Crema Games Bans Almost 900 Temtem Players For Cheating, Reverses Decision On Appeals

Cheaters have always been a problem for any game whether it’s a game of cards or an online monster-collecting game like Temtem. Crema Games recently brought the banhammer down on nearly 900 players for cheating or abusing known exploits in the game. The studio followed up with a post on Twitter saying that each ban was meticulously checked and that they won’t be allowing appeals.

“We just completed our first batch of banned users. Almost 900 players have been permanently banned from Temtem. Bans are final, we won't answer or review any ban appeal. We've made 100% sure that every banned user is either a cheater or has abused exploits intentionally.

The team spent all morning checking banned accounts and player accounts saying ‘they didn't do anything illegal’. We re-checked over 100 accounts. Every single one of them was a legit ban.”

Crema, however, decided to accept appeals a few hours later based on player feedback. “We've decided to review ban appeals, even though every single one of the ones we checked are legit,” tweeted the studio. “Like you said, having a "no appeal" policy is not good. So, you can contact us on support@cremagames.com. Put "Ban appeal" as the subject and include your ingame ID or username.”
