![]() ![]() Google and this company believes the word "FLOW" used in a mobile game will inadvertently make users believe your game is tied to this other franchise. The issue here is that trademark deals with your brand recognition. To have your app approved, you must remove the "FLOW" trademark from the app title. " But Google has agreed that it does infringe Big Duck's numerous worldwide registered trademarks for "Flow" for mobile games and puzzle games. "Jake, I understand your frustration given that your app has been removed. I can't afford lawyers etc, I just would rather not give in to what feels like bullying unless I have no other choice. I can do this, and it looks like I don't have a choice, but it seems insane that a completely unrelated app can be taken down for using a common English word. I tried reasoning with the lawyer who sent the takedown (as Google says to contact them), and was told my only option is to change the name of my game. The trademark in question is "Flow", apparently owned by a game about joining dots. I've also posted over on /r/androiddev ( here) but would really appreciate more assistance.īasically, at 3am today I got an email telling me my isometric tile rotating game City Flow ( /r/cityflow) had been taken down for trademark infringement.

The only complaint you could leverage from me would be that the apps seem to drain battery more than you would expect from such a simple application.No show-off posts. So much so I find it edgy to return to the other three! I hope to see another Flow app emerge that changes up the game and mixes and matches as well as the Hexes do! It’s a pleasing aesthetic change in addition to the functional, problem solving dimension. The Hex Flows is my favorite of the 4 Flow apps. It’s a good way for me to set aside my frustrations for a bit and focus on puzzling. I’ve found their Flow series to be a great de-stressed after a long day of classes, work, arguments, glitchy electronics. I’m a perfectionist, more or less, so I like to go for the ace straight away. They add a fun and refreshing change to the puzzles. I love their new, ‘wacky’ packs - with mechanics/layout twists, such as the amoeba pack. Buying additional puzzles even removes ads for you! App is fairly regularly updated with new flow colors (if you are into different aesthetics) as well as new packs of puzzles. Plenty of content for a free puzzle game, & the in-app purchases are very reasonable particularly for the amount you get from such a small sum. I don’t see anything wrong with this app! Keep up the great work and thank you for your time for this great game! This way, you can play your brain puzzles and have a fun challenge for yourself instead of advertisements challenging your patience. Even better, there are not that many advertisements. There is also a time trial, which lets you select an amount of time to play for and then you try and solve as many puzzles as possible before time runs out! It is a fantastic challenge for those who set their goals pretty high, for those who want to test their limits, or really for anybody who wants to try something to get your brain into action! There are advertisements, yet they are not always videos and you may click the “x” immediately. I definitely recommend this game! I love this game and, like me, if you love brain puzzles then you may love this game also! I love the colors! They are warm, inviting, and make a colorful board! Each board on each level is different and is great for a good brain game! There are one hundred and fifty puzzles per pack and several different packs so you can keep on playing! If you are the type who loves brain puzzles, but have finished all of the packs, there is even a “Daily Puzzles” pack that changes each day.
