The game features a notable level of cartoonish violence. While designed for playful competition, some players might experience mild competitive toxicity in local multiplayer. However, it avoids manipulative design, monetization pressures, and stranger interaction risks.

- 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.
