    What the game is actually teaching

    Market Mission connects four skills that belong to one purchase. Read or listen to the unit price, count complete pairs, match your reply to the seller’s stated terms, then multiply the agreed price by the quantity. A mistake never ends the mission: read the correction and continue with the stated facts.

    Help reveals pinyin and reply meanings. After a missed or supported answer, the next stage offers help automatically. The receipt keeps your original answers and shows which stages used help. You can save unfamiliar words to your device’s Review deck or continue to the shopping phrases and vocabulary.

    Frequently asked questions

    How does the game decide when to bargain?

    Each scene tells you this seller’s terms. One seller invites negotiation; the other states a fixed price. Choose a reply that fits your goal and those terms. Neither scene is a rule about all shops or people.

    Is there a time limit?

    No. Read, replay the price or use help at your own pace. The mission finishes after four answers and awards study progress once. It does not submit a ranked score. The separate simulator retains its own score.

    Are the prices in the game realistic?

    All prices, discounts and seller reactions are fictional practice facts. The simulator’s floor is a game parameter, not a “local price.” Real prices and willingness to negotiate vary; no discount or tactic is guaranteed.
