Flowist plays out a whole life: from your first paycheck to 48 years later, every year is your call. NO WAITING Flowist is not an idle game. Nothing ticks in the background — a year only moves when you press "End Year". Close the app, come back a week later, and the game is exactly where you left it. You decide how long a session lasts; the game never puts you on a clock. HOW A YEAR GOES · Flow — the year's events arrive as cards: a job offer, a raise, a breakdown, health, family. Some cards are a roll of the dice, and the real odds are printed on the card. No blind gambles. · Investing — read the economy, build a portfolio, manage your buy list, hire or fire advisors. · Personal — education, habits, insurance and your records. Insurance is a fresh call every year. When the year ends you get a report: what came in, where it went, how you stand against last year. YOU LEARN TO READ THE STATEMENTS A live income statement and balance sheet are kept the whole way through — they fill in as you play. The first time a term shows up it goes into the glossary, and you can go back to it whenever you want. The point isn't memorising definitions; it's seeing why the numbers came out that way. FOUR COUNTRIES, FOUR DIFFICULTIES · Türkiye (TRY) — high inflation, a volatile economy. Just holding on to money is a skill. · United States (USD) — strong markets and salaries; taxes bite, health and education cost. · Europe (EUR) — stability and strong public healthcare; but heavy taxes and a narrow pay range. · Dubai (AED) — no income tax, savings pile up fast. The easiest run, and scored accordingly. Each country carries its own score multiplier, so the same game has four difficulty settings. ALSO · Badges you unlock along the way, and a dream to aim at. · Seven languages: Turkish, English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Chinese. · One-handed, built for iPhone. WHAT'S FREE The first 9 years are free and no account is needed. A yearly subscription continues the run and also removes ads. While playing free you'll see a banner, and the game offers optional rewarded ads — decline them and play carries on regardless. Because the free version is ad-supported, it needs an internet connection to play; the subscription also unlocks offline play. If you let the subscription lapse, the years you already played are never deleted. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS · Flowist Full Version — yearly subscription, auto-renewing. · Payment is charged to your Apple account when the purchase is confirmed. · The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; the renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends. · After purchase you can manage the subscription and turn off auto-renewal in Settings → your name → Subscriptions. · Terms of use: https://zekcrc.github.io/flowist-legal/kosullar-ios.html · Privacy policy: https://zekcrc.github.io/flowist-legal/gizlilik-ios.html ONE NOTE Flowist is an educational simulation, not investment advice. Its economies, returns and prices are the game's own model; they carry no real market data and involve no real money.

About

Kargola

Read full description

In Kargola you run a warehouse that picks, packs and ships online orders. You start in a small garage with one aisle, four products and a single courier, and every shipment earns XP and research points to grow your business step by step. • Pick and pack: Select an order, tap the glowing shelves and your worker loads the cart. Choose the best-fit box, tape it, print the label and put it on the belt. • Beat the truck: Every courier has its own pickup times. On-time orders earn five stars; late ones cost stars and future orders. • R&D tree: Unlock 17 products through 37 research projects. Padding for the fragile vase, care for the valuable smartwatch, ribbons for gift orders. • Expand: New aisles, ramps, a loading yard, a break room and a mezzanine with a lift. Your garage turns into an industrial logistics hub. • Automate: Taping and labelling machines, picker robots, a packing robot and extra staff. Your warehouse keeps working while you are away. • Corporate bulk orders: Companies order dozens of the same item. Split them into boxes and get every box on the same truck. • Big sale days: Once a week orders double. Stock up in advance! • A second depot on the plot next door: Depot B, a covered walkway and the Kartal Kargo ramp. • Prestige: sell your depot and start over in a new city with permanent bonuses. • Seasons: New Year, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Back to School, Black Friday and holidays, with season tasks and exclusive cosmetics. • Cosmetics: worker outfits, warehouse walls, truck patterns. • Day and night music, haptic feedback, iCloud save sync, Game Center achievements and a dedicated landscape layout on iPad. Plays offline. No forced ads; ads only when you choose to watch one for a reward.
