3. Privacy Policy
Your privacy is fundamental to our design philosophy. Please review our Privacy Policy, which is expressly incorporated into these Terms of Service. It explains how technical telemetry and customer support correspondence are processed.
4. Account Registration & Local Save Data
Most Stillpeak Games titles do not require mandatory registration and operate via local device storage or optional cloud syncing through Google Play Games or Apple Game Center. You are responsible for safeguarding your personal device. Stillpeak Games is not liable for loss of local save data resulting from device resets, clearing cache, or operating system upgrades.
5. Permitted Use & Prohibited Activities
Stillpeak Games grants you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license to run and play our Games solely for personal, non-commercial entertainment. You expressly agree that you will not:
- Decompile, reverse-engineer, disassemble, or attempt to extract source code or procedural algorithms from our software;
- Use automated bots, cheats, memory injectors, macro scripts, or emulators designed to bypass gameplay mechanics, timing limits, or ad delivery systems;
- Modify, intercept, or tamper with transaction receipts or in-app purchase tokens;
- Sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or distribute game software or virtual goods for real-world currency; or
- Engage in abusive, defamatory, or fraudulent communications with our player support staff.
6. Linking
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive right to create hyperlinks to our official Sites for journalistic, review, or informational purposes, provided such links do not portray Stillpeak Games or its products in a defamatory or misleading manner.
7. Termination
We reserve the right, without prior notice or liability, to suspend, terminate, or revoke your access to our Games and virtual services if you violate any provision of these Terms or engage in verified cheating, fraud, or abuse. You may terminate your relationship with Stillpeak Games at any time simply by uninstalling our Games.
8. Premium Features & Virtual Items
Our Games may offer virtual currency (e.g., Zen Coins), hints, reveals, cosmetic marker skins, biome color themes, or "Remove All Ads" passes ("Virtual Items").
A. Limited License Only: Virtual Items are licensed to you on a limited, revocable basis. They possess zero monetary value in real currency and do not constitute personal property.
B. No Cash Refunds: Virtual Items cannot be redeemed for real money. All purchases are final and non-refundable, except as expressly provided by the official refund policies of the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
C. Billing Authority: All in-app purchase transactions are processed directly by Apple StoreKit or Google Play In-App Billing under their respective terms and conditions.
9. Intellectual Property Rights
All trademarks, service marks, logos, visual layouts, procedural puzzle generation algorithms, game engine code, artwork, character designs, UI themes, animations, audio compositions, sound effects, and digital assets appearing within our Games and Sites (the "Content") are the exclusive intellectual property of Stillpeak Games and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws.
10. Content Submitted by You
If you submit feedback, game design ideas, feature suggestions, or player reviews to Stillpeak Games (via email or form), you grant us an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to utilize, modify, and incorporate such feedback into our Games without compensation or obligation to you.
11. Third-Party App Stores (Apple & Google Play)
You acknowledge that these Terms are concluded between you and Stillpeak Games only, and not with Apple Inc. or Google LLC. The following platform requirements apply:
- Maintenance: Stillpeak Games is solely responsible for providing maintenance and support services for our Games. Apple and Google have no obligation whatsoever to furnish maintenance or support.
- Warranty & Refunds: In the event of any failure to conform to any applicable warranty on iOS, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever.
- Third-Party Beneficiaries: Apple and Google, and their subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Upon your acceptance, Apple and Google will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
12. Third-Party Sites & Advertising
Our Games may display advertisements served by Google AdMob or link to external storefronts. We do not endorse or control third-party content, promotions, or external links, and Stillpeak Games is not responsible for any transactions you enter into with third-party advertisers.
13. Warranty Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, STILLPEAK GAMES PROVIDES ALL GAMES, SOFTWARE, AND SERVICES ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
IN NO EVENT SHALL STILLPEAK GAMES, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES. IN ALL CASES, STILLPEAK GAMES' TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO STILLPEAK GAMES IN THE PRECEDING SIX (6) MONTHS, OR (B) FIFTY UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($50.00 USD).
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Stillpeak Games, its officers, directors, contractors, and partners against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your breach of these Terms, unauthorized use of our Games, or infringement of any third-party intellectual property right.
15. Dispute Resolution, Mandatory Arbitration & Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MANDATES BINDING ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES AND ELIMINATES THE ABILITY TO BRING CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS.
Informal Resolution: Before initiating arbitration, you agree to contact Stillpeak Games at publishing@stillpeakgames.com to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days.
Binding Arbitration: Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Games that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding confidential arbitration administered in accordance with commercial arbitration rules, rather than in a court of law.
Class Action Waiver: YOU AND STILLPEAK GAMES AGREE THAT DISPUTES SHALL BE RESOLVED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
16. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy
Stillpeak Games respects the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe in good faith that any content hosted on our Services infringes your copyright, please deliver a formal written notice to our designated Copyright Agent containing the information mandated by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to:
Stillpeak Games • DMCA Copyright Agent

Subject: DMCA Notice of Infringement
17. General Legal Provisions & Contact
These Terms constitute the entire legal agreement between you and Stillpeak Games. If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful or unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remainder shall remain in full force and effect.
