Rating issues

The majority of violence featured in this game is implied through still images and narration, making it suitable at a PEGI 7 level.

However, in some instances the violence crosses into a 12 rating with depictions of non-realistic violence towards human characters. In one example, two shadowy figures stand on a boat; one pulls out a gun and shoots the other, who disappears before a splash is seen in the water. In another scene, a man is seen to fall backwards slowly frame by frame into a knife.

Mildly offensive language, such as ‘damn’, ‘dammit’ and ‘hell’, is reasonably frequent.

Other issues

Some crime sequences fall under PEGI’s fear category, meaning they might be upsetting to young children.
