We play the long game.

Lydex Solutions is a small independent studio in England. We build apps that are always ad-free and never track you, from a strategy game with four thousand years of history to spelling practice for primary schools.

The promise

What our software will never do

  • Show adverts Not in free tiers, not anywhere. A game should never be a billboard.
  • Track you No advertising IDs, no tracking across other apps, and no data sold. Each app's privacy page says exactly what it keeps.
  • Move your data Play and learning data stay on your device. Purchases go through Apple or Google, and a purchase record, kept under an anonymous ID, lets you restore what you bought.
  • Hide the price Every app is free to download. One purchase unlocks the full game, or for SpellStar, clear monthly and yearly plans. The price is shown before you pay, with no surprises later.
Proof, not promises This page loads from our server alone. No third-party requests, no cookies, no trackers, and we verify that automatically before every release.

The studio

Small on purpose

We keep the studio small so we can answer our own support email and say no to anything that would make an app worse to own. Ad-free and no tracking are not features we add later. They are where we start. More about us.
