Terms
The short version: BrainBreak is a free daily word game. Play it, enjoy it, and please don't try to break it for everyone else.
Using the game
BrainBreak is free to play and needs no account. You may play it as much or as little as you like. We may change the game, add new ones, or adjust how it works as the product develops.
Fair play
We ask you not to:
- Submit results you did not actually play, to the leaderboard.
- Automate play, or send traffic designed to slow the game down for other people.
- Choose a display name that impersonates someone, or that other players would reasonably find abusive.
We can remove a leaderboard entry or a display name that breaks these, without notice. Nothing else about your play is affected — the game itself keeps working.
Your results
Your games, statistics and streak are stored in your own browser, and you can erase them at any time from Settings. Because they live on your device rather than in an account, we cannot restore them if you clear your browser data or switch device. If you join the leaderboard, the display name and results you submit are shown publicly on it.
The words
Definitions and example sentences are written to be useful in a game, not to be a dictionary of record. They are kept short on purpose. If one looks wrong, we would rather hear about it than have it stay wrong.
Availability
The game is provided as it is, without any promise that it will always be available or free of faults. We do not guarantee that a daily puzzle will appear every single day, or that the leaderboard will always be reachable — though the game is deliberately built to keep working when those parts are not.
Advertising and analytics
The game shows ads and measures aggregate usage to pay for itself and to understand whether it is any good. What that involves, and what is never collected, is set out on the privacy page.
Changes to these terms
If these terms change in a way that matters, the change will be visible here. Continuing to play after that means the updated terms apply.
