Rating issues

This game contains prominent use of alcohol. The player is able to collect ingredients to brew alcoholic drinks, such as sake, which can then be consumed. At the end of every day the player selects the food and drink they want to eat and drink, which is then shown. All the menu items, including the alcoholic drinks, grant the player statistical benefits.

Other issues

The game also contains frequent depictions of non-realistic looking violence towards human-like and fantasy characters. Bright lights and magical effects appear when characters are impacted, with numbers displaying the amount of damage that has been inflicted. There are a number of weapons and powers that can be used throughout the game. Enemy characters let out some small cries of pain and stagger backwards when attacked, although they never show any visible injuries or wounds. When an enemy character has been defeated, they fall to the floor and immediately vanish in a cloud of smoke. When the player character is defeated, she falls to the floor in slow motion as she shouts in pain. The screen then fades to a menu.
