Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.00 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.06 | |
The game features mature and explicit content, including high levels of violence, sexual references (pornography), strong language, and substance references (drugs, booze). Its narrative promotes a chaotic and anti-establishment worldview, and while it lacks manipulative monetization or social risks, the content itself is highly unsuitable for younger audiences.
