Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.27 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.00 | |
While free from monetization and social risks, the game's survival-based design and persistent progression can encourage extended play sessions. The fantasy violence against skeletons and mild horror themes are present, but there are no explicit social or financial pressures.

- 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.
