Sharenanigans: Investing Boardgame 🎲 Pre-Order 12th Dec

At Sharenanigans, we’re on a mission to spark curiosity and conversations around investing in shares at the dinner table and in classrooms.

Our game isn’t just about rolling the dice and making moves; it sparks discussions and ingrains knowledge in its players.

By introducing investing in a fun and engaging way, to young players alongside their friends and family, we're the first step in sparking an initial interest in investing.

Sharenanigans helps break down barriers and bridge the intergenerational knowledge gap, empowering everyone to understand investment opportunities and make smarter financial choices.

Challenge your friends and family to become the wealthiest by building your investing portfolio!

The main objective of Sharenanigans is to grow your wealth the quickest to complete each game’s specific goal card.

Players begin their turn by buying and selling shares based on the four different industry market prices, encouraging them to buy low and sell high.

Supply and demand are simply demonstrated by market prices increasing for every share purchased and decreasing for every sale.

Players then roll the dice and land on either a market event which affects the market prices or they land on a Fat Cat/ Wolf square.

Fat Cat cards help players out and Wolf cards are used against your components to mess with their gameplay, adding to the competitive aspect.

1. Choose a 'long-term' or 'short-term' investing goal for the game.
2. Buy or sell shares in one of the four industries.
3. Move the market price slider to indicate the industry share prices.
4. Roll the dice.
5. Land on a market event and move the market price slider accordingly.
6. Or, land on a Fat Cat/Wolf tile and decide whether you want to give yourself the upper hand or ruin someone else's gameplay.
7. Build your portfolio to win!

Investing has never been more important (or more confusing!). Experts say that early investing education leads to smarter risk-taking, stronger confidence, and better long-term outcomes. (OECD PISA, 2023)

Yet, between market volatility, crypto trends, and social media “finance gurus,” it’s no wonder so many young Australians feel investing is out of reach. Research shows that only 1 in 3 Australians under 25 invest, yet over 70% want to learn how but don’t know where to start. (ASX Investor Study 2023)

At the same time, fewer than 20% of Australian teens understand basic investing concepts like diversification or compound growth. (Financial Basics Foundation, 2022)

That’s why Sharenanigans exists, to make investing concepts fun, familiar, and accessible. By turning strategy and decision-making into play, it builds real-world understanding and sparks lifelong curiosity about how money grows.

The earlier you pique your kids' interest in investing, the more comfortable they become with learning about finance and starting to invest.

Our future generations' financial knowledge shouldn't be solely dependent on what their parents know or were taught. Many don't hear about investing until they've already built up perceived barriers about who can invest and what it takes.

Sharenanigans introduces key investing concepts through fun and interactive gameplay, making it accessible to everyone, even for families new to the subject. This increases the chances of players wanting to learn more and start investing.
