What RapidSlate is

RapidSlate is an editorial site. It publishes reviews of free-to-play puzzle games available on Google Play, written by people who installed and played them. Everything we publish is opinion and description, offered for information only.

Using this site means you accept the terms on this page. If any part does not suit you, the honest answer is to stop using the site.

No advertising, no placements

This site carries no advertising banners, no pop-ups and no sponsored rows. Nobody can pay to appear on the slate, to raise a score or to change the order of the entries.

The desk is meant to be funded by the reader subscription described as Plus on the home page, at A$4.90 per month. That tier is still being activated: no payment is collected today, no card details are requested, and submitting the form creates no obligation to pay anything at any time.

Links to Google Play are plain links to a public store listing. There is no commercial arrangement behind them.

Independence and accuracy

Scores, review counts and screenshots are taken from public Google Play listings on the date shown on the page, read from Australia in English. Store data changes constantly, so figures may drift after publication; we refresh them when a review is updated.

Games change too. A title we enjoyed may be altered by an update, and our note may then describe a version you no longer see. Always check the current listing in the store before installing anything.

We are not affiliated with Google LLC, with Google Play, or with any studio named on this site. Trade marks, app names, icons and screenshots belong to their respective owners and appear here for identification and review under fair dealing for criticism and review.

Your use of the site

• Read, quote and link to our pages freely, with attribution to RapidSlate.
• Do not copy the site wholesale, republish our reviews as your own, or scrape the pages at a rate that burdens the server.
• Do not attempt to break, probe or interfere with the site or the systems behind it.
• The editorial text, page design and the RapidSlate name are ours; third-party material stays with its owners.

Consumer guarantees and liability

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy that the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) gives you and that cannot lawfully be excluded. The regulator for that law is the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission at accc.gov.au.

Beyond those non-excludable guarantees, the site is provided as it stands. We do not promise that it will be uninterrupted, error free or suitable for a particular purpose, and we are not responsible for what a third-party store, app or developer does with your device or your data.

Governing law and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, and the courts of that State have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.

Corrections, complaints and takedown requests reach a person at desk@rapidslate.com. We would rather hear from you than from anyone else.
