Rating issues

Violence in the game is realistic, with several scenes showing characters being hit or shot with guns. In one scene, a human character being struck with the butt of a gun, which knocks him to the ground. This game also contains a scene in which a character takes their own life. Before this particular chapter begins, the player is given a content warning and is provided with the opportunity to completely skip this scene. Although the method of suicide is obvious to the player, no graphic content is shown here. There is a close up on the character’s face and then on their feet. The player does not see the process or aftermath of this death.

This game contains use of the word ‘fuck’ and its derivatives. Milder language is also used, including ‘asshole’ and ‘shit’.

Drug content is prevalent within the game, with characters shown taking ecstasy and smoking marijuana. In addition to this, there is a scene in which two characters inhale lighter fluid to get high. There are several scenes in the game in which the player is given the opportunity to drink alcohol, and many characters are depicted smoking.

Other issues

There is a scene of the game in which it is implied that a couple is having sexual intercourse, but no images are seen of this happening.

There is a scene in the game in which a character is executed via lethal injection. The player does not see the entire sequence, only the character strapped down, and the first button being pressed to administer the first injection.
