CPS-04

No Loot Boxes

Money or purchased value must never lead to a random reward.

Does not pass

Prohibited patterns

Paid loot boxes, gacha pulls, mystery crates, paid spins, paid keys, random paid card packs, or any indirect purchased-value chain to random content.

Can pass

Permitted patterns

Procedural levels, random gameplay events, earned-only random drops with no purchase/cash-out route, and fixed bundles whose contents are shown before purchase.

How the audit treats this rule

Evidence, behavior, and edge cases.

Evidence

Provide the relevant configuration, catalog, service inventory, screenshots or recordings, test account/build, and a clear description of remotely controlled behavior.

Test

The reviewer checks actual behavior across applicable account states, regions, purchase paths, notifications, remote flags, and relevant service traffic.

Pass condition

The prohibited behavior is absent, permitted behavior fits the stated caveat, and the evidence is sufficient for the frozen product scope.
