Introduction
Feed Me Oil is a physics-based puzzle game which stems from the basic concept of getting a specified amount of oil from a faucet to a distant compartment, using only gravity and a limited number of game "elements." It can really only be enjoyed being played without a guide, as puzzle games always are. The fun of the game is struggling through levels and conquering them. That said, if you are looking for a fast 200 gamerscore, using a guide will net you all the achievements in about 4 hours. If you are looking to play the game legit, you will likely spend a significant amount of time trying to complete it, but it will be much more rewarding, and your brain will definitely be tested along the way! The game is currently listed at $0.99 in the Marketplace.

Step 1: Complete the game
Play through all the levels starting from the beginning. Try as get as many stars as you can. If you want your gamerscore quick, skip to Step 2.

Step 2: Obtain 3 stars all levels
Use the video guides outlined below to obtain the rest of the stars.

Step 3: Mop-up
Complete any achievements you may have missed while getting the required amount of stars. It is likely you wont have to mop-up any, but there may be a few.

Conclusion
All in all, Feed Me Oil is a fun little puzzle game that will give you 200 fairly easy gamerscore if using a guide, and a decent amount of challenge and fun if you're not.


GUIDE

COMPLETION ACHIEVEMENTS (4 for 25 )

The following 4 achievements cannot be missed and are obtained just by completing the game.

The Fan - 5
Unlock new element.

See "Gravity Switch."

The Magnet - 5
Unlock new element.

See "Gravity Switch."

Gravity Switch - 5
Unlock new element.

These achievements unlock with natural progression. They are awarded when you get a certain new element to use in the game as you progress further through the levels. Fan appears on Level 1-8, the magnet on Level 2-2, and the gravity switch on Level 5-1.

Own Flow Seeker - 10
Find 30 original solutions.

I am not entirely certain, but I think this just requires you to complete 30 total levels, with or without hints. This unlocks after completion of the 30th level, which is 2-15.


STAR ACHIEVEMENTS (5 for 105 )

The following 5 achievements are obtained by getting stars on each level.

Wooden Cog - 5
Collect 50 stars.

See "Platinum Cog."

Stone Cog - 10
Collect 100 stars.

See "Platinum Cog."

Iron Cog - 20
Collect 150 stars.

See "Platinum Cog."

Golden Cog - 30
Collect 200 stars.

See "Platinum Cog."

Platinum Cog - 40
Collect 250 stars.

You can obtain up to 3 stars on each level. Getting 3 stars requires that you complete the level with at least 3 total unused elements remaining out of the ones you are given. 2 stars requires that you finish with 2 unused elements, while 1 star is awarded for simply completing the level. There are 6 worlds, each with 15 levels. This means the total number of possible stars is 270 (3x6x15). Since you only need 250 to unlock the achievement, you do not need to get 3 stars on all the levels. Try and get all stars on the first five worlds, as then are easier. If you do this, you only need to get a total of 25 stars on World 6.
