Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the games, apps and websites published by Brelforge Studio (“we”, “us”), including Idle Crush and blackforge.art (together, the “Services”). By downloading, installing or playing our games, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

1. Licence to Play

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to install and play our games on a device you own or control, for your own private, non-commercial entertainment. We keep all rights not expressly granted to you here.

2. Virtual Items and In-Game Currency

Our games contain virtual items and currencies — for example Bolts, Hydraulic Cores, boosts, press heads and skins. You should understand clearly:

• Virtual items are licensed to you for use inside the game. You do not own them.
• They have no monetary value and cannot be exchanged for real money, goods or anything of value outside the game.
• They cannot be sold, gifted, traded or transferred to another person or account.
• They may be changed, rebalanced, or discontinued as the game is updated, and they end if your access to the game ends.

3. Purchases and Refunds

Purchases are processed by the platform you bought them on — the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store — and not by us directly. We never see or store your payment details.

• Refunds are handled under that platform's policy. Please contact Google or Apple support for a refund request.
• Nothing in these Terms removes any statutory right of withdrawal or refund you may have under the consumer law that applies to you.
• Prices and the contents of offers may change over time, and offers may be available only for a limited period or to some players.
• Consumable items are delivered as soon as your purchase is confirmed. Non-consumable items, such as Remove Ads, can be restored on a new device using the Restore Purchases button in the game's settings.

4. Advertising

Our games may show advertisements, including optional rewarded video ads that you choose to watch in exchange for an in-game reward. Ad availability depends on our ad partners and is not guaranteed. If an ad fails to load or fails to complete, the reward may not be granted. How advertising data is handled is described in our Privacy Policy.

5. Your Conduct

To keep the game fair and working for everyone, you agree not to:

• Modify, decompile, reverse-engineer or create derivative works from our games, except where that right cannot be excluded by law.
• Use cheats, automation, memory editors, modified clients or exploits to gain an unfair advantage or to obtain virtual items without paying for them.
• Interfere with, overload or attempt to gain unauthorised access to our servers or systems.
• Resell, sublicense or commercially exploit any part of the Services.

We may suspend or end access to the Services for accounts that break these rules.

6. Game Progress and Data

Your progress is stored on your device, and may be backed up if you use the backup features we provide. We cannot guarantee that progress will never be lost — for example through device loss or failure, uninstalling the game, or clearing app data — and we are not able to restore progress in every case. Deleting your data from within the game is permanent and cannot be undone.

7. Updates and Availability

We may update, change, rebalance or discontinue any part of the Services, including game content, store contents, prices and features, at any time. Some content is delivered from our servers and can change without a new app release. We may also stop supporting a game entirely; where we do, we will try to give reasonable notice.

8. Intellectual Property

The Services, including their code, artwork, audio, characters, names and logos, are owned by Brelforge Studio or our licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. Some third-party assets are used under their own licences, credited in the game's accompanying documentation.

9. Disclaimer

The Services are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranty that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Brelforge Studio will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for lost profits, lost data or lost virtual items, arising from your use of the Services. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

11. Children

Our games are intended for general audiences. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with the involvement of a parent or guardian, who accepts these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for any purchases made.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The “Last Updated” date above shows when they last changed. If you keep using the Services after a change, you accept the revised Terms.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Brelforge Studio is established, without regard to its conflict of law rules. This does not deprive you of the protection of any mandatory consumer law that applies where you live.
