Read the full game description
Wolf Street is a fast, noisy economic negotiation game built around two competing roles. Managers sell shares in their animal-run companies, while investors race to negotiate prices before the timer expires and then live with the market’s unpredictable movement. Five rounds of simultaneous bargaining, investment, payment, and changing values create separate contests for the richest manager and richest investor. A dedicated three- and four-player structure lets each participant handle both sides of the market, while larger groups divide the room into rival specialists.
