Schnäppchenjäger

Within the Game-Hommage “bargain-hunter” (Schnäppchenjäger) from Jan Cordes and Jens M. Stober, the players can buy works of art in the halls of the art KARLSRUHE. In the first-person-shopper-game, one has to buy with bundles of cash art in a hall of art KARLSRUHE. Not the maximum amount money is restricted, but time determines the game. Time is limited. Within that given time as many works of art must be bought by throwing bundles of money on them. Each work of art has its own specific price - the higher the more points. Another way the player is to sign the works with a thick felt-tip pen. This modification of the artwork can increase or decrease the value.
