Black Anvil FZCO – End User License Agreement (EULA)

Introduction

This End User License Agreement (“EULA” or “Agreement”) is a legal agreement between Black Anvil FZCO (“Licensor”, “Company” or “we”) and you, the end user (“Licensee” or “you”), governing your use of the Game software and any related updates or accompanying documentation (collectively, the “Game” or “Software”). 

By installing, copying, or otherwise using the Game, you agree to the terms of this EULA. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Game. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Game is legal in your country of residence.

We may update or modify this EULA from time to time to address new features or legal requirements. If we do, we will notify you by posting the updated EULA on our website or through the Game. Your continued use of the Game after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the modified terms.

Accounts and Eligibility

Account Creation: To access certain features, you may need to create an account. You agree to provide truthful information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity on your account. Black Anvil FZCO is not liable for any losses arising from unauthorized access to your account (for example, if someone else uses your account), so keep your login details confidential and notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

Age Requirements: The Game is intended for users who are at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required by your country’s laws for online game use, if higher). If you are under 18 (or under the age of majority in your jurisdiction), you should only use the Game under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. By using the Game, you represent that you are either (i) at least the age of majority, or (ii) if you are a minor, that your parent/guardian has reviewed and agreed to these terms. Parents and guardians are responsible for monitoring their child’s use of the Game, including any in-game transactions. (Please refer to device settings or app store parental controls to restrict in-app purchases by minors as needed.)

Personal Data: Our separate Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. Please review the Privacy Policy (available on our website) to understand what data we collect and how we use it. By using the Game, you acknowledge that you have read and agreed to the Privacy Policy.

Health Warning and Safety Precautions

A small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to certain light patterns, flashing lights, or imagery that may appear in video games. This may occur even in individuals with no prior history of epilepsy or seizures. If you, or anyone in your family, have an epileptic condition or have had seizures of any kind, consult your doctor before playing.

IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE use and consult a doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms while playing: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, any involuntary movement, or convulsions.

As standard health and safety precautions, always play in a well-lit room, do not play when you are drowsy or tired, take a 15-minute break for every hour of play, and maintain a safe distance from the screen. You are responsible for managing your health and your use of the Game.

Grant of License

License Grant: Subject to your compliance with this EULA, Black Anvil FZCO grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install, and use one copy of the Game on a compatible mobile device (e.g., smartphone or tablet) that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial entertainment purposes. This license is provided to you for the duration of this EULA and is not a sale of the Software or any portion of it. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by the Company.

Authorized Device and Account: You may use the Game only on authorized platforms and devices. For example, if you downloaded the Game from the Google Play Store, you may use it on Android devices; if from the Apple App Store, on iOS devices. You may also be required to have a valid user account (with us or with the platform) to access the Game. The license is tied to your account—you are not allowed to share the Game software with others except as permitted by the platform’s sharing features (e.g., family sharing as allowed by Apple/Google).

License Restrictions and User Conduct

By accepting this EULA, you agree not to do any of the following, or assist or permit any others to do so:

No Copying or Distribution: You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, or publish any part of the Game, except as expressly allowed by this EULA or applicable law. You may make one copy of the Software for backup or archival purposes, but any other copying (including sharing or uploading the Software or any of its files to any third-party site) is prohibited.

No Modification or Derivative Works: You shall not modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the Game. This means you cannot alter the Game’s code or content, or create new content using the Game’s assets, without explicit permission. (Customizing settings within the options provided by the Game is of course allowed, but you cannot hack or alter the Game’s files.)

No Reverse Engineering: You shall not reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Game, except to the extent that this restriction is expressly prohibited by law. If you are in a jurisdiction that permits limited reverse engineering (for interoperability or security research, for instance), you must first request the necessary information from us (if available) before engaging in such acts.

No Unbundling or Extraction: You shall not separate any component of the Game for use on other devices, nor extract any images, music, or other content from the Game for any purpose other than playing the Game as authorized. All such content is part of the Game and licensed for use only within the context of the Game.

Non-Commercial Use Only: You may use the Game only for your personal enjoyment. You agree not to use the Game for any commercial purpose, such as (but not limited to) running commercial tournaments, cyber cafes charging fees specifically for Game access, or offering in-game power-leveling services in exchange for money. Any commercial use of the Game requires a separate license from the Company.

No Cheating, Hacking or Circumvention: You shall not use the Game in conjunction with any cheating, automation, bot, hack, mod, scripts or any unauthorized third-party software designed to modify the Game experience. You shall not bypass or attempt to bypass any security or technical measures (such as encryption or access controls) implemented in the Game, nor exploit bugs or glitches to gain an unfair advantage. If the Game is only meant to be played online, you agree not to attempt to play it in offline mode or on unauthorized servers.

No Malicious or Harmful Activities: You shall not use the Game in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair our services (such as by exploiting bugs or generating excessive traffic). Do not attempt to disrupt or overburden the Game’s servers; this includes DDoS attacks, spamming of network requests, or any other activities that could harm the Game’s infrastructure. Also, do not upload any malicious code, viruses, or harmful software through the Game.

Account and Device Security: You are responsible for maintaining the security of the devices on which the Game is installed and for any accounts associated with the Game. Do not jailbreak, root, or otherwise use compromised devices to run the Game, as this may pose security risks and violate this EULA. We may choose not to support the Game on such devices for security reasons.

No License Transfer: You may not rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the Game, except that if you sell your device you may remove the game and the buyer may install a fresh copy if they have their own license from the app store. The license granted to you is personal and you may not transfer it to any other person.

No Unauthorized Accounts or Account Sharing: Unless specifically allowed by the Game’s rules, do not create or use multiple accounts to gain unfair advantages (such as farming rewards). Also, do not share your account with others in a way that violates the rules (for instance, allowing a high-level player to log into your account to boost your progress may be considered unfair).

No Account Trading or Unauthorized Transactions: You may not sell, rent, gift, or transfer your account or access credentials to another person. Any attempt to buy or sell Game accounts, Virtual Items, or other content through third-party marketplaces for real money is strictly forbidden. This includes so-called “real-money trading.” The Company does not recognize any such transactions, and accounts involved in them may be banned.

No Harassment or Illegal Behavior: While the Game itself does not contain text chat or user-generated content features, we expect players to refrain from any harassing, threatening, or abusive behavior in any interactions related to the Game. Do not engage in harassment, hate speech, or any form of illegal conduct towards others. If you communicate with other players (for example, via usernames, guild names, or external community forums), you must treat others with respect. Impersonating any other person or our staff, or falsely claiming an affiliation with the Company, is prohibited.

No Privacy Violations: You shall not attempt to collect or harvest personal information of other users. Respect other players’ privacy. For example, do not attempt to obtain another player’s login credentials or personal data.

No Unlawful or Unethical Conduct: You agree not to engage in any activity that violates any applicable law or regulation in connection with your use of the Game. This includes, for example, money laundering, gambling using the Game (the Game’s items have no real money value, so using them for bets outside the game is not allowed), or any activity that would otherwise create liability or harm for the Company or other players. Use common sense and play fair.

The above list of prohibitions is not exhaustive. The Company reserves the right to determine what conduct is considered a violation of the spirit of the Game or this Agreement. If you are unsure whether something is allowed, err on the side of caution or contact our support for clarification. Always play the game fairly and as intended by its design.

Any attempt to do any of the above is a breach of this EULA and may result in immediate termination of your rights under this EULA, as well as potential legal action. We take cheating and unauthorized use seriously to protect our rights and the integrity of the Game.

User Nicknames

Our Game allows you to create your own nickname, which may be visible to other users. By using our Game, you acknowledge and agree that you may encounter nicknames that you find inappropriate or offensive. We make efforts to moderate nicknames, but we cannot guarantee that any inappropriate nicknames will be promptly removed or hidden. If you encounter a nickname that violates these rules, please notify us via email at [Support@blackanvilstudio.com].

The following types of nicknames are prohibited:

Promoting hatred based on race, nationality, religion or gender;

Containing obscene, rude, abusive, or offensive language or abbreviations;

Directly or indirectly referring to sexual acts or violence;

Referring to the body, its biological functions, or developmental features;

Containing third-party intellectual property without the consent of the rights holder;

Creating the impression that you are a representative of the Company;

Containing direct or indirect promotion of drugs or alcohol;

Referring to actions prohibited by this EULA, other Company policies, or applicable law.

Consequences of Violation

Upon receiving a notification or otherwise discovering the use of an inappropriate nickname that violates these rules, we may, in our sole discretion and without further consultation with you, warn you and request a change of the nickname, suspend and/or terminate your account.

Any nicknames that violate this EULA must be changed. In such cases, the Company may change the nickname unilaterally. Repeated violations may result in your account being blocked. The Company also reserves the right to change a player’s nickname unilaterally if the player has been inactive in the Game for an extended period.

Ownership and Intellectual Property

The Game is Owned by the Company: You acknowledge that Black Anvil FZCO (or its licensors) owns all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in and to the Game, including but not limited to any titles, computer code, themes, characters, artwork, animations, sounds, musical compositions, audio-visual effects, storylines, and documentation. The Game is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws and treaties. The Game is licensed, not sold, to you. This EULA does not grant you any ownership interest in the Game, nor any rights to any trademark or service mark of the Company.

Your Content: Since the Game does not allow user-generated content uploads, this EULA does not have a broad user content license clause. However, if you provide any feedback, suggestions, or ideas regarding the Game to us, you agree that we can use and incorporate those ideas without any compensation or obligation to you. Any such feedback you provide is given voluntarily, and we are free to use it as we see fit.

Characters, Virtual Items, and Data: Any and all game characters, accounts, Virtual Items, virtual currency, achievements, or progress in the Game are part of the Game and owned by the Company. You do not own any virtual in-game items or currency – they are digital assets that form part of the Software and are licensed to you under this EULA. Even if you “earn” or “buy” such items, they remain the property of the Company. You have no proprietary interest in any account or stored data associated with the Game. The Company may manage, regulate, modify or eliminate Virtual Items or currency at its sole discretion, and we shall have no liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights.

No Rights to Intellectual Property: You cannot claim any copyright or other intellectual property rights in any aspect of the Game. For example, if you have a high-level character or a collection of items, you have no separate ownership of those – they are aspects of the Game’s software. You are not allowed to use any content from the Game outside the scope of the Game (such as using images or music from the Game in your own projects) without our explicit permission. If you do stream or post videos of gameplay, you are generally allowed to do so for non-commercial purposes (like on YouTube or Twitch) under fair use/fan content policies, but the Company reserves the right to require takedown of any video or content that uses Game assets inappropriately.

Virtual Items, Purchases and Gacha Mechanics

The Game is free to play, however, we may enable you to acquire Virtual Items or virtual currency (collectively, “Virtual Items”). These purchases are never required to participate in the Game, and any purchase of Virtual Items is voluntary and at your discretion. All purchases are processed through the platform or app store (e.g., Apple App Store or Google Play) from which you downloaded the Game. This means payments are handled by the app store provider under its terms. The store’s terms for billing, refunds, and payment disputes will apply in addition to our terms. 

License to Virtual Items: When you purchase or earn Virtual Items in the Game, you receive a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to use those Virtual Items within the Game, according to this Agreement and any applicable game rules. Virtual Items have no cash value and are not your personal property – they are digital content licensed to you by the Company as part of the Game experience. You may not sell, trade, transfer, or redeem Virtual Items for “real” money or anything of monetary value outside the Game. Any balance of virtual currency shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead measures the extent of your license.

No Transfers Outside Game: You agree not to trade, sell, or transfer Virtual Items except through the Game and as expressly permitted by the Company. Any purported transfer of Virtual Items outside of the Game (for “real” money or otherwise) is void and is a violation of this EULA.

No Refunds: All purchases of Virtual Items (including in-game currency and goods) are final and non-refundable, except where expressly required by law. This means that once you buy an in-game item or currency, you will not be able to obtain a refund or exchange it for real money or other compensation, except at our sole discretion or if laws in your jurisdiction mandate a refund. Please spend carefully and within your budget. (If you believe exceptional circumstances apply, you may contact our support, but we offer refunds only as required by applicable law or under extraordinary cases at our discretion.)

Changes to Virtual Items: You understand that the Company may change the functionality or availability of any Virtual Item at any time. For example, we may adjust the attributes of a weapon for balancing, or discontinue a certain cosmetic item. These changes are part of the evolving nature of the Game, and your license to that item does not guarantee it will always remain exactly as when you obtained it.

In-Game Currency and Expiration: The Game may include its own virtual currency (for example, gems, coins, etc.). This currency can be purchased with real money (via the app store) or earned through gameplay. Virtual currency can be used to obtain other Virtual Items or content in the Game. Virtual currency does not expire within the Game during the Game’s operation, but the Company reserves the right to reduce or reset virtual currency balances as part of gameplay balancing, bug correction, or if required for legal compliance. We will notify you in advance if any virtual currency is scheduled to be discontinued or altered. If the Game is ever discontinued or reset, you understand that your unused Virtual Items or currency may be lost (see also Termination below). We will not be liable to you for the loss of any Virtual Items due to the discontinuation of the Game or related services.

Battle Pass: The Game may offer a Battle Pass, which allows you to obtain additional Virtual Items for completing tasks during a time-limited “season.” A Battle Pass may be offered in both free and paid (premium) versions. Progress and any rewards not earned by the end of the season are reset and do not carry over. Purchasing the premium version unlocks the opportunity to earn rewards, but does not guarantee their receipt, which depends on the player's actions. All rewards obtained through a Battle Pass are governed by this EULA.

Gacha Mechanics (Random Rewards)

The Game may feature “gacha” mechanics, loot boxes, or other systems that provide randomized virtual rewards. For example, you might spend in-game currency (or perform certain tasks) to receive a random in-game item or character. By using these gacha features, you acknowledge and agree that the outcome is determined by chance, and you are not guaranteed to receive any particular item on any given attempt. The probabilities of obtaining different items may be provided in-game or on our official website when required by applicable law or platform policies. We strive to make these systems fair and fun: any such probabilities (drop rates) are determined by the Company and are the same for all players except as explicitly disclosed (for instance, some promotional events might have increased odds for certain items, which will be explained in the event details).

You accept that luck and chance are part of the Game’s design when using loot boxes or gacha. You may receive duplicate items or items you do not want, and you generally will not receive compensation for unwanted outcomes. If you do receive duplicate virtual items, the Game may attempt to compensate you in some manner (for example, converting duplicates into another resource), but this is not guaranteed unless explicitly stated. Please exercise discretion when participating in gacha mechanics, especially if they involve real-money purchases of in-game currency. If you feel that random reward systems encourage you to spend beyond your means, we advise setting limits or refraining from using those features. The Company supports responsible gameplay and spending.

(Note: The Game does not offer any gambling for real money or prizes; all gacha rewards are virtual items for use in the Game only.)

Advertisements and Third-Party Services

Third-Party Ads: The Game may display third-party advertisements from advertising networks or partners. These advertisements help support our free-to-play model. You may see ads in various forms (e.g. banner ads, interstitial full-screen ads, video ads) during gameplay. We do not endorse or guarantee any third-party products or services advertised in the Game. Any interactions or transactions you have with advertisers (for example, if you tap an ad and are taken to a third-party website or app) are solely between you and that third party. The Company is not responsible for the content of the ads or any third-party websites or services they lead to, and we will not be liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as a result of your dealings with advertisers.

Ad Removal Options: We understand that ads can be intrusive, so we may offer options to reduce or remove ads. In particular, if you make a qualified in-app purchase in the Game, you may experience a reduction or removal of third-party advertising. For example, some free-to-play games (such as Sonic Dash by SEGA) allow players to eliminate third-party ads simply by purchasing any item in-game. In our Game, we reserve the right to enable an “ad-free” mode or remove ads for players who support the game through purchases. The specifics (such as whether any purchase removes ads permanently, or whether a specific “Remove Ads” purchase is offered) will be explained in the Game or the app store description. If you prefer not to see ads, you can choose to make a purchase (when such an option is available) to support the developers and enjoy an ad-free experience. Keep in mind that even in ad-free mode, we may still promote our own Game content or related Black Anvil FZCO products, but you will not see third-party commercial ads.

Advertising Data: For advertising purposes, the Game or our advertising partners may utilize certain data (such as device identifiers or ad identifiers) to show you relevant ads. Please see our Privacy Policy for details on how we and our partners use cookies or similar technologies for ads. You can usually opt-out of targeted advertising via your device settings (e.g., “Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS or “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android). Some third-party ads may also include an info icon ⓘ or options that allow you to manage your ad preferences.

External Services and Links: The Game may incorporate or provide access to third-party services such as social media sharing, external community links, or other players’ profile links. For example, we might provide a link to an official community forum or Discord server. These services are not under our control, and each may have its own terms and privacy policies. Using those services is optional. We are not responsible for any content or practices of third-party services, and you use them at your own risk. If you link the Game to your social media account or share content externally, please do so in a respectful manner and follow the rules of those platforms.

External Communities and User Interactions

While the Game itself does not allow you to create or share content in-game (beyond gameplay progress), we recognize that players may interact or form communities on external platforms (such as official forums, social media pages, Discord servers, etc.). Any content you post or interactions you have in those external communities are not part of the Game itself and are governed by the terms and policies of those third-party platforms, not this Agreement. The Company does not assume responsibility for user-generated content or conduct on unofficial fan communities or platforms we do not control.

However, if the Company operates official community channels (for example, an official forum or Discord moderated by us), we may provide additional community guidelines for those platforms. You are expected to follow those guidelines in addition to this Agreement. We also reserve the right (but do not assume an obligation) to take action against your in-game account if you engage in egregious misconduct in official community channels. For instance, if you threaten or severely harass other players in an official forum moderated by us, we might suspend or ban your in-game account as a result.

Always remember: Be respectful and civil in any Black Anvil FZCO community. If you have a dispute with another player outside the game, we encourage you to resolve it respectfully on that platform. The Company will not arbitrate disputes between players outside of the Game environment. In fact, if you have a dispute with any third party (including other players) related to the Game or community interactions, you agree to release Black Anvil FZCO (and its officers, employees, and affiliates) from any claims or damages arising from such disputes. In other words, by playing the Game, you agree that the Company is not liable for any issues arising between you and other players – play and interact at your own risk, and be kind to one another.

Updates and Changes to the Game

The Game is an evolving product. We may (and likely will) release patches, updates, or changes from time to time to improve the Game, add new features, balance gameplay, or fix bugs. You consent to the automatic downloading and installation of updates on your device, and agree that this Agreement will apply to those updates as well, unless the update is accompanied by a new set of terms. We may also change or remove features of the Game. For example, we may add or remove certain game modes, items, or functionalities, and you acknowledge that the attributes or abilities of Virtual Items may be modified as part of the Game’s ongoing balancing and evolution. We may also reset certain game progress (such as leaderboards or seasonal ranks) as part of the Game’s design.

The Company also reserves the right to modify or discontinue (temporarily or permanently) the Game, or any part or feature of it, with or without notice. This includes the right to cease operation of the multiplayer servers or to require players to download the latest version for continued access. You agree that the Company shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Game or any part of it. Such modifications may affect the perceived value or functionality of your Virtual Items, and you agree that such changes are not grounds for a refund or any other claim against the Company. While we understand that changes can be inconvenient, our aim is to keep the Game enjoyable and compliant with any technical or legal requirements. If you are ever dissatisfied with changes to the Game or this Agreement, your sole remedy is to stop using the Game.

Beta Testing and Pre-Release Versions

From time to time, we may offer you access to a pre-release version of the Game or its features, including beta tests or short-term demonstration access (collectively, a “Beta Test”). Your participation in a Beta Test is free, personal, voluntary, and subject to the following terms in addition to the rest of this EULA. Sharing your access or right to access a Beta Test with any third party is strictly forbidden.

Purpose and Nature of Testing: You acknowledge that the purpose of any Beta Test is to test and evaluate new features, identify errors, and improve the Game's functionality. Test versions are provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis without any warranty of any kind, express or implied. Beta Tests may contain bugs, errors, and other defects that may cause data loss or damage to your device. The features and content in a Beta Test are not final and are subject to change.

Confidentiality for Closed Tests: If a Beta Test is designated as “closed” or “confidential,” all information obtained during the test is strictly confidential. You agree to not disclose, broadcast, stream, post, or otherwise share any non-public information related to the Beta Test with anyone. This includes, but is not limited to, sharing screenshots, screen recordings, information about bugs, game features, gameplay, and plot details. This confidentiality obligation remains valid indefinitely or for the longest period permitted by applicable law. You acknowledge that a breach of this confidentiality obligation could cause irreparable harm to the Company, and the Company is entitled to seek full compensation for any damage incurred as a result of such a violation.

Game Progress and Data Wipes: You acknowledge and agree that any and all progress, achievements, characters, stats, and Virtual Items you accumulate in a Beta Test are temporary and for testing purposes only. We reserve the right to reset or wipe all player data at any time during a Beta Test and upon its conclusion. You will not be entitled to any refund or compensation for any lost progress or Virtual Items.

Feedback: By participating in a Beta Test, you agree that any feedback, comments, ideas, or other information you provide to us shall become the sole and exclusive property of Black Anvil FZCO. You agree that we may use such feedback for any purpose without any restriction, compensation, or obligation to you.

Termination of Test: We reserve the right to end a Beta Test or terminate your access to it at any time in our sole discretion.

Term and Termination of EULA

Term: This EULA starts when you first install or use the Game and will continue until terminated by you or by the Company, or until the Company ceases providing the Game.

Your Termination: You may stop using the Game and terminate your account and this EULA at any time. You may do so by permanently uninstalling and deleting the Game from all your devices. If you wish to delete your account, you can contact our support or use any available in-app account deletion function (if provided). Please note that deleting the app will not automatically cancel any ongoing subscriptions you might have through the app store – you must manage those through the app store settings. Upon your account deletion or cessation of use, this Agreement will terminate, except for provisions that by their nature should survive.

Termination by Company: Black Anvil FZCO reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account or access to the Game at any time, for any reason or no reason, at our sole discretion, with or without notice to you. The Company may terminate this EULA (and your license to the Game) immediately without notice if you violate any terms of this EULA. This includes (but is not limited to) situations where: (a) you violate this Agreement or any game rules, (b) we suspect cheating, fraud, or other prohibited activities on your account, (c) we suspect unauthorized or unlawful activities, or (d) we decide to discontinue the Game or a particular service. We also may suspend your account if it has been inactive for an extended period (we will attempt to notify you in such cases before deletion). Upon termination for any reason, you must cease all use of the Game and destroy all copies in your possession.

If your account is terminated or suspended due to a violation of the rules or law, you will lose access to the Game, including any Virtual Items, currency, or progress associated with your account, without any compensation or refund. The Company has no obligation to reimburse or refund you for any virtual goods, currency, or any other data lost due to account suspension or termination. For example, if we ban your account because you were cheating or breaking the rules, you will not be reimbursed for any unused virtual currency or items on that account. These penalties are necessary to maintain a fair environment for all players.

All decisions made by Black Anvil FZCO regarding the suspension or termination of an account are made in our sole discretion. While you may contact our support team to appeal a decision, the Company is under no obligation to consider, review, or overturn any such decision. The process for and outcome of any appeal are at the sole discretion of the Company. Furthermore, the Company is not required to provide you with the specific data, evidence, or reasoning used to identify the violation. Our decisions in these matters are final.

Effect of Termination: Upon termination of this EULA, the license granted to you will immediately end, and you will no longer be permitted to use the Game. You will lose access to any accounts, characters, Virtual Items, currency, or progress associated with your account, without any compensation or refund. Sections of this EULA that by their nature should survive termination (such as Ownership, Warranty Disclaimer, Limitation of Liability, and Dispute Resolution terms) will continue to apply even after termination.

Reinstatement: If the EULA was terminated due to your breach, the Company is not required to reinstate your license or account, even if you rectify the breach. Bypassing a ban (for instance, creating a new account when your old account was banned) is a further violation of this EULA. Any decision to allow you back in the Game will be at our sole discretion.

Game Shutdown: Similarly, if the Company decides to permanently discontinue the Game (shut down all servers and support), we may terminate all user accounts as part of the process. We will provide advance notice (e.g., via the Game’s website or in-app announcements) if we plan to shut down the Game. Once the Game is shut down, you will no longer have access to the Game or any Virtual Items, and no refunds will be provided except where required by law or at our discretion (for example, we might refund unused premium currency for a recently purchased large bundle if required). The Company will not be liable for the discontinuation of the Game.

Disclaimer of Warranty

No Warranty: You expressly acknowledge and agree that use of the Game is at your sole risk and that the entire risk arising out of using the Game remains with you. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Game and all related services are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” with all faults and without warranty of any kind. Black Anvil FZCO disclaims all warranties and conditions, either express, implied, or statutory, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of quality, performance, availability, merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement of third-party rights.

No Performance Guarantee: We do not warrant that the Game will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Game will be free of viruses or other harmful components. Installation and use are at your own discretion and risk. You assume all responsibility for any damage to your device or loss of data that results from such use.

For example, we do not warrant that: (a) the Game will function on your device or be compatible with every hardware/software environment (you are responsible for having a compatible device and internet connection); (b) the Game will always be available or that any defects will be corrected; (c) the information or content in the Game will be accurate or reliable; or (d) the Game will meet your expectations. No oral or written information or advice given by us (or our representatives) creates a warranty.

No Warranty on Content: The Company does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information within the Game (for example, in-game descriptions or stats). Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk.

Jurisdictional Note: Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. If any warranty cannot be disclaimed under law, then we limit such warranty to the minimum duration and scope allowed. In such cases, if a warranty is legally required, it will be limited in duration to 30 days from the date you first use the Game, unless a shorter period is allowed by law. We do not limit any rights you have under such laws, but we do not provide any additional contractual warranty. 

(Note: You may have certain rights under your local jurisdiction that are not affected by this disclaimer. This disclaimer is not intended to deprive you of any protections you are entitled to under law.)

In summary, we do not promise that the Game will work perfectly or that you will not encounter any issues. If the Game is not working to your satisfaction, your only remedy is to stop using it or to seek support from us – but no additional warranty is provided.

(If you downloaded the Game from the Apple App Store, please note the special warranty disclaimer and remedies provided in the “Additional Terms for Platform Providers” below.)

Limitation of Liability

Limitation of Liability: To the fullest extent permitted by law, Black Anvil FZCO and its affiliates, licensors, and service providers, and each of their respective officers, directors, and employees, shall not be liable for any damages that are not foreseeable or that are indirect. This includes no liability for incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages whatsoever arising out of or related to your use of or inability to use the Game (including, but not limited to, loss of revenue, profits, business, data, or data breach, or computer failure or malfunction), even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. We are also not liable for any interruption of business or for any third-party claims (for example, someone else’s claim against you) arising from use of the Game.

In jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, we will be liable to you only for the direct damages up to the amount you paid for the Game (if any) or as required by law. If you paid nothing for the Game, our total liability to you for any claim is zero.

Specific Situations: Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s liability is not extended to any problems beyond our control. This includes issues caused by (a) misuse of the Game or use contrary to this EULA, (b) bugs or errors that are present in the Game (we aim to fix them but they might occur), (c) downtime of servers or inability to access the Game, (d) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data, (e) the acts or content of other players or third parties, or (f) any other matter relating to the Game.

No Liability for Loss of Virtual Items: The Company is not liable for any loss of virtual currency or virtual goods you might experience, except where such loss is caused by our willful misconduct. For example, if a bug in the Game causes you to lose a virtual item you purchased, we may choose to compensate you in-game, but we are not legally required to provide monetary damages. Similarly, if your account is terminated for violating the rules, you lose any associated Virtual Items with no liability on our part.

Your Legal Rights: Nothing in this EULA is intended to limit any legal rights you may have as a consumer under your local law that cannot be waived. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If you live in such a jurisdiction, some of the above limitations may not apply to you. We do not seek to exclude liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any injury caused by our fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. In those cases, our liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Black Anvil FZCO, its partners, affiliates, contractors, and each of their respective officers, directors, and employees from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your breach of this EULA or misuse of the Game. This means you will reimburse us for any cost or damage that results from your violation of the EULA (for example, if you circumvent our security and it causes us harm, or if someone sues us because of your actions in the Game). We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate in such defense.

Additional Terms for Platform Providers

If you downloaded or accessed the Game through a third-party platform or digital store (including but not limited to Apple App Store, Google Play, or other platforms), the following additional terms apply:

Acknowledgment: You acknowledge that this EULA is concluded between you and Black Anvil FZCO only, not with any platform provider or distributor, and that Black Anvil FZCO, not the platform providers, is solely responsible for the Game and its content. However, platform providers (including Apple Inc. and Google LLC) and their subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this EULA and may enforce this EULA against you as such.

Scope of License: The license granted to you is limited to a personal, non-transferable license to use the Game on devices that you own or control and as permitted by the usage rules or terms of service of the relevant platform.

Maintenance and Support: Black Anvil FZCO is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the Game. Platform providers have no obligation whatsoever to furnish such services.

Warranty: In the event of any failure of the Game to conform to any applicable warranty (if explicitly provided), the responsibility for such warranty rests with Black Anvil FZCO, subject to applicable law. Platform providers shall have no warranty obligations with respect to the Game, except where a refund or other remedy is mandated under the applicable platform’s policies.

Product Claims: Black Anvil FZCO, not the platform providers, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the Game or your possession and/or use of the Game, including but not limited to: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the Game fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.

Intellectual Property Claims: In the event of any third-party claim that the Game or your possession and use thereof infringes intellectual property rights, Black Anvil FZCO (not the platform owners) will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.

Legal Compliance: You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country that is subject to embargoes or restrictions under the laws of the United States, the United Arab Emirates, or other applicable jurisdictions, and that you are not listed on any government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

Developer Name and Address: Should you have any questions, complaints or claims with respect to the Game, you may contact us at the email or address provided in the “Contact Information” section of this EULA.

Third-Party Terms: You must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Game (e.g., your wireless data service agreement). Your use of the Game must not violate any terms of your agreement with the third-party platform or store from which you obtained the Game, or your device provider.

By downloading or using the Game from any platform, you are acknowledging that you have read, understood, and agreed to the above terms, and that you are authorized to bind yourself to these terms. Specifically, if you downloaded the Game from the Apple App Store, you further agree that Apple shall have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this EULA against you as a third-party beneficiary.

Governing Law

Governing Law: This Agreement, and any disputes arising from or relating to it or the Game, shall be governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates as applied in the Emirate of Dubai (including applicable regulations of the Dubai Free Zone where the Company is registered), without regard to conflict of law principles. We choose UAE law because our Company is based in a Dubai Free Zone, and we wish to have a consistent legal framework. If you are accessing the Game from outside the UAE, be aware that you are still responsible for complying with local laws, but this Agreement will be interpreted under UAE law.

Jurisdiction: You agree that any dispute or claim arising out of this Agreement or the Game will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Dubai, UAE. However, we reserve the right to seek injunctive or equitable relief in any jurisdiction. If you are a consumer residing outside of the UAE, you may also have the right to bring a claim in your country’s courts under certain mandatory consumer protection laws – this section does not override any rights you have under mandatory local laws.

Dispute Resolution Process: Before filing a formal lawsuit, we strongly encourage you to contact our customer support to discuss and hopefully resolve the issue informally. Often, we can address concerns or misunderstandings without legal proceedings. If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, and unless prohibited by law, you and the Company agree to attempt mediation or another form of alternative dispute resolution in good faith. (This is not mandatory but is a suggestion to save time and cost.)

No Class Actions: To the extent permitted by law, you and Black Anvil FZCO agree that any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute will be conducted solely on an individual basis, and not in a class or representative action. You further agree that you will not participate in any class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against us. (If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable or unlawful, the rest of this Governing Law and Dispute Resolution section shall remain in force.)

Changes to this EULA

The Company reserves the right to modify this EULA at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by posting the updated EULA on our website or through the Game, or by other reasonable means. You should review this EULA periodically for changes. If you continue to use the Game after the EULA has been updated, you are affirming your agreement to the revised terms. If you do not agree to a new term or condition, you must cease using the Game and terminate this EULA.

For changes required by platform providers or by law (for example, if Apple or Google updates their policies and we need to reflect that, or a new law requires certain terms), we may not be able to give lengthy notice. We appreciate your understanding that these terms may evolve over time.

Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement: This EULA, along with the Privacy Policy and any additional rules or terms incorporated herein, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Black Anvil FZCO regarding the Game. It supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings regarding the same.

Severability: If any provision of this EULA is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, that provision will be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if that’s not possible, it will be severed, and the remainder of this EULA will remain valid and enforceable.

No Waiver: The failure of the Company to enforce any right or provision of this EULA will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Company.

Assignment: We may assign our rights and obligations under this EULA (for example, if the Game is sold to another company or in a corporate reorganization). You may not assign or transfer this EULA or any rights herein without our prior written consent. Any attempt to do so without consent will be null and void.

Export Laws: The Game may be subject to international export controls. You agree to abide by all export and re-export restrictions and regulations that apply to the Game. This means you shall not download or otherwise export or re-export the Game to any country or person prohibited by export control laws, including to any countries embargoed by the UAE, U.S., or European Union, or to anyone on any denied parties list. By using the Game, you represent that you are not located in, under control of, or a national or resident of any such prohibited country or on any such list.

Contact Information: If you have any questions about this EULA or need to contact us for any reason, please email us at Support@blackanvilstudio.com or write to: Black Anvil FZCO, IFZA Properties, DSO-IFZA, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. We appreciate your feedback and will do our best to address your inquiry.

Thank you for reading the EULA. We hope you have a great time with our Game. Happy gaming!
