Playing with friends

How do I start a game?

One person taps Host a game. Everyone else taps Join a game and picks the host's game from the list. When everyone's in the lobby, the host starts. Everyone needs Cabin Fever on their own iPhone or iPad, and you need to be close together: in the same room, carriage, car or row of seats.

I can't see my friend's game

• Make sure Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are both switched on. Wi-Fi doesn't need to be connected to a network, so it works in flight mode and with no signal.
• Cabin Fever needs Local Network permission: go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network and switch on Cabin Fever, on every device.
• Sit close together, and try closing and reopening the game on both devices.

How many people can play?

Anyone can host a quick game for two players over three rounds. With the Captain's Licence, a host can have up to 6 players and tournaments of any length. Joining a game is always free.

Captain's Licence

I bought it but it isn't showing

Open the game's Settings and tap Restore purchase. You'll need an internet connection for this; after that it works offline. Restoring also brings the licence to a new device signed in to the same Apple Account, and Family Sharing is on.

Refunds

Purchases are handled by Apple. To ask for a refund, visit reportaproblem.apple.com.

Nearby game alerts

With alerts on, your device can tell you when someone nearby is hosting a game, even when Cabin Fever is in the background. If alerts don't arrive, check that Bluetooth is on, that notifications for Cabin Fever are allowed in Settings > Notifications, and that you haven't swiped the game away in the app switcher (iOS won't wake an app that's been closed that way).

Progress and achievements

Your achievements, accessories and best distance are saved on your device and survive updates. Deleting the app deletes them. If you're signed in to Game Center, your achievements and best Solo infinite run are also kept there.

Real turbulence

When your device feels sustained shaking, like turbulence on a plane or a bumpy stretch of road, the game shakes too. A gentle bump won't trigger it.
