What they say vs what they do
15/25 points
Block Blast! is a puzzle game, not a neutral attention tool. Hungry Studio’s August 2026 policy identifies ARETIS LIMITED and describes in-game privacy preferences. A simple-looking game can still have meaningful device, advertising and optional-feature data uses.
