The game's primary focus on war and conquest, with violence as a core mechanic, could desensitize players to violence and promote a militaristic worldview. There is a risk of competitive toxicity and social comparison, as players strive to conquer more cities and upgrade generals. The game's narrative might lack diverse representation, potentially reinforcing stereotypes.

- ODDS:What Ludograph checks: whether paid random-reward drop rates are disclosed, as required in China, Japan and South Korea.: Estimated from review data. No paid random-reward mechanics found, so drop-rate disclosure requirements do not apply.
