Last updated: June 9, 2026
The short version: Be respectful. There is zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior in chat. You can Block or Report any player from the in-game chat — reports reach us and offenders can be removed. By using the App you agree to these terms.
These Terms of Use and Community Guidelines ("Terms") govern your use of Capture the Flag ("the App"). By downloading, accessing, or using the App you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

We review reports and act on objectionable content — which may include removing content and ejecting abusive users from play. To report a serious issue directly, email ctfgamesupport@gmail.com and we will respond as promptly as we can.
The App has no accounts or passwords — you simply choose a display name. You are responsible for the name you choose and for everything you send through the App. Don't impersonate others, and don't put personal information in chat or your name.
Capture the Flag is a GPS game played outdoors. Stay aware of your surroundings. Obey all laws, respect private property, and don't trespass, play in unsafe areas, or use the App while driving. You play at your own risk, and you are responsible for your own safety and that of others around you.
The App is a free, hobbyist game provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the App, including any conduct of other players or anything that happens while you are playing in the real world.
The game is free. An optional "Support the Game" link opens an external donation page (Ko-fi). Donations are voluntary, are not required to play, and do not unlock any features.
We may restrict or end access to the App or its servers for anyone who violates these Terms or the Community Guidelines.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the App after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
