Power Grid: The Stock Companies Expansion

Manufacturer: Rio Grande Games

The expansion Power Grid: The Stock Companies offers players a completely new game experience, specifically three new ways to play either Power Grid or Power Grid Deluxe.

The main game is The Stock Companies. As shareholders, the players want to get control over different stock companies so they can acquire the greatest wealth.

The two variants are a little bit closer to the well-known Power Grid experience.
- The Biggest Electricity Distributors: In this first variant the players are shareholders who try to get shares of the most successful companies that supply electricity to the most cities.
- The Competition of the Private Companies: In this second variant the players control their private stock companies and try to establish them successfully on the electricity market. They sell shares of their own companies to generate more cash and they are able to buy shares of other players' companies. Thus, they can also earn a portion of the other players' successes.
