synopsis

Violence during gameplay is non-realistic looking. Impacts result in flashes of light and often exaggerated responses. When fantasy characters are killed, they disappear immediately. When the player's character dies, the screen turns black and the level restarts. Cutscenes feature more realistic looking violence towards fantasy creatures, although there is no blood or gore. Cutscenes also feature instances of implied violence towards the player's character, such as them being held down and having a weapon thrust towards their visor, although the scenes cut away before violence is shown.
