Unlock Code Basics
Each game that you download is "locked". With a locked game you can play the free trial, and play infinite rental sessions using WildCoins.
When you purchase a game, you will receive an unlock code (aka Serial Number). Once a game has been unlocked you can play the game without using WildCoins or watching advertisements.
You can unlock a game on up to 4 computers. If you receive an error message that the unlock code is invalid, that means the code is either invalid (e.g. typo), the unlock code has already been used 4 times, or there may be a firewall configuration that is blocking the unlock process.
