About This Game

Start with nothing. End with everything — or nothing again.

Pick your character and the journey will begin at 18 with a single, defining choice: Academic pursuit or the immediate grind? Build your legacy from the ground up as you navigate the complexities of adulthood.

Will you build a family empire where your children become your most trusted executives? Or will your parenting choices limit their potential? In this life sim, the "right upbringing" is the difference between an Ivy League CEO and a missed opportunity.

Wall Street Trader is a deep financial life simulation where every month is a decision. Buy low, sell high, start a business, get married, raise kids, go to prison — the American Dream has never been this volatile.

TRADE THE MARKET

Over 100 stocks across Tech, Healthcare, Finance, Energy, Retail, and more — each with real financial fundamentals. PE ratios, dividend yields, earnings per share — this isn't a clicker game. Study the market, read the news, and make your move.

• Follow sector trends and react to breaking news

• Track earnings calendars and trade the gap

• Ride bull markets and survive the crashes

• Unlock insider tips from shady business contacts (just don't get caught)

YOLO MODE

Not patient enough for buy-and-hold? Enter YOLO mode — a week-long options trading minigame powered by real Black-Scholes pricing. Trade calls and puts, build multi-leg strategies, and watch your portfolio swing in real time. Earn achievements like Diamond Hands, get inducted into the Hall of Fame, and pray your earnings bet pays off.

BUILD YOUR EMPIRE

Trading is just the beginning. Use your profits to build something bigger:

• Start a Company — Design products, hire employees, manage R&D, and take your startup public with an IPO

• Own a Sports Franchise — Manage the New York "Gents", sign players, upgrade the stadium, and fill seats

• Launch a Rocket Company — Fund R&D, complete missions, secure government contracts, and push the frontier of space

• Run a Media Empire — Generate headlines, control the narrative, and build an audience (But don't get caught manipulating stock prices with bogus stories!)

• Found a Charity — Solve global problems in education, healthcare, climate, or poverty

LIVE YOUR LIFE

This isn't just a trading sim. It's a life sim.

• Date — Eleven unique love interests. Take them on dates, fall in love, get married, or get your heart broken

• Raise a Family — Have kids, name them, and choose between community college and the Ivy League

• Climb the Career Ladder — Work fast food, grind through an office job, earn your MBA, or become an executive

• Buy the Lifestyle — Upgrade from a basement to a penthouse. Buy sports cars, private jets, and yachts.

FACE THE CONSEQUENCES

Every decision has weight. Get too greedy and the SEC comes knocking.

• Insider trading investigations with evidence gathering and courtroom trials

• Hire lawyers ranging from a public defender to a multi-person defense team

• Serve time in Club Fed (Fancy Prison) — or worse

• Market crashes can wipe out years of progress in a single turn

• Bankruptcy is always one bad bet away

HOW WILL YOUR STORY END?

Retire at 65 with billions in the bank and a family that loves you. Or flame out at 40 with an SEC record, an ex-wife, and a portfolio of worthless calls.
