  • 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 Star Trek: D-A-C safe for kids?

Ludograph gives Star Trek: D-A-C a rating of 55/100, recommended for ages 7 and up. It delivers genuine benefits but carries design risks that deserve a close look.

What age is Star Trek: D-A-C appropriate for?

Ludograph's rubric recommends a minimum age of 7+ for Star Trek: D-A-C, based on benefits, risks, and content review. That is stricter than ESRB E, because our assessment weighs behavioral design risks, not just content.

How long should kids play Star Trek: D-A-C?

Our session recommendation for Star Trek: D-A-C 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 Star Trek: D-A-C?

While generally low-risk, the competitive multiplayer modes may introduce mild social comparison and competitive toxicity. The game contains mild sci-fi violence typical of the Star Trek franchise.
