If items still fail to appear in game, please retry purchase but make sure of the following:
1) You have a strong network connection each time you purchase.

If the above doesn’t work, then please check your App Store Receipt sent to you via email. If the item you purchased is on the receipt but you cannot locate the download, please contact apple with your receipt.

The game is crashing on my iPhone/ iPad. How do I fix this?
There are a few reasons why your device may experience a crash during an app launch or randomly. We will list the top tips that proved to have helped most users:
First you want to make sure your device has the latest software installed. Download the latest version of iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes
=> If you already have iTunes, open it and then select Help => Check for updates and install any available updates.
=> Please make sure the date and time of your devices are current. This is important for the iTunes store as it may not allow you to download any apps if you don’t have the correct date and time.
=> If your device already has the latest software, try resetting your device.
Hold down the sleep/wake button at the top of the device for a few seconds until the screen displays the message ‘slide to power off.’ Power off the device by moving the slider. Hold down the sleep/wake button again until the device powers back on.
When the home screen is displayed, relaunch the game.
=> If you are still having trouble, you may need to terminate apps running in the background:
Double tap on the home button to see the apps running in the background.
=> You can terminate most apps on this screen to free up memory. Tap on the home button to return then try to launch the game again. Most players report this works for them.
=> You may also wish to clear off some apps on your device that you no longer use as how much storage memory you have available on your device may be contributing to this error.

1) From your home screen, tap the Settings app

If they know your passcode, they can enable in-app purchases even if you don’t want them to. Enter the passcode twice to set it.
6) Once the passcode is set, scroll down to the Allowed Content section. Slide the In-App Purchases slider to Off (in iOS 6) or to the left so that it’s white (iOS 7). This will prevent anyone who doesn’t know your passcode from making in-app purchases.
