Various reasons may cause the problem with freezes, and our developers are doing their best to optimize the game throughout updates. 

Please try the following steps, even if you have already tried some of them. Sometimes, they help improve the device and the game's performance.

1. Swipe away all your apps running in the multitasking bar as described here: https://support.apple.com/HT201330

2. Restart your device:
- Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
- Drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
- After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.

3. Make sure you updated the game to the latest version:
Go to App Store on your device  > tap on the blue account icon in the top right corner > scroll down and see if Gold and Goblins is in the list of available updates > tap the Update button. If your game is up-to-date, you will not see it in the list of available updates.

4. Make sure you have enough free space on your device:
Go to Settings of your device > General > About > Available.

For the game to perform smoothly, you should have at least 20% free space on your device. If your storage is almost full, it may cause issues.

5. Make sure your Internet connection is enabled and you have a stable signal. You may need to refresh your Internet connection. Here is how you can do it:

• Reboot your modem if you are using Wi-Fi.
• Restart your device.
• Ensure you are connected to the Internet and you have a stable signal once again.
