Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.03 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.06 | |
While generally low risk due to the absence of manipulative monetization and social features, the game's M rating indicates significant violence and strong language. The post-apocalyptic setting and themes of a dangerous pandemic could also contribute to a sense of fear or tension.
