Terms of Use

Effective Date: October 28, 2026  ·  Last Updated: October 28, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your use of Plot Twist, including your account, gameplay, rewards, Game Center, and optional subscriptions. Please read them carefully.

1.Agreement to These Terms

Plot Twist is operated by Charles Boswell, a sole proprietor based in Texas (“we,” “us,” or the “Developer”). Plot Twist is a MiClikz project.

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) form a legally binding agreement between you and the Developer and govern your access to and use of the Plot Twist mobile application and its related features, content, and services, including your account, gameplay, rewards, Game Center features, and optional subscriptions.

BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, ACCESSING, OR USING THE APP, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT DOWNLOAD, ACCESS, OR USE THE APP.

These Terms serve as the end user license agreement for the App. Where these Terms do not address a matter, the Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the “Standard EULA”) applies to your use of the App obtained through the App Store. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under applicable law that cannot be waived or limited by contract.

2.Definitions

In these Terms, the following capitalized terms have the meanings set out below:

  • “App” means the Plot Twist mobile application, including all updates, content, and features made available through it.
  • “Apple” means Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries.
  • “App Store” means the digital distribution platform operated by Apple through which the App is made available.
  • “Account” means the Plot Twist game account created or accessed through Sign in with Apple.
  • “Content” means all mystery cases, stories, text, artwork, graphics, audio, characters, branding, software, and other materials made available in or through the App.
  • “Game Center” means Apple’s Game Center service, including its leaderboards.
  • “Plot Twist Plus” or “Subscription” means the optional auto-renewing subscription offered through the App Store that enables additional features in the App.
  • “Services” means the App together with the related backend, account, and support services the Developer provides.
  • “Sparks” means the in-game reward items made available in the App.
  • “you” or “your” means the individual who downloads, accesses, or uses the App.

3.Eligibility and Age Requirements

You may use the App only if you meet the minimum age shown for the App on the App Store in your country or region and are able to form a binding contract under applicable law. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use of the App.

By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

4.Your Account

You may create or access an Account using Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Apple Account and your device, and for all activity that occurs through your Account.

You agree to provide accurate profile information, including any display name you choose, and to keep it current. Display names must not be unlawful, offensive, infringing, or impersonating. You must notify us promptly at hi@miclikz.com if you believe your Account has been accessed or used without your permission.

Game Center is a separate service provided by Apple and may require separate enrollment or device settings. Game Center is not used as the sign-in method for your Account.

5.Gameplay, Content, and Sparks

The App provides mystery cases, gameplay progress, daily check-ins, and in-game Sparks rewards.

Sparks have no monetary or cash value. Sparks are a limited license to use a digital game feature within the App and are not your property. Sparks cannot be redeemed for money or any other item of monetary value, and may not be transferred, traded, sold, or exchanged, whether inside or outside the App. Any attempt to do so is void.

Subject to applicable law, we may adjust, remove, rebalance, or discontinue Content, game features, or rewards, including Sparks, at any time. Except where required by law, you are not entitled to a refund or other compensation for any Sparks, progress, or Content that is changed, removed, or lost.

6.Plot Twist Plus Subscriptions

Plot Twist Plus is an optional, auto-renewing subscription purchased through Apple’s App Store. Before you confirm a purchase, Apple displays the subscription period, price, renewal terms, and the features included. Prices may vary by country or region and are as displayed by Apple at checkout; no particular subscription price is promised.

  • Payment. Payment is charged to your Apple Account upon confirmation of purchase.
  • Automatic renewal. Your Subscription automatically renews for the same period unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple Account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
  • Managing and canceling. You can manage or cancel your Subscription at any time in your Apple Account subscription settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period.
  • Refunds. All billing and refunds are handled by Apple under Apple’s policies and applicable law. The Developer does not process payments and cannot issue refunds directly.
  • Payment details. The Developer does not receive your full payment card details.

Subscription prices, features, and benefits may change. If we change the price of an existing Subscription, existing subscribers will be notified, and their consent obtained where required, as Apple requires.

7.Game Center and Leaderboards

Game Center leaderboards are provided by Apple and are subject to Apple’s terms and policies. The App submits supported case-solving scores to its Game Center leaderboard.

You must not cheat, manipulate scores, exploit bugs or errors, use unauthorized software, or otherwise interfere with other players or the integrity of any leaderboard. We may remove scores or restrict leaderboard participation that we reasonably believe were obtained in violation of these Terms.

8.Fair Play and Acceptable Use

You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You must not:

  • disrupt, damage, overload, or interfere with the App, the Services, or their underlying systems or providers;
  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction;
  • access or use another person’s Account, or share, sell, or otherwise misuse any Account;
  • cheat, exploit bugs, automate gameplay, or manipulate scores, rewards, or leaderboards;
  • harass, impersonate, or interfere with other players; or
  • use the App in violation of any applicable law or third-party right.

9.Intellectual Property and License

The App and all Content, including stories, cases, artwork, branding, and software, are owned by or licensed to the Developer and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Developer grants you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use the App for your personal, non-commercial entertainment, on Apple-branded products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms of Service, except that the App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing where available.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, publicly display, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit the App or any Content, except as expressly permitted by these Terms or applicable law.

10.Privacy

Our collection and use of information in connection with the App is described in the Plot Twist Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

11.Changes to the App and Services

We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue the App, the Services, or any part of them, including features, Content, and rewards, at any time, with or without notice, to the extent permitted by law. We are not liable to you or any third party for any such change, suspension, or discontinuation, except as required by law.

12.Suspension and Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the App or your Account, in whole or in part, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, for abuse, fraud, or security reasons, or where required by law. You may stop using the App and request deletion of your Account at any time by contacting hi@miclikz.com.

Termination does not cancel an App Store Subscription; you must cancel any Subscription through your Apple Account settings. Upon termination, the license granted to you ends, and any Sparks and progress associated with your Account may be forfeited. Sections that by their nature should survive termination, including Sections 9, 13 through 19, and 21, will survive.

THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT YOUR PROGRESS, SPARKS, OR OTHER DATA WILL BE PRESERVED.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS ANY RIGHT OR WARRANTY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

14.Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, PROGRESS, VIRTUAL ITEMS, GOODWILL, OR USE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF THE DEVELOPER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEVELOPER’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID FOR PLOT TWIST PLUS IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50).
