Terms of Use
By downloading or playing the games you agree to these terms. They work together with Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the “Apple EULA”), which applies to every app from the App Store. How we handle data is explained in the Privacy Policy.
1. Your licence to play
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the games for your own non-commercial entertainment on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by the Apple EULA and the App Store’s usage rules. The games, their art, music, code and names remain ours or our licensors’. You may not copy, sell, rent, decompile or redistribute them, except where the law expressly allows it.
2. Virtual currencies and items
The games contain virtual currencies and items, for example gold, Golden Fish, gems, crystals, souls, shards, upgrades, cosmetics and chests. They:
- are part of the game licence and have no real-world monetary value;
- cannot be exchanged for real money, goods or services, and cannot be sold, transferred or traded between players or accounts;
- are stored in your save on your device and in your iCloud. If you delete the game and its iCloud data, or lose access to your Apple Account, they cannot be restored by us;
- may be rebalanced in updates (for example prices or rewards inside the game), but we will not take away items you paid for with real money, except after a refund or where they were obtained by cheating.
Fish Chests in Whisker Survivors give a random reward; the odds are shown in the game before you open one.
3. Purchases
- Whisker Survivors offers optional in-app purchases (Golden Fish packs, a starter pack and an Ad-free pass). Everything sold can also be earned by playing, except the Ad-free pass and the starter pack’s cosmetic. Idle Crypt and Hill Fort Defense currently have no in-app purchases.
- All purchases are sold and processed by Apple through the App Store, under Apple’s terms. Prices are shown in the game as provided by Apple and include taxes where applicable.
- Golden Fish are consumed when spent. The Ad-free pass and starter pack can be restored with “Restore purchases” on the same Apple Account.
- Refunds: purchases are non-refundable, except as required by law or granted by Apple. Refund requests go to Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com; we cannot issue refunds ourselves. If Apple refunds a purchase, the game removes what was bought (as far as it has not been used).
- Nothing in these terms limits your statutory consumer rights, including rights for faulty digital content.
4. Ads
The games can show optional rewarded ads from Google AdMob when you choose to watch one for an in-game reward. The ads are provided by Google and advertisers; we do not choose individual ads. If you see an ad that seems inappropriate, please tell us and we will try to block it. If no ad is available, the reward cannot be given that time.
5. Fair play
Please play fair. You may not:
- use cheats, hacks, bots, modified versions of the games or tools that edit save files or game memory;
- exploit bugs to gain items or scores, or manipulate leaderboards and achievements;
- manipulate the device clock to collect time-based rewards, or interfere with ads (for example fake ad views or clicks);
- use the games in any unlawful way.
The games check saves and scores for tampering. A save that fails these checks may be ignored, impossible results are not sent to Game Center, and we may ask Apple to remove scores obtained by cheating. Please report bugs to us instead of exploiting them.
6. Availability and changes
We work hard to keep the games running, but they are provided “as is” and “as available”. We may update, change or remove features, and some features rely on Apple and Google services (iCloud, Game Center, App Store, AdMob) that we do not control. We may stop offering a game in the future; if we do, we will give reasonable notice where possible, and anything you bought stays usable in the installed game as far as technically possible.
7. Liability
We are fully liable for damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and wherever liability cannot be limited under applicable law, including mandatory EU and national consumer law.
Otherwise, to the extent allowed by law, we are not liable for indirect or unforeseeable damage, loss of progress or virtual items, or problems caused by your device, your network, or third-party services, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the game in question in the 12 months before the claim.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Lithuania. If you are a consumer living in another country, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country, and you may bring a claim in the courts where you live.
9. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms, for example when the games gain new features. The current version is always on this page with its effective date. If a change matters to you, you are free to stop playing; continuing to play after the effective date means you accept the new terms.
