**Platform, device and operation system**  
Android 9, One Plus 3, Oxygen 9.0.6

**What were you expecting to happen, and what actually happened**  
The game often does not return properly from extended sleep mode. Sometimes the screen is frozen; sometimes it is completely black.  
Expect game to be able to recover, or kick to main screen.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
_Is this a once-off issue or has it been a consistent issue? Does it only happen in specific circumstances?_  
Since at least .0.38. when I started playing the game.

**Steps to make it happen again**  
_Please detail the steps taken to trigger this bug. The more detailed the breakdown, the easier it is for us to test in-house._  
Have phone go in sleep mode for a prolonged period, say an hour.
