Terms
Last updated September 2026
These terms apply when you use Detective Speaking. By creating an account you agree to them.
The game
Detective Speaking is a series of written detective stories you play by speaking or typing. The game works out what you asked on your own device; the story, the facts and the endings are written in advance.
Your account
An account lets you buy cases and restore them on your other devices. Keep your email secure, because sign-in codes are sent there. Accounts are for one person.
Using what you bought
Your purchase is for your own personal use, and you can play and replay it as often as you like. Please don’t share your account or resell access. We may pause accounts that are shared or automated.
Purchases
Purchases are handled by Paddle as merchant of record, and Paddle’s buyer terms also apply. The price and what it includes are shown before you pay. Refunds are explained in our refund policy.
What’s ours and what’s yours
The stories, characters, recordings and artwork belong to Detective Speaking. What you say in a game is yours; you let us process it to run the game, as the privacy page explains.
Changes and availability
The game is built to play on your device without our servers. The parts that do use our servers, such as this website, accounts, purchases and restoring cases on a new device, may sometimes be unavailable; we work to keep them running but cannot promise they will never be interrupted. If we change these terms in a way that matters, we will tell you by email before the change applies.
The legal part
Detective Speaking is provided by Worbee EOOD, Sofia, Bulgaria. Questions: [email protected]. These terms are governed by Bulgarian law; if you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit, including your rights as a consumer. Otherwise, we are not liable for losses that were not foreseeable, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
