Parent Verdict

A masterpiece for adults: alongside bloody fantasy combat and body horror (the mind flayer parasites), it features explicit romance scenes with full nudity and lets players make genuinely dark choices. Multiplayer is private co-op with friends rather than open lobbies. The M rating is well earned — 17-plus.
