### 3/5 — This game is fun and nice but my purchase cant be restored

*2026-08-17, version 1.19*

I enjoy this game so much it’s fun. However, I paid for the premium access card 3 years ago and I got the card, but I downloaded this game back and I can’t access the premium card. No matter how many times I tried to restore the purchase, it tells me that there are no purchases available to restore. I was logged in to the same apple account that I purchased the premium card and it still wouldn’t work. Now the game is kind of boring without the premium card. Please fix this issue.
