Rating information

ViolenceFear

Consumer advice

This game has received a PEGI 7 because it features non-realistic violence in a child-friendly setting or context, violence that lacks any apparent harm or injury to fantasy or mythical beings and creatures, and pictures or sounds likely to be scary to young children.

Brief outline

3D platform adventure game in which a young girl must find all her missing hourglasses so she can travel back home in her spaceship.

Content-specific issues

The player’s character must fight various enemies using weapons such as an umbrella. The violence is non-realistic. When enemy characters are hit, they blink red, and when defeated they vanish in a puff. When the player’s character is hit, she loses a life. When she is defeated, she lets out a scream, lies down and then respawns. While much of the gameplay takes place in cheerful and colourful environments, some levels are a little darker and spookier, for example featuring ghostly creatures. There is a stealth level in which the player’s character must hide from a scary creature with red eyes. Nothing violent is shown and the presentation is fantastical and cartoonish. At one point, the player’s character discovers a dead body lying on the floor with a knife in its back and some blood on the floor beneath. The violence that led to this is not shown and the characters are depicted in the same cartoon style as the rest of the game.

Other issues

The player’s character must undertake various missions. One of these involves helping some spirit animals to be reabsorbed into a magical fire so the fire can be put out. While the spirit animals say they want the girl to help them ‘die’, this is not a literal depiction of suicide, given the fantastical content and the fantastical nature of the spirits, who are able to both create and withstand fire and who thank the girl for helping them.
