  • reverse engineer, decompile or modify the game, except where the law expressly allows it;
  • use the Service to send spam, malware or misleading content; or
  • impersonate HQM Apps, our team or another player.

Cheating & automation

Fair play matters, especially in Friend Challenges and online competition. You must not use bots, scripts, macros, modified clients, emulators intended to gain an advantage, exploits or any other unauthorised tools; manipulate scores, results, ratings or the game economy; or deliberately lose, collude or share accounts to manipulate rankings. If you find a bug or exploit, please report it to us rather than using it.

Abusive behaviour

Treat other players with respect. Harassment, threats, hate speech, sexual content, bullying, and offensive or misleading names are not allowed. You can report players who break these rules; see Reporting another player.

Game economy

PuzzleRush may include in-game currency, items and rewards. These are a limited licence to use features within the game. They have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged for real money and cannot be sold or transferred outside the game. We may adjust balances or remove items obtained through bugs, exploits or cheating, and we may change the economy to keep the game balanced.

Online competition

Friend Challenges and, once released, Quick Match and Ranked depend on network conditions and other players. Results, ratings and leaderboards are calculated by our systems and may be corrected if we detect errors or cheating. Online competition in PuzzleRush is for entertainment only and offers no real-world prizes.
