While Keine’s Terakoya is largely free of manipulative design and monetization pressures, players should be aware of the minimal compulsion-loop design present through progression systems and escalating commitment to their school's development. These are inherent to the simulation genre but are not designed to be exploitative. The game has no social risks, content risks, or monetization risks.
