Credits to SpooferJahk for inspiring me to dig up my memory and find all this!
So, where do i start with this? Boy, if you think the HyperScan game was something, wait until you hear some of these! Ever since the first Ben 10 premiered in Turkey in 2008, it became a big hit with the kids, so as a result of that, Cartoon Network did a lot of merchandising and promotions for the show, Many of these were poorly made video games made by a development team called Proje Calide (Project Calide), and yes they're all official, they have a website (http://www.projecalide.com) and it mentions a partnership with Cartoon Network, but their games have really no quality control at all, and i believe they're not just obscure but also lost, They also have a YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/ProjeCalide) and it actually has the commercials and such for their games! Which is likely the only proof of existence of these games, I will bring attention to these specific trailers and commercials, and gonna talk about each game i can, Keep in mind, i never played any of them, i'm basing all this on my memory and the stuff i can find about them online
Ben 10 Game Set (Sabah Newspaper Promotion) =
()
I think this is the first work of Ben 10 i've ever seen from them, Based on the original series, These games were given away with the Sabah newspaper (a well known newspaper in Turkey) for only 29 coupons, and well, this commercial actually reveals a lot, such as these games' names, none of them are online tho, I don't know much about them, i never got these either, Let me translate these titles for you:
Mandarx'in Kurtuluşu = Mandarx's Survival
Mandarlar'ın İhaneti = Mandars' Betrayal
Kayıp Gezegen = Lost Planet
Nebula Takibi = Nebula Chase
(I was a huge fan of the original series, and i'm afraid these things called Mandarx or Mandars never appeared or have been mentioned in the series, not sure about the other incarnations tho)
Ben 10: Meteor Saldırısı (Ben 10: Meteor Attack) =
()
()
It seems they tried their hand at Augmented Reality games too, it's an old crappy webcam game, they even made an amateur how to play video and everything! Well, it was a promotion with Nesquik, i believe those had cards and you had to collect them in order to play them, Not much i can say
Unknown KFC Promotion Ben 10: Alien Force Games =
()
Judging from this commercial, and actually having seen it on TV back in the day, there was this promotion they had with KFC, according to the commercial, you got a code after ordering one of the seen KFC menus in the commercial, you use that password on a probably now non-existent web page and you get to play one of the three games, what are those games? no clue, he only mentions "three games" in commercial, it's never said or shown what they are, and i don't believe they would give the american Ben 10 AF games away for a freaking KFC menu, so they gotta be games from ground up, sadly, i don't think most people even got to play them, even if somebody did play them, they were probably too young to even care that much or heck be able to remember after a specific amount of time
Ben 10 Büyük Çarpışma: İstanbul (Ben 10 Big Clash (or Crash): Istanbul) =
()
I believe this is one of their later works and possibly the last Ben 10 work they did, seems to be based on Ben 10: Ultimate Alien (further proven by the fact that it mentions a deal with Bandai's Ben 10 UA figures at the end), Basically they put Ben in a Turkey setting with no plot or explanation what-so-ever, everything looks really bad, would you believe this is made post-2010? From the little gameplay we've seen, it seems that only Ultimate Swampfire was playable at the time of this was made, i don't know if any more aliens were playable in the final version, and according to a comment on this video and my memory, This game used to be Cartoon Network's Turkey website but it's no longer avaliable, I never played it so i don't know much about it, i do remember very little of the loading screens tho, nothing visual, i might've attempted at playing but gave up later, possibly a false memory
I also apologize for any spelling errors, It's my first post here and i'm glad to be making a contrubtion (i hope!)
Thank you for reading this and i'll try to cover more obscure turkish media related to well-known properties, if i come across any that is
