Fuel the Cursed Apple
The Cursed Apple Guide is free, ad-free, and built by one Deadlock-obsessed player. Your donation keeps the lights on and the guides coming.
Where Your Donation Goes
No investors. No paywalls. No ad spam. Just the unglamorous bills behind a free guide — and the features you keep asking for.
Hosting & Servers
Cloudflare hosting, the database, and the domain — the monthly bills that keep the site online 24/7.
New Features & Tools
Build planner upgrades, new calculators, daily games, and community features — funded directly by supporters.
Straight to the Site
Every dollar goes back into the guide. No middlemen — just more Deadlock help for the next new player.
Tip the Guide
Any amount helps. Seriously — even a couple of dollars covers real server time.
Donate with PayPalSecure payment via PayPal. Opens in a new tab — no site account needed.
Questions
How do I donate?
Hit the Donate with PayPal button above — it opens PayPal in a new tab where you can send any amount. You don't need a site account.
Where does the money go?
Hosting, the domain, the database, and building new features. Every dollar goes back into keeping the guide free and making it better.
Is my donation tax-deductible?
No — this isn't a charity, it's a personal tip to an independent creator. Think of it like tipping a street performer, not donating to a nonprofit.
I can't donate right now. How else can I help?
Plenty of ways: share the site with your stack, publish your builds for the community, vote in the fan art gallery, report errors you spot, or just tell us what guide you want next. Community contributions are worth as much as cash.
Thank You
Whether you donate or not — thank you for being here. Every visitor, every build shared, every typo reported makes this guide better. The Cursed Apple is a community project, and you're part of it.
