Fair play

SPUZL is free, and nobody can pay to win. Here's how we keep it fair and friendly.

Every clear is checked

• Answers stay on our servers. Your board is checked there before any XP, Sparks or rank.
• Clears faster than humanly possible are flagged and kept off the boards until a moderator looks.
• We keep your moves for 90 days, so top and flagged results can be checked step by step.

No paid advantages

• Sparks are earned by playing. They can't be bought, sold or swapped for money.
• Sparks buy looks, board themes, Streak Freezes and practice hints. Nothing in the Shop helps you win.
• No loot boxes. No gambling of any kind.

Friendly by design

• In-game chat is quick phrases and reactions. Typing is only on when everyone in the room is 16 or older, and typed lines are filtered; if anyone under 16 is in the room, everyone uses quick phrases.
• Nicknames are filtered. If one gets through, report it and a moderator checks within a day.
• You can block anyone. Blocked players can't find you, add you or see your activity.
• Players under 16 add friends only by invite link or QR code, and their city never appears on public boards.

What gets you removed

• Using bots, scripts or tools that solve puzzles for you.
• Offensive nicknames or crew names, or using reports to harass people.
• Making extra accounts to climb boards or leagues.

We may hide a result, reset a nickname, remove ranking access or close an account. Think we got it wrong? Tell us.

Look after yourself

Puzzles are better with breaks. A Streak Freeze covers a missed day, and Relaxed mode hides the timer.
