Terms of use

Last updated: 20 September 2026

1. Who we are and what this is

Dusk Brawl is an online game at duskbrawl.com, run by the Dusk Brawl team ("we", "us"). These terms are the agreement between you and us for using the game and the website. You can reach us at support@duskbrawl.com.

By making an account, or by playing, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not play.

2. Who can play

• You must be 18 or older to make an account, and you confirm that you are when you sign up.
• You must be allowed to use the game under the laws of the place where you live. Staked matches and stock gifts (sections 6 and 7) are not offered where they are against the law, and it is your responsibility to know whether they are lawful for you.

3. Accounts

• Guest: you can play without an account. A guest has no profile: nothing is saved.
• Email account: you type your email address and we send you a six-digit code. There is no password. Whoever can read your email can sign in to your account, so keep your mailbox safe.
• Wallet account: you sign a message with a crypto wallet. We never see your private key or your recovery phrase, and we will never ask for them. Whoever controls the wallet controls the account.
• You can link a wallet to an email account, or add an email to a wallet account. After that both sign in to the same account. A link cannot be moved to another wallet or email afterwards.
• One person, one account per match. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
• You can delete your account at any time from your profile in the game. Deleting is final: your progress cannot be brought back.

4. Names and behaviour

Pick a name that others can live with. We can change or remove names that are hateful, sexual, threatening, that pretend to be someone else, or that pretend to speak for us.

The same goes for the lobby chat. Hate speech, threats, spam and advertising do not belong there. Some words mute their author automatically for a while, and we can mute or close accounts that keep at it.

5. Fair play

You may not:

• use cheats, bots, scripts, modified clients or anything else that plays for you or gives you information or abilities the game does not;
• use bugs on purpose to gain an advantage (tell us about them instead, please);
• team up with opponents, throw matches or lose on purpose to move ratings or money, or play against your own second accounts;
• attack, overload or probe the servers, or disturb other players' connections;
• sell, buy or trade accounts.

If we find that you did, we can remove results, reset ratings and progress, withhold gifts that were won that way, and suspend or close the account. Where real money was involved we may also refuse further staked matches.

6. Staked matches

Staked matches are optional. They need a linked wallet, and they are played with your own cryptocurrency (ETH on Robinhood Chain).

• Every player pays the same entry, shown in dollars and in ETH before you pay, into a smart contract (an escrow). We do not hold the entries ourselves.
• The best-placed paying player receives the pot minus the house cut. The cut is shown in the lobby before you pay (5 % at the time of writing). Computer-controlled brawlers cannot win the pot.
• If you leave the lobby before the match starts, your entry is returned. If a match cannot be played or finished, the entries are returned. The contract also lets anyone trigger a refund of a match that was left hanging.
• Once a match has started, the entry is not returned because you lost, disconnected, had a slow connection or a slow device, or closed the page.
• Network fees (gas) are yours to pay, and they are not returned.
• Crypto prices move. The dollar figures shown are estimates at the moment the lobby was opened.
• Transactions on a blockchain cannot be undone by us or by anyone else. Check what you are signing in your wallet.
• You are responsible for any taxes on what you win.

Only stake what you can afford to lose. A staked match is a game of skill between players, and you can lose your entry. If playing for money stops being fun, stop, and consider talking to a support service for problem gambling in your country.

7. Stock gifts

Now and then a gift crate in a match holds a small amount of a tokenised stock. They are promotional gifts from us, given while our prize wallet has stock in it, and they can be changed or ended at any time.

• A gift can only be won and claimed by an account with a wallet. Gifts are tied to the wallet address that won them.
• You can claim once your unclaimed gifts are worth the minimum shown in the game. A claim is sent to your wallet address on Robinhood Chain.
• Values shown are estimates. Tokenised stocks are issued by third parties, not by us, and we make no promise about their price, about where they can be traded, or about what rights they carry.
• Nothing in the game is investment advice.

8. No cash value

Experience, levels, ratings, missions, auras and other items in the game have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged for money and are not your property. We can rebalance, change or reset them as the game develops.

9. Our content

The game, its code, art, characters, names and sounds belong to us or to those who licensed them to us. You get a personal, non-transferable permission to play the game in your browser. You are welcome to stream and share footage of your own play.

10. Changes, downtime and bugs

The game is under active development. Brawlers are rebalanced, features come and go, and the game can be down for updates or for reasons outside our control. We try to keep it running and fair, but we provide it "as is" and cannot promise it will always be available or free of errors.

11. Liability

As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, for losses caused by your wallet, your wallet provider, the blockchain, its network or third-party tokens, or for losses caused by someone else getting into your mailbox or wallet. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, and nothing takes away rights you have as a consumer under the mandatory law of your country.

12. Ending

You can stop playing and delete your account whenever you like. We can suspend or close accounts that break these terms. Unclaimed stock gifts stay tied to the wallet address that won them, unless they were won by breaking these terms.

13. Changes to these terms

We can update these terms as the game changes. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change is significant we will say so in the game. If you keep playing after a change, the new terms apply.

14. Disputes

Talk to us first: most things can be sorted out at support@duskbrawl.com. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you can bring a case in the courts there.
