Description

Wheeler Dealer is a classic economic board game that's all about making smart investments and trading your way to success. Designed by Michael Glenn and first published in 1970, this game is easy to learn and can be enjoyed by 2 to 6 players in about 60 minutes. Unlike other games in the same vein, Wheeler Dealer focuses on investing in a commodity futures exchange, where you'll use dice rolls to determine whether your investments pay off or not. With a unique blend of card drafting, set collection, and trading mechanics, you'll need to stay on your toes to come out on top. What really sets Wheeler Dealer apart is its customized editions, which were often tailored to specific small US cities and sponsored by local organizations. This means that each edition has its own unique flavor, with the game board featuring local businesses and landmarks. Despite the variations, the core gameplay remains the same, making it a great option for fans of economic and educational games. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun and interactive way to learn about trading and investing, Wheeler Dealer is a great choice. With its engaging gameplay and nostalgic charm, it's no wonder this game has remained popular for decades.
