Terms of Use

Terms of Use

Last updated: August 2026

This is an English translation provided for convenience. The German version (AGB) is the legally binding text.

1. Scope and provider

These Terms of Use govern the use of the games, applications and online services (together the “Services”) provided by Andre Potgeter – Three Oaks Studio, Am Ems-Vechte-Kanal 48, 48531 Nordhorn, Germany (“we”, “us”), as well as the use of this website.

Where you obtain our games through a platform such as the Apple App Store or Google Play, the terms of that platform apply in addition. In the event of a conflict between the platform’s mandatory terms and these Terms, the platform’s terms prevail for the relationship between you and that platform.

2. Eligibility

Our Services are intended for persons aged 16 and over. If you are not yet of full legal age, you may only use the Services with the consent of your parent or legal guardian.

3. Conclusion of contract and right of use

A contract for the use of a Service is concluded when you download or start the respective game or create a user account. Our games are generally free to download and play; certain content and functions are available for a charge (see section 5).

We grant you a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to use the Services for private, non-commercial purposes on the devices you own or control, for the duration of the contract. All rights in the Services — in particular software, graphics, sound, text and trademarks — remain with us or our licensors.

4. User account

Some functions (for example cloud saves) require a user account. You are responsible for keeping your access credentials confidential and for all activity carried out through your account. Please inform us without delay if you suspect unauthorised use.

All user accounts created for our games remain ours. We grant you solely a personal, non-transferable right to use the account for the duration of the contract. You do not acquire ownership or any other transferable right in the account, in saved games, in game progress or in virtual items.

Selling, trading, renting, gifting or otherwise passing on user accounts is prohibited — in whole or in part, whether for payment or free of charge. The same applies to access credentials, saved games and virtual items, as well as to offering, advertising or brokering such offers. Using another person’s account is likewise prohibited. In the event of a breach we are entitled to block or delete the account concerned; there is no claim to a refund of content already purchased in such a case.

You may delete your account at any time. Deletion also removes the associated game data; purchased content is lost as a result and cannot be restored.

5. Paid content, subscriptions and virtual items

Purchases and subscriptions are processed exclusively through the respective platform (Apple App Store, Google Play). The contract for the purchase and the payment processing are subject to that platform’s terms; the platform is your contractual partner for the payment transaction. Prices shown include statutory value added tax.

Subscriptions renew automatically for the stated period unless cancelled before the end of the current term. You manage and cancel subscriptions in the account settings of the respective platform.

Virtual currency and virtual items grant you only a right of use within the respective game for the duration of the contract. They are not a claim to payment, have no monetary value outside the game, and cannot be exchanged for money, transferred or traded.

6. Right of withdrawal for consumers

As a consumer you have a statutory right of withdrawal for the purchase of digital content. This right expires prematurely once we have begun performance of the contract, provided you have expressly consented to us beginning before the end of the withdrawal period and have acknowledged that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal (§ 356(5) of the German Civil Code, BGB). Withdrawal and refunds relating to purchases made through a platform are handled in accordance with that platform’s procedures.

7. Rules of conduct

When using the Services you agree not to:

  • use cheats, bots — expressly including click bots, auto-clickers and macros — any other form of automation, or modified clients, or otherwise manipulate the course of the game. In particular, any software or hardware that automates, repeats or simulates input, or keeps the game running unattended, is prohibited;
  • exploit errors or security vulnerabilities to gain an advantage instead of reporting them to us;
  • share, sell or trade accounts, or use another person’s account;
  • publish unlawful, insulting, discriminatory or infringing content, or harass other players;
  • impair the operation of our servers, or read out, decompile or reverse engineer the Services beyond what is permitted by law.

8. Availability and changes to the Services

We endeavour to keep the Services available as continuously as possible, but do not owe uninterrupted availability. Maintenance work, technical faults or circumstances beyond our control may lead to temporary restrictions.

We may further develop, change or discontinue the Services, in particular to adapt them to technical developments, to add or remove features, or for economic reasons. Where a discontinuation is material to you, we will announce it with reasonable notice within the game or by email. Statutory rights relating to paid content remain unaffected.

9. Term and termination

The contract runs for an indefinite period. You may terminate it at any time by deleting your account and uninstalling the game. We may terminate the contract with reasonable notice; the right to terminate for good cause remains unaffected. Good cause includes in particular serious or repeated breaches of section 7, in which case we may also block affected accounts.

10. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act. In cases of slight negligence we are liable only for breach of a material contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfilment makes proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on which you may regularly rely), and in such cases only for the foreseeable damage typical of this type of contract. Any further liability is excluded.

11. Changes to these Terms

We may amend these Terms where this is necessary for valid reasons — for example due to changes in the law, case law, or the features of the Services — and the amendment does not disadvantage you unreasonably. We will notify you of any amendment in text form at least 30 days before it takes effect. If you do not object within that period, the amendment is deemed accepted; we will draw your attention to this consequence in the notification. You may terminate the contract at any time instead of objecting.

12. Applicable law and dispute resolution

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer with habitual residence in another EU member state, the mandatory consumer protection provisions of that state remain unaffected.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.
