Particle Arcade

Terms of Use

Effective date: November 8, 2026
Last updated: November 8, 2026

Who we are

Particle Arcade, LLC makes small games, including Box Pop for iOS and Android. We are a company in Colorado, United States. In these terms, "we" and "us" mean Particle Arcade, LLC, and "you" means the person who plays our games or uses our website.

These terms cover our games (including Box Pop) and the website at particlearcade.com. We call them "the services" below. For questions, contact support@particlearcade.com.

Agreeing to these terms

When you download, install or play one of our games, or use our website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the services. You can stop at any time by uninstalling the game.

Age

Our games, including Box Pop, are for people 13 and older. If you are under 13, please do not use them. If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.

Your license to play

We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to install and play our games on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial fun. This license follows these terms and the rules of the app store you got the game from.

You may not copy, sell, rent, change, reverse engineer or redistribute the game, except where the law allows it even though these terms say no. We keep all rights we do not give you.

In-game items and rewarded ads

Some games let you earn in-game items or bonuses, such as hints, by playing or by choosing to watch an optional rewarded ad. These items are part of the game only. They have no money value, you cannot sell or trade them, and you cannot exchange them for cash. They stay on your device with your saved game and can be lost if you uninstall the game or lose your device data.

We can change, balance or remove in-game items and rewards when we update a game. Rewarded ads are optional. You choose whether to watch one.

Ads in our games

Ad-supported releases of our games show ads, such as banner ads and optional rewarded ads, delivered by Google AdMob. Advertisers are responsible for their own ads and for the products and websites they link to. If you leave the game through an ad, the other website or app has its own terms. The game privacy policy explains how ads work and the choices you have.

Acceptable use

Please play fair and be kind. You agree not to:

  • cheat, hack, or use bots, mods or tools that change how the game works
  • interfere with the game, our website, our ads or our servers, or try to get access you do not have
  • click ads you are not interested in, or try to earn rewards through fake ad views
  • send us feedback or messages that are illegal, abusive, misleading or that contain other people's personal information
  • use the services in a way that breaks the law

Our content and your feedback

The games, the website, and everything in them, such as code, art, sounds, names, logos and the Box Pop and Particle Arcade brands, belong to us or to our licensors. These terms do not give you any right to use our brands.

We like to hear from you. If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, you let us use them to improve our games without paying you or owing you anything. The game privacy policy explains how we handle the feedback you send.

App store terms

You get our games from the Apple App Store or Google Play. That store's own terms also apply to you. If a store term and these terms conflict, the store term wins for that store.

If you got a game from the Apple App Store, you and we also agree that:

  • These terms are between you and us only, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the game and its content.
  • Your license lets you use the game on Apple-branded products you own or control, as the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions allow. Family Sharing and other Apple features can also apply.
  • Apple has no duty to give maintenance or support for the game.
  • If the game does not meet a warranty that applies to it, you can tell Apple, and Apple will refund the price you paid for the game, if any. As far as the law allows, Apple has no other warranty duty for the game.
  • We, not Apple, handle any claims by you or others about the game, including product liability claims, claims that the game does not meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and consumer protection or privacy claims.
  • If someone claims that the game or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling and resolving that claim.
  • You confirm that you are not in a country under a U.S. Government embargo or one the U.S. Government calls a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • You must follow any third-party terms that apply when you use the game, such as your mobile network's terms.
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms. When you accept these terms, Apple can enforce them against you.

Privacy

Our game privacy policy explains what information our games use and the choices you have. Our website privacy notice covers this website and our launch-update emails.

No warranty

We work hard to make our games fun and reliable, but we provide the services "as is" and "as available". As far as the law allows, we make no promises that the services will always work, be free of errors, or keep your saved game or progress. We also disclaim implied warranties, such as merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

Some places do not allow these limits. If you live in one of them, some of these limits may not apply to you, and you keep the rights your local law gives you.

Limit of liability

As far as the law allows, we are not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost data, lost progress or lost profits, that come from your use of the services. Our total responsibility for any claim about the services is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the game, if any, or US $50.

Nothing in these terms limits responsibility that the law does not allow us to limit.

Ending access

You can stop using the services at any time by uninstalling the game and leaving the website. We can suspend or stop your access if you break these terms, or stop offering a game or feature, for example when a game reaches its end. If we stop your access, the license in these terms ends, and you must stop using and delete the game. The parts of these terms that by their nature should continue, such as ownership, no warranty and limit of liability, stay in effect.

Changes to these terms

When we change these terms, we will post the new version on this page and change the "Last updated" date. If a change is important, we will also try to tell you in the game or on this website. If you keep using the services after a change, you accept the new terms. This page stays at https://particlearcade.com/terms.

Governing law

The laws of the State of Colorado, United States, govern these terms, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. This does not take away consumer protections that the law where you live gives you.

Other points

If a court finds part of these terms cannot be enforced, the rest stays in effect. If we do not enforce a term right away, we do not give up our right to enforce it later. You may not transfer these terms to someone else; we may transfer them as part of a merger, sale or similar change. These terms, together with the documents they link to, are the full agreement between you and us about the services.
