## What is Chaichi?

Pour chai. Get rich. Slowly at first.

You start with one glass on a street corner in Sulaymaniyah. You pour it yourself, someone drinks it, and you pour another.

Then you hire a chaichi to carry the tray. You buy a samovar that never goes off the boil. A cart, because wheels beat walls. A tea house with plastic stools and a backgammon board nobody gets up from.

By the end, chai is leaving your yard for every border crossing.

• 11 things to own, from one glass to an export house
• 9 real cities, Sulaymaniyah to Basra
• 20 regulars — one comes in each day, and if you pour it how they like it they keep the seat for good
• Keeps earning while you are away

No sign-in, no internet needed, and nothing to buy. Adverts only if you tap one — nothing ever plays on its own.

An istikan is the little waisted glass. A samovar is what it comes from. A chaichi is the man carrying nine of them on one tray. Real words for real things.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-06

• The cardamom upgrades now say what they actually do
• Watch an advert to double your income for ten minutes,
  or to double the pods when you hand the shop over
• Fixes and polish

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-27

The game has a second half now.

• Hand the shop to your cousin much sooner — your first handover
  now takes about half an hour instead of most of a day, and it is
  worth five times what it was
• Cardamom now buys twelve permanent upgrades you keep forever
• Rush hour — the street empties into your shop and every pour is
  worth four times as much
• Twenty regulars instead of eight. Pour it how they like it and
  they keep the seat for good
• Thirteen milestones that pay forever
• The later shops arrive in days rather than weeks
• Optional adverts — watch one to double your overnight takings,
  or never tap them at all

### 1.0 — 2026-08-18

No release notes.
