Design risks

| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.00 | |
The game presents minimal risks, primarily involving mild cartoon violence against fictional enemies. There are no manipulative monetization schemes, social pressures, or stranger interactions. The Bechdel test is likely failed due to the narrative structure of a male hero rescuing a female character.
