Terms of Use

Tidemarch, for Android, iPhone and iPad · Effective 4 November 2026

1. Who we are and this agreement

These terms are an agreement between you and LVL Digital Ventures Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (number 17436151) whose registered office is at 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom. We make and run Tidemarch; "we" and "us" mean that company. By downloading or playing Tidemarch you accept these terms and our privacy policy. If you don't accept them, please don't play.

2. Who can play

Tidemarch is meant for players aged 13 and over. If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, please ask a parent or guardian before buying Remove ads.

3. Your licence to play

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to download Tidemarch and play it on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, under the rules of the store you got it from. The game, its islands, art, sound, name and logo belong to us or to the people who licensed them to us. You may not copy, sell, rent, modify, decompile or reverse engineer the game, except where the law allows it.

4. Ads

Tidemarch is free because it now and then shows one full-screen ad from Google AdMob between games, never during play. How often ads appear may change. What data ads use is explained in the privacy policy.

5. Remove ads

• What it does. Remove ads is a one-time purchase that turns off the ads between games, for good.
• Payment. It is bought through Google Play on Android or the App Store on iPhone and iPad. The store shows the price in your currency before you confirm, takes the payment and keeps your payment details. We never see them.
• Delivery. It takes effect as soon as the store confirms the payment. By buying, you ask for it to be supplied straight away, so the usual 14-day right to cancel a purchase of digital content ends once it has been delivered.
• Refunds. Refunds are handled by the store you paid through, under its own rules: on Android through Google Play's refund policy, on iPhone and iPad at reportaproblem.apple.com. If your purchase didn't work, write to us and we'll help.
• Restoring. The purchase comes back on any device signed in to the same Google account or Apple Account. On iPhone and iPad, Restore purchases asks the App Store again.

6. Crowns, scores and streaks

Crowns, best scores, days in a row and anything else you earn in the game exist to make playing more fun. They have no value outside the game and can't be exchanged for money or anything else. We may adjust how the game works, including islands, scoring and the daily island, to keep it fair and fun.

7. Your saved game

Tidemarch has no account. Your progress is saved on your device and, if you have turned it on, in your device's own backup to Google or iCloud. We don't hold a copy, so if you delete the game without a backup, we can't bring your progress back. Remove ads can still be restored from the store.

8. Playing fairly

Please don't cheat, hack, use bots or modified versions of the game, get around its ads or purchase, or interfere with the game or the services it uses.

9. Updates and availability

We update Tidemarch to fix problems and add things, and some updates may be needed to keep playing. We work to keep the game running well but can't promise it will always be available or free of errors. If we ever stop offering Tidemarch, we will give reasonable notice in the game or on this site where we can.

10. Our responsibility to you

If you live in the UK or the EU, you have legal rights about digital content that is faulty or not as described, and nothing in these terms affects them. Apart from those rights, the game is provided "as is", to the extent the law allows.

We are responsible for loss you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or failing to use reasonable care and skill. We are not responsible for loss that was not foreseeable, for business losses (the game is for personal use), or for problems caused by your device, its software or your internet connection. Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law does not allow us to limit.

11. Ending this agreement

You can stop playing and delete the game at any time. We may stop providing the game to you if you seriously break these terms. Sections 6, 10, 12, 13 and 14 continue after the agreement ends.

12. Apple App Store

If you got Tidemarch from Apple's App Store, these terms are between you and LVL Digital Ventures Ltd, not Apple, and we, not Apple, are responsible for the game and its content. Your licence is limited to Apple devices you own or control, as the App Store's Usage Rules allow. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the game. If the game fails to meet an applicable warranty, you may tell Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price; otherwise Apple has no warranty obligation for it. Apple is not responsible for any claims about the game, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, consumer protection, privacy or intellectual property claims; we handle those. You confirm you are not in a country subject to a US Government embargo and are not on a US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

13. Google Play

If you got Tidemarch from Google Play, Google Play's Terms of Service also apply to your download and purchase. Google is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the game.

14. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales can hear disputes. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring a claim in your local courts. If you live in the EU, you keep the protection of the consumer laws of your country and can bring a claim there.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the game or the law changes. We'll change the date at the top, and if the changes matter to you, we'll tell you in the game before they apply.

16. Contact

Questions, problems with a purchase or anything else: write to [email protected].
