App Review-4.3 spam

Our team has recently encountered a tricky issue: our game app was rejected during the App Store review process due to Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam. We firmly believe this to be a miscarriage of judgment, as our game app is entirely self-developed and does not copy or imitate any other app.

We've noted that the App Store review team may have considered our app to share similar binaries, metadata, and/or concepts with other apps on the App Store. However, we would like to emphasize that our team has invested a significant amount of time, effort, and creativity in developing this app.

Despite our best efforts, our app was still rejected. We are sincerely seeking help and advice from the Apple Developer Forums community. Have any other developers encountered a similar situation, and if so, how did you resolve it?

Searching the forum for "spam" will find many similar reports, with very few happy endings.

Thank you for your post and appeal. We're investigating and will contact you in App Store Connect to provide further assistance. If you continue to experience issues during review, please contact us.
