Rating issues

Players can partake in games of traditional poker and blackjack. If they are unsure on how to play the game, there are instructions that explain the rules. If the games are won, players receive ‘Mira’, a fictional in-game currency which can only be redeemed on in-game items.

Other issues

This game also contains depictions of non-realistic violence towards both humans and fantasy characters. Combat is mainly played in a turn-based format, where players can either make a physical attack or they can attack using magical powers, which cause buffs/debuffs. When attacking, the characters will leap and make a slash with a weapon, causing the enemy to recoil, whilst damage numbers appear on the screen. These attacks are almost always covered with brightly coloured effects and impact details that are non-realistic. There are some attacks that cause blood effects but, again, reactions remain inherently non-realistic.

There are scenes of a sexual nature throughout, with frequent sexual innuendo in dialogue. Additionally, some scenes take place in a strip club where women in lingerie pole dance and make suggestive poses.

This game contains the use of bad language, including ‘bitch’, ‘bastard’ and ‘shit’.

Alcohol such as lager and wine can be used during combat for buffs; however, the player character is not shown drinking the substance at all, nor do they act drunk. Players cannot, at any time, interact with real drugs or controlled substances in a realistic way.
