This is a Stock Exchange Game, which is both captivating and easy to learn. Each player starts with £300 and tries to make a further £300 by drawing dividends and by buying and selling shares in traded companies. There are six companies shown in six colours, irrespective of the number of players. Players do not own any company (or peg). The only way a player can obtain an interest in a company is by buying its shares. Players may invest all their money in one company or spread it over several companies as they please. Dice decide the dividends paid on the various shares and these in turn influence the share values. Frequently during the game, players may be able to predict which shares are likely to rise and fall in the immediate future and can buy or sell accordingly. For instance, they may buy a cheap share likely to rise or sell a high priced share likely to fall. ‘Market News Cards’ however, may upset their calculations. The game is thus a mixture of luck and skill.

This is a rare and great compact game using dice and cards in tandem to speculate and gamble on the highs and lows of six companies.
