NEW — FRIEND DUELS Challenge a friend to a word duel: you both get the same secret puzzles, and the fastest total time wins. Play a quick single round or a best-of-three match each of you runs it on your own time, and if your rival has already set a time, you race their mark on screen. Mistakes cost extra seconds, so accuracy counts. The result screen shows both runs side by side, takes emoji reactions and offers an instant rematch. NEW — INBOX Your profile now has a mailbox: friend requests, duel invites and reward announcements land in one place, with a badge so nothing slips by. Some announcements carry rewards you can collect right from the message. FRIENDS Out of lives? Ask your friends and send a heart back when they ask you. Adding a friend now sends a proper request they can accept or decline. And you can invite new players with your personal code: when they get going, you both earn a reward. ON THE PUZZLE Levels now show their fastest solve and how many players tackled them in the last hour or an open invitation to set the first record. Beat the time and the record carries your name. GIFTS Brand-new players get a timed coin challenge shortly after their first levels, and if you come back after a break, a free welcome-back gift now greets you on arrival. ALSO IN THIS UPDATE • Start a Race right from the level-start screen, with live standings • Race results are now always shown, and the stage-complete screen was redesigned • Live league rank and a new Leagues tab in Team Battle • Duel results appear the moment you finish and missed results pop up on the main menu • Fixed the keyboard covering the message box in team chat

COMPLETE LOOKS The Shop has a new section: four complete outfits avatar, frame, pawn and charm sold together, shown on your own avatar so you can see the whole look before you buy. A set costs less than buying its pieces one by one, and if you already own some of them, you only pay the share for the ones you are missing. REBUS PRO, REDESIGNED PRO members now get an exclusive look on top of the usual perks: a gold shimmering name, the Elite title and the premium frame shown on your own avatar right on the PRO page, and worn while your membership is active. The page itself was rebuilt too, so what you get is finally easy to read. NEW MUSIC The background music was rewritten from scratch as a short, calm loop closer to a zen garden than a jingle, made to sit quietly behind long sessions. It finally has its own volume slider: Settings → Sound & Haptics, right under the music switch. SOUND AND FEEL Buttons, popups and screens now respond with sound nearly everywhere opening your profile, tapping a leaderboard row, picking a cosmetic. Vibrations while solving are gentler: revealing a letter that appears many times no longer buzzes once per slot. ALSO - The continue screen now looks at how many coins you are missing and offers the smallest pack that covers it - The Rebus Pass premium page lists everything the premium track actually contains it was showing far less than you really get - Event screens tell you when a cosmetic reward is already yours instead of promising it again - Daily Challenge milestone chests can now contain boosters, shown with a clear count

SHARE YOUR PUZZLE There is a share button on the level end screen now. It builds a picture card of the puzzle with the letters hidden, so your friends get the riddle, not the answer - and a link that brings them to the game. Taking a screenshot while you play brings up the same card, ready to send. GAME CENTER, WORKING END TO END The Game Center sign-in now appears, achievements unlock, and your scores reach the leaderboards. Anything you earned before connecting is applied the moment you sign in. YOUR PROGRESS IS SAFER Solving a level counts the moment you solve it - it used to count only when you tapped Continue, so closing the game on the celebration screen could replay the level. Force-closing the app right after earning or spending something no longer quietly undoes it. And scrolling the hint bar no longer spends a hint by accident. TEAMS, FROM THE LEADERBOARDS Team rows in Rankings now open a team card: members, activity, required level. Join an open team right there, or send a request to a closed one. If Teams has not unlocked for you yet, the button tells you the level it opens at. LINKING YOUR ACCOUNT The screen that compares two saves could fail without showing anything; it now always appears and tells you when each save was last played. Keeping this device carries much more across - your collection, journey and daily events - and loading a cloud save no longer wipes the weekly event progress on your device. GUEST NAMES Every new player now gets a name of their own instead of plain "Guest". If yours was stuck as "Guest", it is repaired on your next launch - and picking your own name still comes with its one-time coin gift, which for some players never paid out. It does now. SMALL THINGS • Levels now show how quickly most players solve them • The Race welcome screen shows once per event week, not every day • Friends: an Add button appears right away when your list is empty • Signing out no longer resets your "Do Not Sell or Share" privacy choice

WHEN THE GAME OPENS The first screen used to sit empty for a few seconds after you tapped the icon. You now see the logo and a loading bar right away, and your puzzle list is kept on your device instead of being downloaded in full on every launch. A background security check could also hold the loading screen far longer than it should; it now takes much less time. YOU CAN SEE WHAT YOU EARNED Rewards were handed to you while the ad was still on screen, so the coins, the life or the chest all landed behind it and were gone by the time you got back to the game. A short receipt now waits for the ad to close and tells you what you got. TEAM BATTLE — REAL NAMES AND LOGOS Rival teams were showing up as “Team” followed by a string of letters, and every team wore the same shield. Both now come from the team itself, so you can tell who you are up against. If a team never picked a logo, that shield is still theirs — it is the default. A NEW NAME COLOUR Sage joins the colours that cannot be bought. Claim every Wise Feather stage and it is yours, alongside the avatar, frame and pawn that completing the event already hands out. ADS AND PRIVACY ON IPHONE On iPhone in the EU and UK, ads were not loading at all. The app now waits for your ad privacy choice before it starts its ad system, which is the order it should have been in. And if you declined app tracking, that choice now reliably reaches the ad system, so ads are no longer personalised against an answer you had already given. Changing that choice is simpler too: Settings > Privacy & Data now opens the form on the spot, instead of clearing your answer and asking you to restart the app. EDIT PROFILE • Save Changes sat below the bottom of the screen on smaller phones, and the keyboard pushed it further out of reach — it now stays in view while you scroll • A name you had typed but not saved was lost if you switched tabs and came back FIXES • When an ad failed to show, the game started asking for another one on every single level instead of waiting for the normal break • Mine Quest was opening long before the list of what unlocks next said it would; the list now shows the level it really opens at

NAME COLOURS Your username can now have a colour of its own, and everyone sees it - on leaderboards, in Teams, on your profile. Twelve to choose from: nine in the shop, and three you cannot buy at any price. Royal Gold comes from the last Rebus Pass tier, Nebula from finishing the Journey, and Solar from the Space Travel grand prize. Pick yours in Edit Profile. REBUS PASS - A NEW SEASON The ladder used to end at 55 keys, and most players finished it in a single day and then earned keys with nowhere to go. All 15 tiers now spread across 160 keys, and every tier pays around three times what it used to. A new season starts here, so progress from the old one does not carry over. If you own the Pass, your premium track unlocks again on its own. SPACE TRAVEL - THE FULL 60 FLOORS The tower was stopping at floor 30, which quietly put the grand prize at the top out of reach. It now runs all 60 floors with 15 checkpoints instead of 10, evenly spaced, and a checkpoint that was handing out nothing now pays properly. WISE FEATHER - 30 STEPS Five more steps, at the same pace: step 30 arrives on exactly the same win that step 25 used to. What changed is the start - your first chest now lands on your 5th win instead of your 24th. A REDESIGNED PROFILE Your Style shows all five things you are wearing at a glance - avatar, frame, pawn, charm and name colour - with your title on its own row underneath. Edit Profile now tells you which tab a new cosmetic is in, and the last Rebus Pass tier shows its reward worn rather than as a row of icons, so you can see what you are playing for. 37 NEW COSMETICS 22 avatars, 4 frames, 5 pawns, 2 charms and 4 achievement titles. Mine Quest's grand prize now hands you an avatar, a frame and a charm, and the last premium Pass tier adds one more avatar. STILL PLAYING AS GUEST? Choose a name you like and we will add coins to your wallet - our gift, once. FIXES - Your level could show as 1 on your profile, or as the calendar day while you were playing a Daily Challenge. - Daily Challenge had been serving the same set of puzzles month after month. - On iPhone, ads were being requested before the ad system had finished starting up, so many of them failed. - A purchase could sit on a loading spinner and never open the payment sheet. - The Shop carousel never moved, by swipe or on its own. - Main menu buttons changed places on every launch. - All three social buttons in Settings opened a blank page. - The Teams unlock message never appeared. - Reduce Motion could not be turned off in the game if your phone had it switched on. - A gap down both sides of the screen on larger phones. - Picking a cosmetic you could not afford left you with no way out but Cancel. - Lives no longer refill when the device clock is moved forward. - Rewards from Mine Quest, the Journey and other events were not shown on the screens that hand them out. - Several cosmetic rewards had no way to be earned at all. - Weekly events showed a countdown that reset every time you opened the app.

THIS UPDATE IS ALL FIXES TEAMS Some players were losing their team. The app kept showing the team browse list even though you were still a member, and trying to rejoin answered "Already a member" — so you could neither enter nor rejoin. This is fixed, and the accounts we could identify have already been repaired on our side. REWARDED ADS - Watching an ad all the way through sometimes gave you nothing. If the ad stayed open longer than three minutes, the reward was thrown away. Fixed. - On iPhone and iPad the ad privacy consent form never appeared. In the EU and UK that stopped rewarded ads from loading at all, so "Watch Ad" buttons did nothing. Fixed. - Reset Ad Consent, in Settings > Privacy & Data > Privacy Center, did the opposite of what it promised: instead of bringing the form back, it could switch your ads off for good. Fixed. - Settings > Privacy & Data > Ad Preferences opened nothing if you had never answered the consent form. Fixed. COINS Coins you earned while our server was briefly unreachable could quietly disappear the next time you were rewarded. Those coins are now queued and delivered once the connection is back.

NEW — PROFILE VIEWS Someone is watching. See how many players have viewed your profile, and check the last 5 visitors right on your own profile — tap any of them to see who they are. Your total view count is public. The list of who visited is yours alone, and nobody else can see it. If you would rather look around without leaving a trace, turn on Browse privately in Settings → Privacy & Data. A BETTER PROFILE • Six new stats: current and longest win streak, best solve time, average time, days played, perfect solves • Best and average times are now measured properly — ad breaks and time spent away from the game no longer count • "Member since" and total time played on your profile card FIXES • The Shop could open with no way to close it, leaving you stuck • Offers and daily rewards would not open right after launch • Your own team name now shows correctly in Team Battle • A rare white screen on startup when the network blocked our font provider • Profile popups opened behind the bottom bar

• Launch: fixed a blank/white screen some devices showed on every launch (caused by an external font/emoji CDN blocking startup) • Older iPhones (8 / 8 Plus / X): fixed a security-check failure that could block saving progress and loading leaderboards • Accounts: signing in with Google no longer leaves a duplicate profile in the leaderboards • Level 5: the "tap to start" tip could open a dark overlay over the puzzle and lock the screen — fixed • Offers: countdown showed a wrong time (e.g. "8573h"); now shown in days, and the offer runs 14 days • Android: main-menu buttons looked misaligned when the system font size was large • ReBUS Race: matchmaking now pairs real players, Stage 1 reward shows correctly (250 coins + 60m Hammer), tutorial redesigned • Teams: fixed wrong avatars in chat and in the lives pop-up, removed the back-to-back tutorial, fixed keyboard spacing • Redesigned the "Out of lives" and Quest reward pop-ups • Text no longer gets selected when you press and hold anywhere • New: "Active today" / "Active this week" badge on leaderboards and profiles

Achievements, fixed. Game Center achievements and stats now unlock reliably. Anything you earned before connecting is saved and applied the moment you sign in — no more progress disappearing into thin air. A gentler start. Levels 19 and 20 now have friendlier puzzles, so the skill tutorial no longer brings your run to a halt. A clearer How to Play. Redesigned with a worked example (BREAK + FAST = BREAKFAST) and step-by-step icons, so the idea clicks in seconds. More satisfying sound. New audio for the stars on the level complete screen, plus a little celebration when you first open the game. Also: a refreshed About screen and small fixes throughout. Thanks for playing!
