The game features some mild violence and a suspenseful atmosphere, which may be intense for younger players. While there are no direct monetization or social risks, the game's focus on a single player experience might not appeal to those seeking social interaction.

  • DSA:What Ludograph checks: whether the game's design gives minors the transparency the EU Digital Services Act expects: plain terms, honest defaults, and clear reporting routes.: Estimated from review data. No dark pattern or child-targeting concerns found.
  • GDPR-K:What Ludograph checks: whether age assurance and consent flows are designed for under-16s, in the spirit of GDPR Article 8.: Estimated from review data. No privacy or child-targeting concerns found.
  • 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.

These reflect Ludograph's assessment of the game's design practices against each framework's criteria, not a legal compliance determination.

Parents ask…

Is Relicta safe for kids?

Ludograph gives Relicta a rating of 68/100, recommended for ages 10 and up. It scores well on developmental benefits with manageable risks.

What age is Relicta appropriate for?

Ludograph's rubric recommends a minimum age of 10+ for Relicta, based on benefits, risks, and content review. That is more lenient than ESRB M: industry ratings reflect content intensity, while ours also weighs how the game is designed to be played.

How long should kids play Relicta?

Our session recommendation for Relicta is up to 120 minutes per day. It is derived from the game's own structure (natural stopping points, compulsion-loop design, monetization pressure, and social dynamics), not from a universal screen-time dose.

Session recommendations are design-based heuristics. Evidence linking specific daily durations to child outcomes is limited, and context matters as much as time; treat this as a starting point for household rules, not a clinical threshold.

What are the main risks of Relicta?

The game features some mild violence and a suspenseful atmosphere, which may be intense for younger players. While there are no direct monetization or social risks, the game's focus on a single player experience might not appeal to those seeking social interaction.
