Welcome to Gladiator Mayhem! Our game allows you to choose a hero and battle fellow players in a fast-paced action-packed game (Services). While using the Services, you also will have the chance to trade crypto tokens (Tokens) to access additional services, accessories and features for your hero. All features and limitations of the Services will be set out in more detail on our website (Site).

In these Terms, when we say you or your, we mean you as an individual if you are accepting these Terms for yourself. When we say we, us, or our, we mean Lightning Forge Games Pty Ltd (ACN 678 849 440).  

These terms and conditions (Terms) form our contract with you, and set out our obligations as a service provider and your obligations as a customer. You cannot use the Services unless you agree to these Terms.

Some capitalised words in these Terms have defined meanings, and each time that word is used in these Terms it has the same meaning. You can find a list of the defined words and their meaning at the end of these Terms.

OUR DISCLOSURES
