Stock Market Board Game Reviews

Faithful, but boring

Charles Merriam

It is a faithful, boring, not flashy implementation of the old classic.

Played original board game for days endlessly. Love this electronic version! Would like to see online version (GameCenter or Wi-Fi) for competition and larger share denominations for larger goals. Only issue appears to be A.I. Dice rolls don't appear truly random. Seems A.I. doesnt like large playoffs to human players. 6/10 dice rolls with large stakes will result in "predictable" outcomes causing loss of stock or money. Electronic players seem to have much better luck with dice roll outcomes.

Fun game

I'd give this game 5 stars except something needs to be done about selling/buying hundreds of thousands of shares. Trying to sell billions of dollars worth of stock 1000 shares at a time is excruciating.

Awesome game :)

My dad and I used to play the board game edition but it's been years ... Thanks for making the game for the ipad :) ... I miss Alcoa though :)

Not a bad game. The only problem, after many game-play that I have noticed is that I can almost predict the dice roll and where the chip will fall. Chances are that they will fall either where I have to payout or on a near bankrupt square. The probabilities are preset. It becomes frustrating when the dices fall against you, but worse when you can predict that it will on your roll. The dice-fall are set against human players. In other words, it's obvious the computer has been tweaked against the human player. Fix it.

Totally RIGGED doesn't deserve a fraction of a star

Stupidest game ever. It's a lot of fun but you ALWAYS land on the squares that the take EVERYTHING and they NEVER do. And it's not that they never do and u do occasionally. You land on em REPEATEDLY and they never do. It's pathetic. And doesn't deserve a fraction of a star.

Love this game!!

This is my relaxation game, and I have played it many times. I have it set to end at $100 Billion with three computer players and I win about 3/4 of the games. Played the board game years ago and really enjoy playing this on my iPad. Thanks

Excellent implementation

Gerry Beggs did an exceptional job of capturing the essence of the original board game. We began playing the original board game in the late 60's and continued for years as a family holiday tradition. Wore out two board games. This is a good old fashioned fun board game, not intending to be a stock market simulation learning tool. Hours of enjoyment for $.99, now that is a value. One caution...it is addictive.

Rigged

Like another reviewer said, when playing a computer opponent, you repeatedly land on the broker fee square. That and along with landing on the sell all consistently as you leave the shareholders area, makes this game unplayable.

It's not rigged

You just have to play the game right. The thought of it being rigged is so dumb.
