Rating issues

This game was given a PEGI 16 rating for very infrequent depictions of realistic violence towards humans. In one animated cut scene, a human-like robot is thrown into the air and impaled on a sword, which spears her to the wall. Though her reaction is not especially detailed, she reacts as a human would in real life, falling limp and dying.

Other issues

The majority of the violence in this game sits at a 12 level. Kor encounters numerous battles with a variety of human, animal and fantasy enemies, but their reactions are minimal and strikes feature bright flashes on impact. Their remains disappear once defeated. In the majority of cut scenes, violence is short and sharp, again with non-realistic reactions. For instance, characters are pushed to the floor, kicked or punched with no apparent or lasting injury.

Swearing and offensive language is frequent, but also at a mild level. Such words include, ‘ass’, ‘damn’, ‘hell’, ‘crap’, ‘pissed’, ‘bastard’ and variations of these words.
