For Vietnam Players. 

Supercell enforces strict region-locking and geoblocking policies due to local regulatory and tax issues in Vietnam, which completely restricts accounts originating from or located in the country from accessing store rewards, events, and purchases.

Key Restrictions for Vietnamese Players

• Strict Account Geoblocking: As noted by users discussing the issue on Reddit, Supercell tracks accounts using deep regional indicators like registration location, frequent login IP addresses, and DNS data.

• VPN Ineffectiveness: Standard VPNs generally do not work to bypass this restriction. If your Supercell ID was originally created in Vietnam or is tied to Vietnamese data, the system flags the account and leaves it excluded from store events, free daily gifts, and promotional rewards.

• System-Wide Feature Blocks: Vietnam is officially listed by Supercell as a restricted region for advanced security and transaction features, meaning automated Supercell Support Portal systems like Account Protection are entirely unavailable there.

Hay Day is heavily affected by these new classification rules because of its target age rating and the specific way its random reward loops connect to its premium economy.

While the game is structurally a casual farming simulator, the mechanics used in the Wheel of Fortune and the Valley fall squarely into legal definitions of "simulated gambling" and "paid random rewards".

1. Protection of the Game's Family-Friendly Rating

Hay Day’s primary audience includes children, and it aims to maintain a low classification rating (like PEGI 3 or PEGI 7 in Europe, and G in Australia). Under the updated regional guidelines:

• Video games that include "simulated gambling" or "paid random rewards" are automatically uprated to stricter tiers, such as M (Mature), R18+, or PEGI 16+.

• If Supercell kept the spinning wheels active, Hay Day would be classified as a game for teenagers or adults, forcing it out of the kids/family sections of local app stores and destroying a massive part of its player base.

2. The Connection to Real-World Money

The rules are specifically designed to stop minors from spending real money on mechanics that look and act like slot machines.

• In Hay Day, if you don't like your free daily spin on the Wheel of Fortune, or if you run out of fuel spins in the Valley, the game prompts you to spend Diamonds to spin again.

• Since Diamonds can be bought with real money, this turns a harmless-looking wheel into a paid "loot box" or random chance mechanic. Lawmakers classify this as a psychological gateway to gambling because players are risking a paid currency for a randomized, unknown outcome.

3. Broad Legal Frameworks vs. Specific Game Mechanics

Supercell did not intentionally build a gambling game, but regional lawmakers passed broad consumer-protection acts targeting all digital random rewards. Because Hay Day uses a literal "spin-the-wheel" layout to deliver rewards, it became an accidental target under the wide net cast by these new laws.

To protect the game from being banned, penalized, or age-restricted, Supercell chose to surgically remove the mechanics entirely for affected regions while they rebuild compliant alternatives.

Players in the European Union cannot use the Wheel of Fortune or access the Valley in Hay Day due to strict regional game classification guidelines regarding simulated gambling and random rewards.

Supercell enacted these changes to comply with updated consumer protection and gambling-like mechanics rules in these regions. Without removing these features, Hay Day would likely face a much stricter age rating or a potential ban for younger players.

The Specific Cause of the Issue

The core issue boils down to "spin-the-wheel" and random reward mechanics:
• Wheel of Fortune: This feature relies entirely on a game-of-chance spinner for prizes. Because it is a randomized reward system that can tie back to in-game currency, it triggers strict regulations.

• The Valley: While the Valley itself isn't a gambling game, it is directly powered by the Fuel Spin mechanic. Because players must spin a random wheel to generate fuel to move around the Valley, Supercell had to disable the entire feature until they could re-engineer how it works.

What is Changing & How Supercell is Compensating

Supercell rolled out an official Update for Players in Australia & The EU outlining the following regional changes:

• Wheel of Fortune: Permanently removed, along with related Farm Pass perks and season goals. To make up for this, players can claim an extra free Daily Gift in the Shop.

• The Valley: Temporarily disabled. All of your past Valley progress has been saved. In the meantime, you can earn each month's exclusive Valley Decoration via the free track of the Farm Pass.

• Traveling Access: If you physically travel outside of the EU or Australia, these features will automatically become available to play again while you are abroad.

Supercell has stated they are actively working on a workaround to safely bring the Valley back to European and Australian players without violating local classification rules

I was asked why Australians couldn’t play the Valley or The Wheel Of Fortune.

Supercell officially removed the Wheel of Fortune and disabled the Valley features in Hay Day for all players in Australia and the European Union.

Supercell altered the game due to regional game classification guidelines regarding random reward systems and simulated gambling. The mechanics in Hay Day triggered these restrictions because they use a "spin-the-wheel" random chance format.

Under Australia's classification rules, games containing these types of randomized, wheel-spinning reward loops risk being uprated to an M (Mature) or R18+ restriction, or heavily penalized if they don't block minors via expensive age-assurance tech.

To keep Hay Day rated for all ages and available on local app stores, Supercell decided to cut the features entirely for Australian players.

The specific structural changes implemented include:
• Wheel of Fortune Removed: The main daily Wheel of Fortune and all tasks or events tied to it are gone. Supercell added an extra free Daily Gift in the Shop to compensate.

• The Valley Disabled: Because the Valley relies on the randomized "Fuel Spin" wheel to let players move around, the entire game mode was turned off.

• Farm Pass Adjustments: Any perks giving free Wheel of Fortune spins have been removed, and season goals will no longer require wheel-based tasks.

• Exclusive Decorations: Players can still obtain the exclusive monthly Valley decorations via the free track of the Farm Pass.

Supercell noted that Valley progress is saved in case they roll out a non-randomized, compliant workaround later, but for now, the spin mechanics remain completely blocked for Australian accounts.
