The game contains mature themes including sexual content, implied violence, and references to substances, making it unsuitable for younger audiences. While not designed with manipulative engagement mechanics, the narrative's focus on debt and personal struggles could be emotionally intense for some players. The portrayal of gender roles, while featuring a strong female lead, may also lean into certain stereotypes.
