Sent to a Medieval World Where I can Shop Online
Overview Transported to a low-tech medieval fantasy realm, you discover a unique blessing: access to an interdimensional modern marketplace where you can purchase real-world goods at 1/10th of the standard silver exchange price and sell them to medieval locals for substantial profits. Start from humble beginnings selling small goods on a roadside blanket, navigate customer haggling and guild politics, hire local staff, and expand your business into a flourishing trade empire!
Core Mechanics
Cross-World Arbitrage: Buy modern items (spices, mirrors, steel tools, soap, fabrics) using your silver power at a 90% discount, then price and sell them to eager local buyers.
Business Progression: Upgrade your shop step-by-step from a street blanket to a covered market booth, a permanent storefront, and ultimately a multi-story trade emporium.
Staff & Management: Hire local townspeople as clerks, security guards, or accountants. Manage their wages, loyalty, and skills.
Dynamic Medieval Economy: Adapt to local supply and demand, seasonal shifts, tax collectors, and rival merchant guilds trying to squeeze out your competition.
Everyday Items as Rare Artifacts: To a low-tech medieval society, a simple $1 plastic lighter is a portable fire-casting spell, a stainless steel pocket knife is an indestructible blade forged by legendary smiths, and a clear glass mirror is an priceless treasure fit for a queen.
Awe, Suspicion, & Demand: Watch local villagers, tavern keepers, scholars, and nobles react with wonder (and sometimes greedy envy) when you introduce clean, mass-produced modern marvels into their agrarian world.
How to Play Decide what stock to import, set your prices, negotiate with customers, and reinvest your profits to build your business empire!
