Last updated: September 7, 2026

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the mobile application 12 Beads - Offline Board Game (package: com.novixalabs.beads12), published by Novixa-Labs ("we", "us", or "our"). By downloading, installing, or using the app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

1. About the App

12 Beads is a digital version of the traditional 12-bead board game, known in different regions as 12 Tehni, 12 Guti, 12 Gutta, and similar names. You can play against the CPU or another player on the same device. The app is available in 10 languages.

2. Eligibility

You must be able to form a binding contract under the laws of your country to use this app. If you are under the minimum age required in your jurisdiction, you may use the app only with permission from a parent or legal guardian.

3. License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the app on devices you own or control, solely for personal, non-commercial use and in accordance with these Terms and applicable law.

You may not:

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the app except where permitted by law
• Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the app without our written permission
• Use the app for unlawful, harmful, or abusive purposes
• Interfere with or disrupt the app, ads, billing, or online services

4. Game Rules & Fair Play

The app implements traditional board-game rules. You are responsible for playing fairly in hotseat mode. AI difficulty and optional capture rules are provided for entertainment; we do not guarantee any particular outcome or ranking.

5. Intellectual Property

The app, its design, branding, artwork, sounds, and software are owned by Novixa-Labs or its licensors. The traditional game rules are in the public domain; our digital implementation and assets are protected.

6. Ads & In-App Purchases

The free version may show ads (banner on menus; interstitial after a completed match when you continue; rewarded videos only if you tap Watch ad). Google AdMob and AdMob Mediation partners (such as InMobi and Unity) may be used. Unity Ads may also be used as a fallback when no ad is available.

Lives: you start with 5 for vs CPU. A win does not spend an extra life; a loss or draw spends one life. At 0 lives you may watch a rewarded ad for 1 life, wait 30 minutes for 1 life (or 150 minutes for 5 lives), or purchase 12 Beads Pro (product ID beads12_pro) — a one-time Google Play purchase that removes ads, grants unlimited lives, and unlocks Vs Player. Vs Player may also be unlocked for the current app session by watching a rewarded ad.

7. Updates & Changes

We may update the app or these Terms from time to time. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOVIXA-LABS AND ITS DEVELOPERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP.

Our total liability for any claim relating to the app shall not exceed the amount you paid us for the app in the twelve (12) months before the claim (or zero if the app was free).
