Game owned, but having to purchase it again

OK another question. Why do I have to keep buying the game when I had downloaded and bought it for my phone and computer.

Hi Aaka2013,

I've split your post from Community and Competition and relocated to a more appropriate forum since it is unrelated to the devblog.

To hopefully answer your question, you should not need to purchase the game again after purchasing it at least once on your phone and on your computer. You can retrieve it for free by following the instructions provided in the WolfQuest FAQs, quoted below for your convenience:

As long as you have access to your account on the respective store you purchased the game from or the e-mail receipt (if you did not create an account) you can get the game again and will not be charged to re-download the installer.

If that doesn't help, could you please be a bit more descriptive of the exact problem you're having?
Nothing interesting happens.

I've moved your post into your already existing thread here, assuming it is a related issue. Please do not continue posting your questions/problems into completely unrelated threads.

What is the exact issue are you having? Why is it not letting you download the game?
