Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.17 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.00 | |
The primary risk is the potential for extended play sessions due to the open-ended nature of the game and the constant availability of tasks. While there are natural stopping points, some children may struggle to disengage.
