Marks & the Royal Mint

1. What Marks are

Marks are an in-game currency. You get them only by playing: at the Royal Mint you trade in Gold you earned in the game for a share of the Marks struck that day. The Gold you trade in is destroyed.

Each day the Mint strikes a set number of Marks, shared by everyone who traded in Gold that day and capped by each player’s rank. The daily number, caps and other rules are shown in the game and may change as described below.

You spend Marks on in-game things such as Royal Library rushes and relocation charms. Marks you spend are destroyed (burned).

2. What Marks are not

We do not sell Marks. There has been no presale or private sale, and we will not sell Marks to raise money. Gold cannot be bought with money, so Marks cannot be bought from us at all.

Marks have no cash value. They cannot be sold to us, exchanged with us, or redeemed with us for money, cryptocurrency, NFTs or goods outside the game.

Marks are not an investment, a security, a deposit or a financial product. Holding Marks gives you no share of our revenue, profits, royalties, fees or company, no vote in how we are run, and no interest, yield or staking reward. We do not buy back Marks or support any price.

While Marks are in the game, they are a feature of the game that we licence you to use, not property you own.

3. Plans for Marks outside the game

We plan that Marks may one day be held in a Solana wallet, when a published milestone is reached. This is a plan, not a promise. It may be delayed, changed or cancelled, and may never happen.

If it happens, it may be limited by age (18+), by country, by wallet and account checks, and by rank-based waiting periods and caps. It may not be offered where you live. It will come with its own terms, which you will need to accept.

Do not get or keep Marks expecting them to be worth money. Get them to use in the game.

4. Fair play

One account per person. Using more than one account, bots, scripts or exploits to get Marks is not allowed. We may remove Marks gained that way, cancel trades, and suspend accounts.

If a bug or mistake credits Marks wrongly, we may correct your balance. If a purchase with Marks fails, the Marks are returned.

Test accounts use a separate pool that never mixes with real players.

5. Changes, ending and taxes

To keep the game fair and working, we may change the daily strike, caps, prices in Marks and what Marks can buy. We post changes on the Updates page before they take effect, except to fix a bug or stop abuse.

We may close the Royal Mint or end Marks. If we do, Marks have no further use and no money is owed for them.

If your account is deleted or suspended for breaking the terms, its Marks end with it.

You are responsible for any taxes that apply to you.
