Terms of Service
Effective: October 13, 2026 · Previous version (July 16, 2026, Ghost Paws version)
These terms apply to your use of the mobile game Rumble Alley (“the game”) provided by PUNGPUNGSTUDI (“the developer”). On first launch the game asks you to accept these terms and the Privacy Policy, and you can play after accepting. While you use the earlier Ghost Paws version of the same app, the previous version applies. The app store's terms also apply.
1. The game and eligibility
The game is a deck-building RPG in which you pick cards to fight the alley's ghosts, with online features such as accounts, progress backups and rankings. The game is for players aged 14 and older. If the law where you live requires a higher age or a guardian's consent, you must meet that too.
2. Accounts
On first launch you choose Google sign-in, Apple sign-in (iPhone) or a guest start; either way a game account is created. A guest can link a Google account (and Apple on iPhone) in Settings. Without a link, a guest account is hard to restore on another device. You are responsible for keeping your device and account safe, and you may not sell, transfer or lend your account. The cat you choose first cannot be changed.
3. License and rights
As long as you follow these terms, the developer grants you a limited, non-transferable right to install and use the game for personal, non-commercial purposes. The game, its code, art, characters, names and other content belong to the developer or their rightful owners.
4. Prohibited conduct
- Copying, selling, renting, redistributing or commercially exploiting the game or its content without permission
- Modifying the game or using unofficial programs, macros, save editing or exploits to interfere with progress, currency, rankings, ad rewards or payments
- Trading accounts, currency or items for money or anything else of value
- Anything that breaks the law or infringes others' rights
5. Virtual currency and items
Fish, gems, cards, companions, relics, keys, costumes, dyes, weapon skins and other in-game items are virtual content used only in the game. They have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money or moved out of the game, and you receive a license to use them rather than ownership. Paid gems are held by the game server and only results confirmed by the server count; free gems are spent first. The card draw, companion summon, relic draw and Gear Chest are random items, and their contents and rates are shown in the game and on the Drop rates page. The developer may adjust rewards, difficulty, unlock conditions and content for fun, stability, fairness or operational needs, without harming your rights in completed paid transactions.
6. Advertising
The game offers rewarded ads that you choose to watch. Rewards are given only when the ad is watched to the end and its completion is confirmed, and ad availability depends on the network, consent status, region and ad inventory. The reward and daily limit are shown before you watch.
7. In-app purchases and refunds
- The game sells gems. Prices are shown on the purchase screen and in the app store, and Google Play or the Apple App Store processes payment, taxes and refunds.
- Players in Korea may withdraw (refund) unused paid gems within 7 days of purchase. Withdrawal may be limited for products partly used and for benefits received with them (such as the extra gems of a first purchase); this limit is shown on the in-game gem screen before purchase. Other withdrawal rights guaranteed by law are not limited.
- For players outside Korea, the app store's refund policy applies.
- If a minor made a purchase without a legal guardian's consent, the minor or the guardian may cancel it, subject to the exceptions set by law (such as spending the guardian allowed).
- Gems and benefits delivered for a refunded or cancelled product may be taken back. If a paid product was not delivered, do not buy it again; contact us instead. How to request is explained on the Support page.
8. Saved data
Progress is saved on the device first and backed up to the game server. If the server and the device differ, you choose which to keep; currency is never added together. Data may be lost through network problems, device failure, uninstalling or unofficial modification, and while the developer tries to help recover it, recovery cannot be guaranteed in every case.
9. Changes to and suspension of the service
The developer may update the game for bug fixes, security, compatibility, balance or content. Where unavoidable, some features or the service may be changed or suspended, with notice in advance where possible.
10. Restrictions and termination
You can delete your account at any time under Settings → Account → Delete account; requesting without the app is explained on Account and data deletion requests. Deleted progress cannot be restored. If you break these terms, the developer may, after checking the facts, warn you, exclude you from rankings or restrict your account depending on the severity; objections can be sent to the email below.
11. Limitation of liability
The game is provided as is. To the extent permitted by law, the developer is not liable for damage caused by natural disasters, network failures, your own fault, or failures of third-party services (app stores, ads, sign-in providers). This does not apply to damage caused by the developer's intent or gross negligence, or to liability that cannot be excluded by law.
12. Changes to these terms
When these terms change, we announce the effective date and the changes and reasons on this page and in the game 7 days before they apply (30 days for changes unfavorable to you), and ask for consent again at game start for important changes.
13. Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Questions and disputes go to pungpungstudi@hello-support.com, and your rights and remedies under applicable law are preserved.
