Supporter, priced on the public pages

Unlimited mode in the daily investing game

Unlimited on erstwhile.io is a paid extra: random five-year windows, as many as you like. The daily puzzle stays free. A different site uses the same word for a free practice set. That offer is not this one.

What you are paying for

The daily game already gives you today’s window. Unlimited adds windows that are not tied to the calendar. The public supporter note describes them as random, with no date and no number, and says they count on your profile rather than in that day’s ranking. I did not find a numeric cap on the public pages, so I will not print one.

The year price is the one the page itself glosses as about $0.75 a month. I treat that as the page’s own arithmetic on $8.99, not a second product. Refunds are whatever the terms page already says: no partial refunds beyond rights the law already gives you. I am not adding a grace period the terms do not mention.

The other “unlimited”

erstwhilegame.online advertises a free unlimited mode and a set of practice puzzles. That site says it is a separate game. Its practice count is not a feature of erstwhile.io. If a search for “erstwhile game unlimited” lands on jewelry or a record, you have left the puzzle entirely.

Questions

Do I need Unlimited to play today?

No. Today’s puzzle is free.

How do I cancel?

The terms page says you cancel from the supporter page or from Link. Billing is Link, part of Stripe.
