Share And Share Alike

Share And Share Alike is a moderately complex economic simulation game for 4 players, a Poker deck, and 4 Icehouse stashes (or 60 stackable tokens, like poker chips or checkers). The game starts with five companies, each with no investments. Each player starts with no shares in any companies. During the game you gain shares in companies (some of your choice and some at random) and you invest in companies by playing cards from your hand. The game ends after 15 rounds of play. The company with the most investment at the end of the game comes in first, and so on down. First place gets 1000 points. Second place gets 800 points. Third place gets 600 points. Fourth place gets 400 points. Fifth place gets 200 points. Dividing the number of points for each company by the total number of shares claimed for each company provides the share value for each share of that company. The player with the most value in shares wins the game.
