Group Trading Game

For an upcoming interview I have a group trading exercise. My understanding is that there will be multiple fruits and a group of candidates as market makers.

I have seen similar posts to this on WSO however I can't seem to find anything that explains how this game will actually unfold or what strategies might be advantageous.

Thanks in advance!
