In silhouette town, people don't use money, they barter to trade. You play as a common person in this town and in the beginning you have nothing. Find something tradable and start bartering. You can carry only one item.
Every item has a different and absurd purchasing power (orange juice is as valuable as television). When trading, + and - signs indicate the purchasing power of target items with respect to yours. When the sun sets, the item you have is your score (a round is 60 seconds - time stops when interacting). Try to help other people and don't do bad things.
Some npcs may ask for high value items for their low value items. Also some of them are very generous. If they need something, they're ready to pay with four times more valuable items. Each level has a trade path and every item in a level is reachable. If you have the item you want, just wait until the round finishes :)
- D to right, A to left
- W to interact
- Mouse to trade
- S to start the game
- If someone needs an item, simply provide it.
- First check who needs what. Don't trade until you draw a path in your mind.
- You don't have to have the item with the highest value at the end. I personally win the game when I have ice-cream.
