Old Market Restored

Old Market Restored makes correct placement the source of your next improvement. The official description says returning products to their appropriate crates, shelves and stands earns reputation, which pays for skills and upgrades that help the cleanup.

The objects are not all waiting neatly in the aisle. The developer specifically describes products beneath stands, behind counters and on stairs. Searching the market is therefore part of restoring it, alongside working out the destination of what you find.

The listing positions this as preparation for a functioning market, without the pressure of actually running one. Reputation comes from the restoration task, rather than a stated need to serve shoppers while clearing the floor. It does not supply placement rewards or skill prices, so the speed of that progression remains untested.

If you prefer recovering order to managing retail demand, inspect how the reputation upgrades change a search or a return trip. The market has a useful loop to investigate: putting the current product back should help you handle the next part of the mess.
