Read what you like, quote it with a link, and do not treat a guide as a promise about software that somebody else controls. The rest is detail.
What this site is
Elvarquen publishes independent written guides about the progression and reward systems in casual puzzle games. It is commentary and instruction produced by a player. It is not operated by, licensed by or connected to any studio, and it is not a support channel for any game.
What is sold here, and what is not
- One item is offered: a PDF handbook written by the publisher, described on the handbook page.
- No in-game currency, coins, stars, lives, boosters or accounts are traded in either direction.
- No files, modified clients or private servers are hosted or linked from any page.
- No competition, prize or giveaway is run from this site.
- No advertising and no affiliate links appear anywhere, including in the guide that discusses advertising.
- No payment is processed on the site; no page here takes a card number.
Order terms
Who sells it. An individual, Benjamin Davies of Newcastle, New South Wales, selling occasionally rather than as a registered business. There is no ABN and no GST registration, so no tax invoice is issued; a plain receipt is available on request. The price shown is the total in Australian dollars.
How an order is made. The form is a request and charges you nothing. A contract is formed only once I have confirmed the order by email and you have paid by transfer. Payment is arranged over email; this site never handles it.
Delivery. The file is emailed to the address given on the form within two business days of the payment clearing. If it does not arrive, write and it is resent at no charge.
Faults and refunds. Where the file is undelivered, unopenable, or not what the handbook page describes, the choice between repair, replacement and refund is yours. This sits alongside the Australian Consumer Law guarantees, which cannot lawfully be excluded. As a digital file delivered on payment there is no automatic change-of-mind right; an order cancelled before the file is sent is cancelled in full with nothing charged.
Accuracy
Guides are written from playing the games and are accurate so far as I can establish on the date shown on each page. Studios change these games without notice, so a described system may cease to work that way at any time. Material is provided as is, without warranty of completeness, currency or fitness for a particular purpose.
Reuse of the material
The writing, the layout and the site's own graphics belong to the publisher. A reasonable extract may be quoted for review, criticism, teaching or news reporting where Elvarquen is credited and the page is linked. Republication of whole guides, or their ingestion into a service that reproduces them, requires written permission beforehand.
Game names, logos and screenshots belong to their owners and appear here for identification and commentary. This site licenses none of them to you.
Links to other sites
Outbound links go to official store listings and occasionally to other publishers. Those sites are outside my control and I accept no responsibility for their content, accuracy or availability. A link indicates relevance at the time it was added and nothing more.
Liability
Use of this site is at your own risk. To the extent the law permits, the publisher is not liable for loss arising from reliance on a guide, from a game behaving differently than described, or from the site being unavailable. Nothing here excludes or limits a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Acceptable use
The contact form is for messages about this site. Bulk mail, malicious content, link-buying offers and advertising proposals are deleted unanswered. Attempts to disrupt the site or its hosting are not permitted and will be reported to the provider concerned.
Governing law and changes
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales and the Commonwealth of Australia. Revisions are published on this page with a new date, and continued use of the site after that date means the revised version applies.
