Wall Street Raider, stylized as Wall $treet Raider, is a 1989 video game published by Intracorp.

Gameplay

Wall $treet Raider is a game in which players use the stock market to take over companies.[1] Up to four players could play, and divided a billion dollars between them.[2]

Packaging

Intracorp included a coupon for a free rental of the film Wall Street with every purchase of the game.[2]

Reception

John Harrington reviewed Wall $treet Raider and Wall Street Wizard for Games International magazine, and gave it a rating of 6 out of 10, and stated that "Raider is a little dry as a solo game; you start the game with a considerable fortune and the temptation is to say '$250 000 is enough for any man, I'll emigrate to the Bahamas'.."[1]

Daniel Carr for Computer Play called it "a BIG game" and "corporate warfare at its best".[3]
