Frequently asked questions

How do the purchases work?

The whole game is free, and Classic has nothing to buy. In Relaxed, Undo (3), hints (5) and extra-dot taps (3) have a limit in every game, and a new game gives them again. When one runs out, you can buy more for the game you are playing. There are two optional purchases, both for the current game only and both 0.99 US dollars (the price in your own currency is shown on the card): Help Pack gives you 10 more undos and 20 more hints, and 3 More Taps gives you 3 more taps of the crib note button. Each tap adds three dots, so that is nine more dots. You can buy them as often as you like. What you buy is used up in that game: a new game starts again with the free ones. There are no subscriptions, and nothing is bought for good.

To buy, tap the cart button in the top bar of a Relaxed game, or the button on the card that appears when a help has run out. The App Store asks you to confirm with your Apple Account, and the purchase works at once, in the game you are playing.

Can I get a refund?

Purchases are handled by Apple, so refunds are too. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com.

What is the ink bottle?

In Relaxed, Pinky’s extra dots come in batches, and the ink bottle shows how many batches are left. It starts every game with 8. When it is empty, no more come by themselves; a new game fills it again. The ink bottle cannot be bought.

What are the extra dots?

In Relaxed, Pinky the fairy adds three extra dots next to your pattern every few lines, while there is ink in the bottle, and whenever you tap the crib note button (3 times in every game).

I’m stuck — what now?

In Relaxed, tap the lamp and Pinky will show you a place where a line still fits (5 hints in every game), or use the crib note button for extra dots. When the game says there are no more moves, start a new game. Classic has no helpers: only you, the paper and your score.

Where is my high score saved?

Your high scores are stored only on your device. Deleting the app also deletes them.

Does InkyPinky show ads?

No. InkyPinky has no ads at all — only optional purchases.
