## Description

Junkyard Keeper is a simulation-arcade game where you run a legendary junkyard. Drive your collecting truck, clean up vast lots of steel, food scraps, and more, then haul it back to base to recycle into cash. Hunt for hidden treasures and salvage parts to assemble faster, more capable vehicles.

Upgrade your fleet to increase capacity and speed, evolve your trucks to new levels, and unlock new junkyard locations and garbage types. Manage the yard, turn waste into treasure, and enjoy satisfying physics, excellent graphics, and relaxing gameplay as you expand from a modest yard to a recycling empire. As you progress, unlock new collectors like vacuum trucks, grinders, and even helicopters.

## Review summary

Users praise Junkyard Keeper for its entertaining core gameplay and appealing graphics, with a satisfying, repetitive loop that some players enjoy. However, the app suffers from an overwhelming ad experience—ads persist even for those who paid for no-ads—and a lack of timely updates, with promised new areas and vehicles still not released after long delays. Many reports cite progression and bug issues, including levels resetting, stuck tasks, empty containers, and sound settings not saving. Taken together, the game shows potential but needs steady updates and robust fixes to retain players.
