What ColorCollect is
ColorCollect (colorcollectapp.com) is a free color scavenger hunt photo game for Android and iOS. You pick a color, or take the color of the day that every player shares, then find and photograph real-world things that match it. The photos snap into one montage you can save and share. Play solo, fully offline and with no account, or start a live group hunt that friends join with a 6-letter code. There are no ads and no countdown clocks.
It is a calm game by design: no countdown clock and no feed to scroll. A hunt is a reason to look closely at an ordinary street, and the montage is what you keep. It is available on Google Play and the App Store.
ColorCollect is a game, not a color-picker tool. It is not related to the similarly named color-picker and palette apps.
