Risk exposure is extremely low across the board. There are no microtransactions, loot boxes, subscriptions, ads, notifications, or stranger-chat features. The only minor dopamine considerations are the natural loop of retrying after failure (near-miss/loss-aversion) and the open-ended nature of a scrolling platformer. These are inherent to the genre and not manipulative by design.
