Wall Street is a board game released in 2000 for 2–6 players, 120–180 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Lasse Kronér and its main mechanics are Set Collection, Auction / Bidding, and Roll / Spin and Move.
Designed by Swedish TV celebrity Lasse Kronér. The game has some similarities to Monopoly but adds a number of twists. Players buy companies and/or stocks/funds from a range of international banks. The dividend of the funds and stocks is determined through rolls with one or two dice. Players have to pay rent when landing on someone else's company. The rent is a fixed cost depending on if the company has buildings or not. Players can at times during the game be forced to put one of their companies up for auction. The players move on the board using markers. The players can optionally buy one of two types of cars that will cause the player to move across the board at different speeds. Using "the wreck" the player always has to roll two dice. The more expensive "sports car" gives the player the option of using one OR two dice when rolling for a move. Every time the players are back at the beginning on the circular board they get and/or pay interest depending on how much money the player have in the bank and if there are any outstanding loans. The current interest rate is determined every now and then using dice rolls. The winner is the first player with 4 million in cash OR the first player who owns a complete corporation (all companies in a group) and 1.5 million in cash.
Wall Street supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Wall Street is 120–180 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Wall Street for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Wall Street has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
