they use various objects -- such as a stick to direct the flow in certain directions, a fan to blow it, and a valve to funnel it -- to help it reach the area. After setting up the delivery system, players touch the faucet and see whether their plans work. If not, they can move things around and try again. Players earn more stars by using fewer parts to get the job done.
Is It Any Good?
As a sequel to Feed Me Oil, FEED ME OIL 2 is a nice-looking game, but it doesn't do much to advance the increasingly crowded water-puzzle genre. It has quirky robotic animals setting the stage as the puzzles, but there's not a lot of diversity in the levels. And that can cause players to lose interest. The overly aggressive push to use Facebook Connect makes it even more frustrating. It's not a bad game, necessarily, but you can't help but feel that you've been here and done this before.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
