Terms of Use

1. This agreement

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and AI Apps Yazılım Hizmetleri ve Reklam Faaliyetleri Anonim Şirketi (“AI Apps & Games”, “we”, “us”), a company registered in Türkiye. They govern your download and use of the mobile game Killing Blow (the “Game”), including its leaderboards, its in-game shop, and any updates to it.

By downloading, installing or playing the Game, you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not install or play the Game, and delete it from your device.

Our Privacy Policy explains what data the Game handles and forms part of this agreement.

2. Who we are, and how to reach us

The Game is published by AI Apps Yazılım Hizmetleri ve Reklam Faaliyetleri Anonim Şirketi, registered in Türkiye. For questions, complaints or notices under these Terms, contact us at hello@aiapps.games, or use Settings → Contact us inside the Game. We aim to respond to every message, but we do not guarantee a response time unless the law requires one.

3. Apple’s role

You obtain the Game through Apple’s App Store. The following applies and prevails over anything inconsistent elsewhere in these Terms:

• These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the Game and its content.
• Your licence to use the Game is limited to a non-transferable licence to use it on any Apple-branded product that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
• Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the Game.
• If the Game fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the Game to you (if any). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Game.
• We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the Game, including product liability claims, any claim that the Game fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
• We, not Apple, are responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of any third-party claim that the Game infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights.
• You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• You must comply with any applicable third-party terms when using the Game.
• Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right to enforce them against you.

4. Age and eligibility

The Game is a dark fantasy game featuring stylised violence and gore. It is not directed to children.

You must be at least 13 years old to play. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another territory that sets a higher digital age of consent (up to 16), you must have reached that age. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may only play with the consent of a parent or guardian, who accepts these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use of the Game and for any purchases made on your device.

You must also have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement, and must not be barred from using the Game under the laws of your country.

5. Your licence to play

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non- sublicensable, revocable licence to install and play one copy of the Game on a device you own or control, for your own private, non-commercial entertainment.

That is all you get. We reserve every right not expressly granted here. The Game is licensed, not sold to you.

6. What you may not do

You must not, and must not attempt to, or help anyone else to:

• copy, modify, translate, adapt or create derivative works of the Game, except where this restriction is prohibited by law;
• reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Game, or otherwise try to derive its source code, except to the limited extent the law expressly allows despite this restriction;
• rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, distribute or commercially exploit the Game or access to it;
• cheat, exploit bugs, use bots, scripts, automation, emulators, modified clients, memory editors or any other tool to gain an advantage or to manipulate progress, gems, or leaderboards;
• submit false, forged, automated or otherwise illegitimate scores, victories or names to our servers, or interfere with, overload or probe our servers or those of our providers;
• remove, obscure or alter any proprietary notice, credit or attribution in the Game;
• use the Game to break any law, to infringe anyone’s rights, or in any way that could damage, disable or impair the Game or anyone else’s enjoyment of it.

Cheating is not a victimless act in a game with public leaderboards. We treat it as a material breach of these Terms.

7. Your Account ID and your progress

There is nothing to sign up for. When you first play, your device generates a random identifier (your Account ID) which we use to attach your leaderboard entries and analytics to a single player. You can view and copy it at Settings → Account ID. Quote it if you contact us about your data. The Game also signs itself in to our server anonymously in the background so that nobody else can post under your Account ID; that sign-in asks nothing of you and carries no credentials.

Three consequences follow from that design, and you should understand all three before you spend money:

• Your progress is stored on your device— we hold no copy of your save. It is kept in three places on your side (the Game’s own files, your device keychain, and your own iCloud) so that levels, gems, unlocks and purchases normally survive deleting and reinstalling the Game, and follow you to a new device signed in to the same Apple Account. That restore is a convenience we build for, not a guarantee we can give: it depends on Apple services and settings outside our control, and we cannot recover progress that fails to restore. Back-up behaviour may change as the Game changes.
• Purchases can be restored, progress cannot be re-issued. Use Restore purchases in the shop or on the Battle Pass screen to recover entitlements Apple has a record of. Consumables you have already spent — gems, and anything bought with them — cannot be re-granted.
• Your Account ID is not proof of identity, or a secret. It appears on public leaderboard rows, and anyone with it can claim to be you. We are not obliged to treat an Account ID alone as verification, and we may refuse a request where we cannot reasonably establish that it is yours.

You are responsible for the security of your device and for everything done through it in the Game.

8. Champion names and other content you create

You may choose a champion name. If you post a score, that name is displayed publicly on our leaderboards next to your result. Do not use a name you are not happy for the world — and for us — to see. Do not put personal information in it.

Your champion name, and anything else you submit, must not:

• contain slurs or hate speech, or attack anyone on the basis of race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability or any other protected characteristic;
• be sexually explicit, threatening, harassing or defamatory;
• impersonate any person, including our staff, moderators or the Game itself;
• infringe anyone’s intellectual property, privacy or other rights;
• contain another person’s personal information, or promote or advertise anything.

Fantasy menace — blood, death, demons, the undead — is what this game is made of and is welcome. The line is real-world hate, sexual content and abuse.

Screening is best-effort, not a guarantee. We screen champion names automatically when you enter them (see the Privacy Policy for how). That screening can be wrong in both directions, can be bypassed, and does not run when your device is offline. It does not make us the author or endorser of any name that reaches a leaderboard.

Licence to us. You keep whatever rights you have in what you submit. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable and irrevocable licence to host, store, reproduce, display, publish and otherwise use it for the purpose of operating, moderating and promoting the Game, for as long as we operate it. You confirm you have the right to grant that licence.

Moderation. We may, at our discretion and without notice, refuse, hide, alter, replace or remove any name or entry, and suspend a player, where we consider it breaches these Terms or is otherwise harmful. We are not obliged to monitor content, and we do not undertake to remove everything objectionable. To report a name or entry, email hello@aiapps.games with the details.

9. Leaderboards and fair play

Leaderboards are a cosmetic feature offered as-is. You should know exactly what they are:

• Results are reported by the player’s device and are not independently verified by us. We do not represent that any entry is genuine, accurate, or achieved fairly.
• A submitted entry is final. By design, entries cannot be edited or deleted from within the Game, by you or by any other player. Post carefully.
• We may at any time and without notice correct, remove, reset, restructure or discontinue any leaderboard or any entry on it, including as an anti-cheat measure. No compensation is payable if we do.
• Nothing of value — no gems, rewards, prizes or progression — depends on a leaderboard position, and none will be owed to you on the basis of one.

10. Gems and virtual items

The Game uses gems, a virtual currency, plus virtual items: champion, card and oath unlocks, skins, and cosmetics such as titles and backdrops. You can earn gems by playing or buy them in the shop. All of it — earned or bought — is subject to the following, which is the deal you accept when you spend:

• Gems and virtual items have no real-world value. They are not money, not currency, not credit, not a deposit, not a stored-value or payment instrument, and not property. They cannot be redeemed for cash or anything of monetary value from us or anyone else.
• You do not own them. What you buy is a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable licence to use them inside the Game, and nothing more.
• They are not transferable. You may not sell, trade, gift, or attempt to transfer gems, items, accounts or Account IDs to anyone, or acquire them from anyone other than us through the Game. Any such transfer is void and may result in termination.
• We may change the economy. We may add, remove, reprice, rebalance, expire or change any gem pack, item, unlock, price or earn rate at any time. Game balance is not a promise, and a change to it is not a defect.
• They can end. Your licence to gems and items ends when this agreement ends, when the Game is discontinued, or when we terminate your access under section 17. Unless the law says otherwise, you will not be compensated for unused gems or items in any of those cases.

The Battle Pass ladder

The Battle Pass ladder runs in monthly seasons. You climb it by playing, and you must claim a reward for it to reach your account.

• A season’s progress and unclaimed rewards do not carry over. When the month turns, ladder progress resets and anything you reached but did not claim is gone. Claim as you go.
• What you earned while subscribed stays yours. If your membership lapses, rewards you had already become eligible for remain claimable within that season; you simply stop becoming eligible for new premium rungs.
• We may change the ladder, its rewards, its rungs, the rate you climb it and the length of a season at any time (section 12).

11. Purchases, prices and refunds

The Game is free to download and offers optional in-app purchases.

Apple takes your payment, not us.Every purchase is made through the App Store and is governed by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions in addition to these Terms. We never receive or store your card details. Prices are set per territory, shown in the App Store before you confirm, and include or exclude tax per Apple’s rules for your territory.

What the shop sells

• Gem packs — one-time purchases that add gems to your balance immediately. Consumable: once spent, they are gone.
• Starter Pack — a one-time offer, available once per player.
• Battle Pass membership — an auto-renewing subscription. It unlocks the premium rewards on the current month’s ladder (section 10). Read the terms below before you take it.

The Battle Pass is a subscription that renews itself

• Tiers and billing. The membership is sold as a weekly tier and an annual tier. The price of each, in your currency, is shown on the Battle Pass screen and in the App Store before you confirm — that display is the price that governs, not any figure quoted elsewhere.
• It renews automatically. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation, and it renews at the same price for the same period, indefinitely, unless you cancel. Your Apple Account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends.
• How to cancel. Cancel in iOS Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions, at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Cancelling stops the next charge; it does not refund the period you are in, and you keep the membership until that period runs out. We cannot cancel it for you — only you or Apple can.
• Free trial. Where the store offers one, the membership may start with a free trial. A trial is available once per Apple Account per subscription group — taking it on one tier uses it up for the other — and converts into a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. Any unused part of a trial is forfeited if you buy the subscription outright. The exact length and terms of any trial are the ones the App Store shows you at the moment of purchase.
• Deleting the Game does not cancel it. A subscription lives with your Apple Account, not with the app on your device. See section 17.
• Offers. We may make time-limited offers, including when you decline or cancel. An offer is available only on the terms and for the period stated on the offer itself.

Restoring purchases

Restore purchases — in the shop and on the Battle Pass screen — recovers non-consumable entitlements and an active subscription that Apple has a record of for your Apple Account. Consumables you have already spent cannot be restored.

Refunds

We cannot issue refunds for App Store purchases — only Apple can. Request one through reportaproblem.apple.com and Apple’s decision applies. Except where the law requires otherwise, all purchases are final and non-refundable, and gems and items are not exchangeable or returnable. Cancelling a subscription is not the same as a refund: cancelling stops future charges, and a refund for a charge already taken is Apple’s decision alone.

Immediate delivery and withdrawal rights

Digital content bought in the Game is delivered immediately on purchase. Where you have a statutory right to withdraw from a distance contract (for example, the 14-day right under EU or UK consumer law, or the corresponding right under Turkish distance sales rules), you expressly request immediate performance and acknowledge that you lose that right of withdrawal once delivery has begun. Your other statutory rights — including rights in respect of digital content that is faulty or not as described — are unaffected.

Unauthorised purchases

Purchases are confirmed with your Apple Account. If other people — including children — can use your device, use Apple’s Screen Time, Ask to Buy and in-app purchase restrictions. Except where the law requires otherwise, we are not responsible for purchases made on your device, whoever made them; those go to Apple.

12. The Game changes, and the Game may end

The Game is a live product. We may at any time, without liability to you, change, update, rebalance, add or remove features, cards, classes, content, prices or servers, and we may limit or discontinue the Game, any mode, or any online feature (including leaderboards and name screening) in whole or in part.

Online features can stop.The Game’s battles run on your device, but leaderboards and champion name screening require our servers, and those servers may be unavailable, degraded or withdrawn permanently. We do not promise uptime.

If we discontinue the Game entirely, we will give reasonable notice where practicable. Except where the law requires otherwise, we owe no refund or compensation for gems or items you hold at that time.

13. Our intellectual property

The Game — including its code, engine, cards, classes, artwork, characters, names, text, sounds, look and feel, and the Killing Blow and AI Apps & Games names and logos — is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trade mark and other laws. Nothing in these Terms transfers any of it to you.

The Game includes third-party material used under licence, including music and typefaces. Those licences and the credits they require are shown in the Game and belong to their respective owners. You must not remove or alter those credits, and you receive no rights in that material beyond playing the Game.

14. No warranty

The Game is provided “as is” and “as available”, with all faults and without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express, implied or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, accuracy and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Game will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free; that defects will be corrected; that it is free of harmful components; that your progress or data will not be lost; or that leaderboards will be accurate, fair or free of manipulation.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits your mandatory statutory consumer rights.

15. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, saves, progress, gems or virtual items, or for any device damage, howsoever caused and under any theory of liability, even if we have been advised of the possibility.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Game and these Terms is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you actually paid us for in-app purchases in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) fifty US dollars (US$50).

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

16. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless AI Apps Yazılım Hizmetleri ve Reklam Faaliyetleri Anonim Şirketiand its directors, officers, employees and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable legal costs arising out of your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Game, the content you submit, or your violation of any law or any third party’s rights. This does not apply to the extent the claim arises from our own act or omission.

17. Suspension and termination

You may end this agreement at any time by deleting the Game from your device. Deleting the Game does not cancel a Battle Pass membership — a subscription belongs to your Apple Account, and it keeps renewing and charging until you cancel it in iOS Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions. Cancel there first if you want the billing to stop. Deleting the Game also does not, by itself, erase the progress mirrored to your keychain and iCloud (section 7); our Privacy Policy explains how to have that removed.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Game or its online features, in whole or in part, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms — in particular by cheating, submitting illegitimate entries, abusing the champion name system, or attacking our services — or if we are required to by law. Where the breach is not serious and can be fixed, we will give notice where it is reasonable to do so.

On termination, your licence to the Game and to all gems and virtual items ends immediately, and no refund is owed except where the law requires one. Sections 8 (licence to us), 10 (gems), 13 (our intellectual property), 14 (no warranty), 15 (limitation of liability), 16 (indemnity), this section 17, 19 (governing law) and 20 (general) survive termination.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms — for example, to reflect changes to the Game, our providers, or the law. The current version always lives at this address, dated at the top.

If a change is material, we will take reasonable steps to bring it to your attention before it takes effect, such as a notice in the Game or on this page. Continuing to play after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, stop playing and delete the Game.

19. Governing law and disputes

These Terms and any dispute arising out of them or the Game are governed by the laws of Türkiye, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts and enforcement offices of Türkiye competent for our registered office have exclusive jurisdiction.

If you are a consumer, this does not cut down your rights. Nothing above deprives you of the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live, or of your right to bring proceedings in your local courts where the law gives you that right. Consumers in Türkiye may also apply to the Consumer Arbitration Committees (Tüketici Hakem Heyetleri) and Consumer Courts within the applicable monetary limits. Consumers in the EU may use the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform.

Before filing anything, please email us. Most problems are faster to fix than to litigate: hello@aiapps.games.

20. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the Game, and replace any earlier understanding on that subject.
• Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the rest stays in force.
• No waiver. If we do not enforce a right, that is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, provided your rights as a consumer are not reduced.
• Third parties. Except for Apple (section 3) and those we name as indemnified in section 16, no one other than you and us has any right to enforce these Terms.
• Force majeure. We are not liable for failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
• Language. These Terms are written in English. Any translation is provided for convenience, and the English version prevails to the extent the law allows.
