‹ Back to the arcade

Support

We read everything that comes in.

01Get in touch

Email support@arcadesandbox.com for anything at all: a game that will not load, a purchase that did not arrive, a question about your account, or a report about something you saw in the arcade.

Tell us your account email and, if it is about one game, the link to it. That is usually enough for us to fix it without another round of questions.

02Report a game

Every game has a ••• menu with Report this game. Reports go to a person, not a queue that nobody reads. A game that breaks the rules comes off the arcade and stops being playable.

You can also email us the link if you would rather not use the button.

03Block a creator

The same ••• menu has Block this creator. Blocking is just for you: their games stop showing up in your arcade, and nothing is taken down. You can undo it any time in Settings, where every creator you have blocked is listed.

04What is not allowed

Games here are for everyone. Ideas and cover art are screened before a game reaches the arcade, and anything in this list is removed when we find it:

Normal video-game action is fine. Monsters, lasers, swords, explosions, and spooky themes are all welcome.

Repeatedly breaking these rules gets the account closed, not just the one game.

05Deleting your account

In the app, open Settings › Delete my account. On the website, email us and we will do it.

Deleting erases your tokens, your art, your drafts, and the games you unlocked. Games you already shared stay in the arcade without your name on them, because other players spent tokens to unlock them. This cannot be undone.

An Arcade Pass bought in the iPhone app is an Apple subscription. Deleting your account does not cancel it. Cancel it in the Settings app under your Apple Account.

06Purchases

Tokens bought in the iPhone app go through Apple. For a refund, use Apple's Report a Problem page. Tokens bought on the website go through Stripe, so email us for those.

A game that fails to build never costs you anything. If you were charged for one that did not finish, tell us and we will put the tokens back.
