chiku the dog wants to cook something new every day. Help chiku shop at the market, fill the fridge, and cook the dish, one step at a time.
Along the way, meet foods from all over the world. Where does a mango grow? What is okra called in other languages? What can a banana become? Every food has a little story, and every dish you cook goes into your recipe book.
HOW IT PLAYS
Tap a food at the market, spell its name with letter tiles (free hints, or skip), and it hops into your basket. Drag it into the fridge. Drag it into the pot. Rub, chop, stir, and a dish appears on the table. At the end of the day, pull the light string and chiku goes to sleep. Tomorrow brings a new day and a new wish.
MADE FOR PLAYING TOGETHER
Everything is tapping and dragging, with chiku showing the way. Grown ups can read along and play too. Food names and chiku's short lines are spoken aloud, and there is a how to play page just for you in the grown ups corner.
CALM BY DESIGN
No ads. Ever. No account, no email, no password. No streaks, no timers, no scores, no pressure. Your game stays on your phone. Purchases go through the app store. A calm mode stills every animation. Chiku never gives food, health, or safety advice. The recipes in the book are for a grown up to cook with you, and the knife, stove and hot steps are marked for grown ups.
THE KITCHEN PASS (optional)
The first stalls and foods are free. The kitchen pass opens every stall and every new food as they come. Pay once and it is yours for good, or subscribe monthly or yearly. All of them open the same things. Buying always sits behind a grown up question.
IF YOU USED THE FRIDGE APP
If you used Chiku: Fridge Detective before, your fridge is still here, under grown ups.
