About Çekçek: Istanbul Collector
Every morning in Tarlabaşı, a kind collector pulls his little wooden cart into the streets of Istanbul, with his cat Pamuk trotting beside him. Rummage through bins, sort paper, cardboard and metal, sell to the scrap dealer and grow from a wooden handcart into the finest cart in the city. BUT EVERY BIN HIDES A STORY Now and then you find something special: an old ferry token, a shellac record, a silver pocket watch. Take them to the antique dealer in Çukurcuma to be appraised and complete your albums of old Istanbul. RETURN LOST TREASURES Some items have owners. Find Uncle Hasan whose ferry token brought him luck for 40 years, the barber who can't cut hair without his radio, the kid who lost his champion marble… Return them, earn the neighborhood's respect and unlock 26 warm, funny stories. FEATURES • Relaxing idle gameplay: your collector keeps working, even while you're away • 8 Istanbul districts to explore: Tarlabaşı, Kadıköy, Eminönü, Nişantaşı, İkitelli, Maslak, the Grand Bazaar and Bebek on the Bosphorus • Day and night cycle, rain in Nişantaşı, ferries, taxis, dolmuş and seagulls • 5 carts and dozens of upgrades: gloves, boots, sorting, haggling and a keen eye • 30 collectible treasures in 5 albums • Street friends: a street dog, a seagull and a donkey who join your journey • Monthly Game Center leaderboard • Handcrafted clay-toy art style • Play in English or Turkish No account needed, playable offline. The game is free with optional rewarded ads and optional one-time purchases. Support: https://mustafaydogduuu.github.io/cekcek/ Privacy: https://mustafaydogduuu.github.io/cekcek/privacy.html
