Terms of use

1. Who these Terms are with

These Terms apply to gakigames.com, OVER!, PRESS!, their browser, iOS and Android versions, and related Gaki Games services.

Gaki Games is a trading name of Tech Alchemy Limited, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 10443169. Our registered office is 86–90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE, United Kingdom. Our VAT registration number is GB292233507. Contact support@gakigames.com or write to our registered office, addressed to Gaki Games Support.

Please read these Terms before using our services. Where a game asks you to accept them, acceptance forms the agreement for that service. Our Privacy Policy explains personal-data handling. Accepting these Terms does not give consent to optional analytics, advertising technologies or marketing emails.

2. Age and availability

Our games are intended for people aged 13 and over. If you are below the age at which you can enter this agreement independently in your country, your parent or guardian must review and agree to these Terms for your use. You must also meet any local minimum age or platform requirements that apply.

Features, supported devices and availability can differ between games, countries and versions. A reference to a feature in these Terms does not mean it is available now or promise that it will be released. You are responsible for your device, internet connection and any charges from your network provider. Do not play while driving or where doing so would put anyone at risk.

3. Permission to play and use the website

We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable permission to use our website and games for your own lawful entertainment, subject to these Terms and applicable platform rules. You do not acquire ownership of our software, artwork, characters, music, branding or other intellectual property. Rights not granted here remain with us or the relevant rights holders.

You may share your own gameplay screenshots and videos, including in monetised gameplay or review content, provided you do not distribute game files, imply our endorsement, or use material you do not have permission to include. This permission does not authorise selling our artwork, characters or branding as standalone products. Contact us about other commercial uses.

4. Fair use and conduct

Use our services lawfully. Do not:

• interfere with security, attack services, introduce malicious software, or try to access information or systems without permission;
• cheat in online features, falsify leaderboard results, exploit a fault to obtain unauthorised benefits, or help others do so;
• impersonate another person, infringe another person's rights, or send unlawful, abusive or deliberately harmful material to our support or feedback channels;
• copy, resell, redistribute or create unauthorised versions of our game files or assets;
• reverse engineer or bypass technical protections except where applicable law gives you a right to do so.

Please report faults or suspected abuse to support@gakigames.com. These restrictions do not remove legal rights that cannot be restricted by contract.

5. Saves, progress and earned items

The launch versions save progress and preferences on your device. Clearing browser storage, deleting app data, changing devices or some updates can affect progress. Keep any device backups you want to use. We cannot recover information that is stored only on your device and is not available to us.

Coins, lives, unlocks and other virtual items earned in a game are permissions to use the relevant game feature. They have no cash value, are not a bank balance, and cannot be sold, transferred between players or redeemed for money unless we expressly provide an authorised feature or the law requires otherwise. They are not transferable between games unless we say so.

We may adjust balancing and progression for reasonable gameplay, security or technical reasons. We will not use this clause to remove statutory rights or avoid obligations relating to any paid content introduced later.

6. Optional rewarded ads

Where available, a game may offer an optional ad in exchange for a stated in-game reward. The offer identifies the reward and any limits before you choose it. The ad provider must confirm that the reward conditions were completed. Closing an ad early, losing connectivity, an unavailable ad or a provider error may prevent a reward from being granted. Contact support if you believe you completed an offer but did not receive its reward.

You can continue ordinary gameplay without choosing rewarded ads. Refusing optional personalised advertising does not prevent ordinary gameplay, although an ad-funded reward may be unavailable where an ad cannot lawfully or technically be supplied. Advertising consent is separate from the choice to share game statistics. See the Privacy Policy and the choices offered in the game.

Third-party ads and their destination websites are supplied by others. Report inappropriate ads to us. Nothing in these Terms removes any responsibility we have under applicable law for how advertising is offered through our services.

7. Accounts and online features, if introduced

Accounts, usernames, online leaderboards and cloud saves are planned features. No account is required for the launch games. We will give the relevant feature information and privacy notice before accounts or other online features begin collecting personal information.

If you create an account when this becomes available, provide accurate information required for that account, keep login details secure and tell us promptly about suspected unauthorised access. Choose a lawful username that does not impersonate someone or infringe their rights. Do not share an account where that would compromise security or bypass eligibility restrictions. You are not automatically responsible for every unauthorised action merely because it involves your account; responsibility depends on the circumstances and applicable law.

Where public leaderboards are offered, the game will explain which username and gameplay information other players can see. We may remove fraudulent scores or unlawful usernames and explain the reason where appropriate. Cloud saves depend on the stated service and compatibility limits; they are not a guarantee against every loss of progress. Account-deletion controls and their effects will be explained when accounts are introduced.

Our games do not offer player chat or public uploads. These Terms do not grant us a general licence to publish material you send privately to support.

8. Purchases and subscriptions, if introduced

There are no paid items, paid virtual currency or subscriptions in our launch versions. This section applies only if we later make a paid feature available. We will show the actual product, price, applicable taxes, platform and any additional terms before purchase. Nothing here authorises charging you for a future feature without a purchase you approve.

If virtual currency or other digital items become available for purchase, they will be for use within the stated game and account or device limits. They will not be investments, transferable money or a right to cash out. Any restoration, expiry or compatibility limits must be disclosed before purchase. Paid content remains subject to applicable consumer rights.

If a subscription becomes available, the purchase screen must explain its benefits, billing period, renewal price, trial conditions and cancellation method. Auto-renewal applies only where clearly disclosed and accepted. Cancelling stops future renewals according to the applicable purchase terms; access normally continues until the end of the period already paid for. Any different treatment, including trial cancellation, must be explained before purchase and comply with applicable law. Price changes and material changes will receive the notice and any consent required by law and the relevant platform.

For purchases through Apple or Google Play, their payment and cancellation processes apply. You can request refunds through the relevant store and contact us for help. Any future browser checkout will identify the seller and payment provider and explain payment, cancellation and refund terms before payment. If purchases are available to someone under 18, they must have the permission and authority required from a parent or guardian.

We do not impose a blanket “no refunds” rule. Statutory remedies for faulty or misdescribed digital content remain available. Where a right to cancel digital content can lawfully be lost when immediate supply begins, we will obtain the express consent and acknowledgement required before supply. Accepting these general Terms alone does not waive that right.

9. Feedback and playtests

You keep ownership of material you send to us. You give us permission to use feedback and necessary diagnostic material to respond, investigate problems and improve our services. We do not need to credit or pay you for ordinary suggestions unless we agree otherwise. This permission does not authorise publishing your private correspondence or identifying you in marketing without a separate lawful basis and any required permission.

Playtest versions may be incomplete and can contain faults or lose progress. Any additional playtest conditions, including a confidentiality request, must be clearly provided before you agree to the test. No confidentiality obligation is created simply by this paragraph.

10. Updates, restrictions and service changes

We may release fixes and improvements, and some updates may be needed for security or compatibility. We may change or withdraw a feature for reasonable technical, legal, security or business reasons. Where a change materially affects an ongoing service, we will provide reasonable advance notice where practicable and any cancellation, refund or other remedy required by law.

We may restrict access to affected services where reasonably necessary to address a serious breach, unlawful activity, fraud or a security threat. The response should be proportionate. We will explain the reason and give an opportunity to resolve or challenge it where appropriate, unless doing so would be unlawful or compromise safety or security. Contact support@gakigames.com to challenge a restriction.

We do not promise that a free online feature will remain available forever. This does not let us keep payment for an ongoing paid service that we stop providing without the remedy required by law.

11. Responsibility and consumer rights

We aim to provide games and services with reasonable care and skill. Bugs and interruptions can occur; we do not guarantee that every service will always be uninterrupted or compatible with every device. Statements about test versions do not remove rights the law gives you.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. This includes applicable rights relating to digital content and services.

Where applicable consumer law makes us responsible for foreseeable loss caused by our breach, we remain responsible on that basis. We are not responsible for a loss that was not reasonably foreseeable, or a failure caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control except where the law provides otherwise. Our services are supplied for personal use; we do not accept responsibility for business losses from using them for commercial purposes, to the extent the law allows. We do not impose a zero-value liability cap merely because a game is free.

12. App stores and external services

If you obtain a game through Apple or Google Play, the relevant store's terms also apply. These Terms are between you and Tech Alchemy Limited; the store does not become the developer or operator of the game. Apple-distributed games are also subject to Apple's applicable standard end-user licence unless a valid custom licence is expressly supplied through the store. These Terms do not override mandatory platform provisions.

External websites and services have their own terms. We remain responsible for our own legal obligations when integrating a service or directing you to it.

13. Changes of operator and Terms

We may transfer our rights and obligations to another organisation as part of a genuine business transfer. We will inform you where required, ensure the transfer does not unlawfully reduce your rights, and explain any change to the organisation responsible for personal information. A transfer does not by itself give a new operator your consent to new marketing or other optional data use.

We may update these Terms for changes to our services, legal requirements or reasonable operational needs. We will date the revised version, provide appropriate notice of material changes and obtain fresh agreement where required. Changes do not retrospectively remove rights you already have. If you do not agree to a material change, you may stop using the affected service and retain any cancellation or refund rights the law gives you.

14. Governing law, disputes and contact

These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer elsewhere, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protections in your country of residence. The courts of England and Wales may hear disputes, but this does not prevent you from using courts in your home jurisdiction where the law gives you that right. There is no mandatory private arbitration requirement in these Terms.

If a provision cannot lawfully be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to apply where possible. A delay in enforcing a provision does not waive the right to enforce it later. No provision gives a third party a right to enforce these Terms unless mandatory law or an applicable platform agreement requires it.

For help, complaints or questions, email support@gakigames.com or write to Tech Alchemy Limited trading as Gaki Games, 86–90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE, United Kingdom. Please describe the issue and the game and version involved so we can respond.
