Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.00 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.11 | |
The game contains significant violence inherent to its war setting. While it lacks manipulative monetization or compulsion-loop mechanics, the patriotic framing of the narrative could be seen as a form of mild propaganda.
