Wall$treet (Börsenfieber in German) is a 1989 video game published by Magic Bytes.

Gameplay

[edit]

Wall$treet is a game in which a series of reports and telexes prompt players to make stock purchases and sales.[1]

Reception

[edit]

Brian Walker reviewed Wall Street for Games International magazine, and gave it a rating of 1 out of 10 (a turkey), and stated that "It might be better as a multi player game but it's doubtful. As it stands, Wall Street is merely an unusual way of finding out if you have a future as a speed typist."[1]

Brian Carroll for Game Player's PC Strategy Guide reviewed the game and said that "Wall$treet is fairly complex, presenting a market that reacts to events, dividend expenditures, borrowing, and the fluttering fortunes of the game's players."[3]
