You may disable non-essential cookies; however, the Game may not function correctly without strictly necessary cookies.

5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services we embed to provide security and functionality:
• Cloudflare — provides DDoS protection, CDN delivery, and bot management. Cloudflare cookies (__cf_bm, cf_clearance) are essential and cannot be disabled.
• Cloudflare Turnstile — used on registration and login forms to verify you are human without a CAPTCHA puzzle. Sets a short-lived challenge token.
We do not embed Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Twitter Pixel, or any advertising network cookies.
No Advertising Cookies
We do not use advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies. Your browsing data is never sold or shared with ad networks.
6. Your Choices
You can control cookies in the following ways:
• Cookie consent banner — when you first visit the site, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies (functional and analytics). You can change your choice at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer.
• Browser settings — most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies will prevent login and security features from working.
• Opt out of analytics — to opt out of PostHog analytics specifically, click the "Opt out of analytics" button at the bottom of this page.
Disabling only non-essential cookies will not affect your ability to play the game or use the website.
7. Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add new features or services that introduce new cookies. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
Material changes — for example, adding a new analytics provider — will be announced via the in-game notification system and email to registered accounts.
