These Terms of Service explain the conditions for using Gem Forge Idle (the “Game”) and its optional purchases and online features. Read the relevant product description before buying. These terms do not remove any rights that applicable consumer law gives you. If you have a question about them, contact us before making a purchase.

1. Who can use the Game

The Game is intended for people aged 13 and over, consistently with its Privacy Policy. Follow the age requirements of Google Play and Google Play Games and any applicable rules where you live. If you cannot enter into a binding agreement yourself, a parent or legal guardian must approve your use and any purchases where required. A content age rating is not permission for a child to make an unauthorised purchase.

2. Personal use and virtual items

You may use a lawfully obtained copy of the Game for your personal, non-commercial entertainment, subject to these terms and applicable law. The Game’s software, artwork and other protected material remain the property of their respective rights holders. Nothing here restricts uses that the law permits, including applicable exceptions to intellectual-property rights.

Gold, gemstones, tools, boosts and worker credits are virtual gameplay items, not real gemstones, money, investments or a promise of financial return. The Game provides no cash-redemption or player-to-player resale facility. This does not restrict any refund or other remedy to which you are legally entitled.

3. Optional purchases and refunds

Purchases in the Android Game are processed through Google Play Billing. Check the item, price, currency and purchase confirmation shown by Google Play before paying. Prices may differ by country and may change for future purchases. We do not receive your full payment-card details.

Products described as permanent, such as Remove Ads, Permanent Double Damage and permanent tools, are non-consumable unlocks rather than subscriptions. Worker packages are consumable credits, described below. Neither type automatically renews. Gameplay unlock requirements and the product description still apply.

Eligible non-consumable purchases can be recognised through the Google Play account used to buy them, subject to store verification. Restoring a store purchase is not the same as restoring game progress or previously consumed worker credits; keep your game save and, when available, a current cloud backup.

For a missing purchase or refund request, contact us or use Google Play’s refund process. Eligibility depends on the purchase, your circumstances, Google Play’s applicable policies and your legal rights. There is no blanket “no refunds” rule in these terms. Share an order reference if needed, but never send passwords or full payment-card details.

4. Worker packages: 100 used days

A worker package supplies 100 used days for the worker service shown in the Game; it is not a 100-calendar-day subscription. A credit is used when you start an eligible worker batch. Each worker service supports one batch per UTC day, with the stated six-hour shift and required stone selection. Unused days do not expire merely because you are away from the Game.

There is no automatic renewal or recurring charge. A new package can be bought when the existing service’s credits and active batch have finished, subject to the Game’s purchase and progression rules. Different worker characters, machine types and Ascension unlocks are described in the Game.

5. Optional rewarded advertisements

Where available, you can choose a rewarded advertisement for the boost displayed in the Game. Ad availability can depend on consent, connectivity, region and the advertising provider. A request for an ad does not guarantee that an ad can be shown. Without an earned reward confirmation, no ad reward is granted.

When Remove Ads ownership is recognised, the Game’s existing reward buttons provide their stated bonuses without watching an ad. Boost duration, cooldown and stacking rules remain the ones displayed in the Game. Advertisements are supplied by third parties; their presence is not an endorsement of an advertised product.

6. Local saves, shared cloud accounts and resets

The Game keeps progress on your device. Guest play uses local progress; account sign-in and first-time online service registration require connectivity. Supported local gameplay can continue offline. Some features, such as purchases, time verification, advertisements and cloud synchronisation, need connectivity and the relevant platform services.

On Android and in the dedicated AIBuiltProjects.com browser edition, you can sign in with the same Google account to continue your Gem Forge Idle progress. Each game keeps its own save under the shared AIBuiltProjects account. Guest saves stay on the device or in the browser profile where you played. Eligible account progress made offline syncs when you reconnect and the service is available. Wait for the Game to confirm the cloud save before switching devices.

If two devices make progress separately and the shared service detects conflicting saves, the Game selects the more advanced eligible save and keeps the other as a private recovery copy on the device that resolves the conflict. The Game uses one complete save without combining inventories, progress, rewards or Worker credits. A confirmed reset takes priority over older saves. Connectivity, service limits and account changes can delay synchronisation.

Uninstalling, clearing app data, resetting a device or using Reset Progress may remove local progress. Do not treat a local progress reset as deletion of your Google or Unity account or every remote copy. The shared AIBuiltProjects account uses Google/Firebase sign-in rather than a separate password supplied to us. Contact us about recovery problems or data requests. These practical limitations do not remove your statutory rights if the Game or purchased content is faulty or not as described.

Resetting Gem Forge progress, deleting only its cloud save and deleting the whole AIBuiltProjects account are different actions. Reset/cloud-delete operations use revision and generation safeguards; cloud deletion pauses upload until you explicitly resume. Whole-account deletion affects associated data for every game using that account, not your Google account or independent platform records. Pending cleanup is not completed deletion: the server retains a durable retry job and blocks stale writes until cleanup is confirmed. Read the deletion explanation and external request option before confirming. Use your own account only; do not attempt to access another player’s data.

Once deletion of your AIBuiltProjects account is complete, your Android leaderboard profile and records are removed from the active rankings. Resetting progress, deleting only the Gem Forge Idle cloud save and signing out leave your ranking profile and records in place.

In compatible Android versions, Reset Progress preserves paid Worker days you have not used. It resets active Worker jobs and the stones assigned to them. A day already used to start a batch remains used. Your existing rights relating to purchases and refunds continue to apply.

The browser edition does not offer Google Play Billing or activate Android paid services. Preserved Android purchase metadata is not a new browser purchase or a guarantee that a platform-specific benefit is available on another platform. Cloud account deletion is not a refund and does not delete Google Play purchase history. Mandatory consumer rights remain unchanged.

7. Player names and fair use

When Android leaderboards are available, eligible players who are signed in with Google participate automatically. The Game keeps your confirmed public name or generates a short public identifier if you have none. You can edit it in Settings, and the new name appears on your existing records. The Game automatically submits eligible finished-stone records for Gems, Cabochons and Diamonds.

Other players can see your public name, rank, record value in Gold and the stone details on the card. They can share a public card through their device. Gold is an in-game value. Choose a public name that avoids impersonation, disclosure of someone else’s private information and abusive or unlawful material.

Do not interfere with online services, exploit purchase systems or deliberately falsify records to harm other players. We may hide fraudulent or manipulated leaderboard scores. Restrictions on unauthorised copying or modification apply only to the extent permitted by law. Report faults to us rather than using them to damage services or other users.

Kongregate operates separate leaderboards under its own platform rules. Its Gems statistic uses its own scoring criteria for eligible Kongregate records. Android leaderboards use the AIBuiltProjects account service.

8. Updates, availability and your rights

We may issue updates for fixes, security, compatibility and gameplay improvements. Online features also depend on third-party providers and are not guaranteed to be continuously available. The availability of Android leaderboards in compatible versions can be changed through server settings without a new app update. We will not use these terms to remove statutory remedies or retrospectively contradict what a paid product was described as providing.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability or a remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including applicable rights concerning faulty, misdescribed or undelivered digital content. If a problem occurs, contact us so we can investigate. These terms do not require you to give up mandatory consumer protections, accept compulsory arbitration or use a court that the law does not require.

9. Privacy, third-party services and changes

Our Gem Forge Idle Privacy Policy explains information handling, including the optional shared AIBuiltProjects account/cloud service, platform-specific Unity and Google Play Games features, advertising and billing. Google and Unity also have their own applicable service terms and privacy policies. These terms do not grant us access to your Google password or override your platform privacy controls.

If these terms change, the updated version will be published here with a new date. Material changes affecting paid features or user rights will be communicated through an appropriate channel before they take effect where required. New terms will not retrospectively remove rights attached to an earlier purchase.

10. Contact and related documents

For gameplay, purchase, recovery or terms questions, contact Marian Florinel Condruz / EpicJoy Games at condruzmf@gmail.com. Please include the Game version and a description of the problem; do not include passwords, sign-in codes or payment-card details.
