Chocolate Puzzle: Choco Poco Terms of Service
Effective November 12, 2026
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are an agreement between you and the publisher of Choco Poco, listed in the stores as Chocolate Puzzle: Choco Poco (the "App"): Brainwave Learning Apps if you got the App from the Apple App Store, and Lantern Tales if you got it from Google Play ("we", "us" or "our"). They also cover the Choco Poco pages of this website. You accept these Terms when you tap Continue on the welcome card of the App, or when you use the App after we have shown them to you. If you do not agree, please do not use the App. How we handle information is explained in the privacy policy for iPhone and iPad and the one for Android.
The short version
- The App is free to play and funded by ads. Reward videos are always your choice.
- Coins, boosters and stars are part of the game, have no money value and are stored only on your device, there is no account to restore them.
- On iPhone and iPad you can buy No Ads, a Starter Pack and coin packs through Apple, and Apple handles payments and refunds.
- Play fair: no cheats, hacks or modified versions of the App.
- Nothing in these Terms takes away the rights that consumer law where you live gives you.
1. Who can play
Choco Poco is a general audience game for players 13 and older and is not directed to children under 13. If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, please read these Terms with a parent or guardian, who accepts them for you. A parent or guardian who lets a young player use the App is responsible for that use and for any purchases made on the device. We recommend turning on the purchase controls of your device, such as Ask to Buy and Screen Time on iPhone and iPad.
2. Your license to play
The App is licensed, not sold. As long as you follow these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to download, install and play the App on devices you own or control, for your own non commercial entertainment and within the usage rules of the store you got it from. All rights we do not expressly give you stay with us and our licensors.
3. Coins, boosters and stars
- The App has coins, boosters (Undo, Hint and Extra slot), continues and stars ("Items"). You earn them by playing, get some by watching optional reward videos and, on iPhone and iPad, can buy coins and boosters as described in section 4.
- Items are part of the game. They have no money value, are not your property and cannot be exchanged for money, sold, traded or transferred outside the App. What you get is a limited license to use them in the App under these Terms.
- There is no account. Items and your progress are stored only on your device and come back only with a device backup. They are lost if you delete the App or change devices without a backup, and we cannot restore them for you.
- We may change how the game works, including prices in coins, rewards, the effect of boosters, levels and offers, to keep the game fun and fair. We do not make coins you bought expire.
- Items gained through a bug, a cheat, a modified App or a refunded purchase may be removed.
4. Purchases on iPhone and iPad
- The App for iPhone and iPad offers No Ads, a Starter Pack (No Ads together with coins and boosters) and coin packs in its Sweet Shop. The Android version of the App has no purchases.
- Purchases are made through the App Store and processed by Apple under its terms. Apple charges your Apple account, sets the price in your currency and applies any taxes. We never see your payment details.
- No Ads and the Starter Pack are one-time purchases that remove the banner and the ads between levels for the Apple account you bought them with. Restore purchases in the Sweet Shop brings them back on another device or after reinstalling. Coins and boosters from purchases are used up when they are delivered and are not restored.
- Except where the law or Apple's rules give you a right to a refund, all purchases are final. Refunds are decided by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com, not by us. If something you bought did not arrive, write to us and we will help.
- If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you may have a legal right to withdraw from a purchase of digital content. When you buy something that is delivered right away, you ask for immediate delivery and acknowledge that you lose that right once delivery starts, as the store shows you at checkout.
5. Ads and reward videos
The free game is funded by ads, which come from third party ad services. The products, services and websites they promote are the responsibility of their advertisers. Watching a reward video, for example for a continue or a booster, is always your choice. A reward needs a finished video and a connection. If a reward does not arrive, tell us and we will look into it.
6. Fair play
You agree not to:
- use cheats, hacks, bots, exploits or any software or modified version of the App that changes how the game works or gives you Items or progress you did not earn or buy;
- tamper with or get around purchases, rewards or ads, or view or tap ads in an artificial way;
- copy, decompile, reverse engineer, extract assets from or modify the App, except where the law allows this despite this restriction;
- sell, rent, distribute or publish the App, its levels, art, characters, music or other parts, or make a game or product based on them;
- interfere with the App or the services of our partners, or use the App in a way that breaks the law or harms others.
If you find a bug that gives an advantage, please tell us instead of using it.
7. Our content and your videos
The App and everything in it, including the game, the animal customers, the levels, the art, music, sounds, text and code, and the names Choco Poco and Chocolate Puzzle: Choco Poco, belong to us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. You may take screenshots and record videos and streams of your own play and share them, including on channels that earn money, as long as you do not suggest that we endorse you and you do not sell the content of the App on its own. If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them freely without paying you.
8. Updates and availability
We may update the App to fix bugs, add levels and features, keep it working on new devices or comply with the law, and some updates may be needed to keep playing. We may also change, pause or end features, offers or the App itself. The game works offline, while ads, reward videos and purchases need an internet connection, and the App needs a compatible device and operating system.
9. Ending this agreement
You can stop at any time by deleting the App. We may end your license if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms or if the law requires it. When the license ends you must stop using the App, and the Items you hold are lost, unless the law gives you a right to a refund of something you paid for and did not get. Sections 3, 7 and 10 to 15 continue to apply after this agreement ends.
10. Disclaimer
We work hard to make the App fun and reliable, but we provide it "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we make no warranties beyond those stated in these Terms, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, and we do not promise that the App will always be available or free of errors, or that your progress will never be lost.
11. Limit of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost data, progress or Items, arising from these Terms or the App, and our total liability for all claims about the App is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for purchases in the App in the 12 months before the claim arose and 10 US dollars. These limits do not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or for any other liability that cannot be limited by law.
12. Your consumer rights
Nothing in these Terms limits the rights that the consumer protection laws of the country where you live give you and that cannot be waived or changed by contract. If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you keep every protection of the mandatory law of your country and may bring claims in its courts, and the limits in sections 10 and 11 apply only as far as that law allows.
13. App Store and Google Play
If you got the App from the Apple App Store
- These Terms are between you and Brainwave Learning Apps, not Apple. Brainwave Learning Apps, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content. Your license lets you use the App on Apple devices you own or control as the usage rules of the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions allow, including through Family Sharing where the App allows it.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App.
- If the App fails to conform to a warranty that applies, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the App, if any. To the fullest extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App.
- Brainwave Learning Apps, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims of you or a third party about the App or your possession and use of it, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws, and for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any claim that the App infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party.
- You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a US government embargo or designated by the US government as a terrorist supporting country, and that you are not on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with any third party terms that apply to your use of the App, such as the terms of your mobile data plan.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and once you accept them Apple has the right to enforce them against you.
If you got the App from Google Play
These Terms are between you and Lantern Tales. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App. Your use of Google Play is also governed by the Google Play Terms of Service.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may change these Terms, for example when we add features or when the law changes, and we will change the date at the top when we do. When a change is important, the App shows the updated Terms and asks you to accept them by tapping Continue before you keep playing. Other changes, such as corrections and clarifications, apply from the date at the top. If you do not agree to a change, you can stop using the App.
15. General
- Whole agreement. These Terms, together with the privacy policy and any terms we show you for a specific offer, are the whole agreement between you and us about the App.
- Severability. If part of these Terms is found unenforceable, that part is applied as far as it can be and the rest stays in force.
- No waiver. If we do not enforce a right at once, we can still enforce it later.
- Transfer. You may not transfer these Terms. We may transfer them to an affiliate or to a successor in an organization, merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of the App, and that entity will be bound by them.
- Events outside our control. We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, such as outages of stores, networks or partners.
- Language. If we provide a translation of these Terms, the English version applies where they differ, unless the law of your country requires otherwise.
