I like how vague that rule is, a game about kidnapping people got taken down for "Promoting illegal activity"

However, a flurry of games that promote locking a servers full of people in a small closed off map and brutally murdering every individual player was mentioned and praised on the blog. Both had a police force, and the game that got taken down had easily obtainable weapons for every team. But murder craze though.

For a website that promotes the idea of horror games being put on-site, they draw the line a centimeter away from "yeah you can make horror games"

Just make sure nothing illegal happens in your game, that'd be immoral

"The "murder" games have a cartoony style that cannot psychologically influence or affect any children's demeanor, while the kidnapping game is excruciatingly painful to play."

I see your point, really I do, but I don't see a reason to defend a kidnapping game.

Cartoony.

Dude the kidnap game was pretty objectively bad. I don't know how you could be in excruciating pain when the entire game is just stabbing people. I don't think anyone plays to actually do anything, the knives were just neat.

I saw two areas that were capable of holding people in the entire game, and there was door controls on the inside of the cell for one. The other was the police station

The newspaper on the game thumbnail has really really really weird stories.

"Pretty neat"

Explain how virtually holding a blade against another person's neck can be pretty neat, for a child in third grade can teach him anything good.

Can someone explain to me what the game involved since I have never played it? Although, I can probably tell it's quite messed up based on the thumbnail papers.

In TMM and other murder mystery games, there isn't blood flying around and livers flopping onto the floor. I mean, I don't really support the murder craze as it's all kind of the same thing with a different name, but it is aimed at a younger audience.

And putting a kid friendly tone on stabbing your friends and strangers is cool.

Also, I don't know at what point you people became so enthralled in this game that the whole "IT'S LEGO" thing was lost on you, but I don't think any game on here could create a compelling horror environment.

Seriously, the engine itself is cartoony.

As long as it's kid-friendly, yes, it's "cool". There's little to no gore in that game. All you can do is throw knives around, or "stab" someone, watching them simply collapse. You can be a sheriff as well and wield a revolver, but it doesn't really teach one how to do anything bad.

The characters themselves are really funny looking and children love them, as you can clearly see.



As for the kidnapped game, I won't even bother explaining what harmful influence would watching another "robloxian" slit a robloxian's throat have over a child.

And while the game is aimed at all audiences, that cannot be permitted.

Question: On a scale of "none" to "capital punishment for treason in late-medieval Europe", how gore is there? That can make a HUGE difference in terms of these things. Murder games rank "none" while what other repliers are saying makes me think that closed game does not rank low.

Your character physically explodes when they die.

They blow up.

There's a horror genre for games, that was a thing they willing programmed. It's harmful that you can shank someone in one game, but because the other one looks like looney tunes it's cool.

You cannot have gore in a horror game on here, you cannot have anything that could mess with a childs mind whatsoever and you cannot have any themes of violence towards humans or other themes unless it's veiled thinly by cute faces. Because if the characters are cutesy then murdering them with a dagger is awesome.

So what's left for horror games then, thunder/lightning and slender level camera tricks?
No implication towards violence or harmful themes whatsoever.

Also Bloodfest has the most realistic blood script I've seen on site, put on humanoid monsters.

The game in question had red blocks that came out of the characters non-existent neck.

You can literally lob peoples arms and legs off in that Gladiator game, and you can slice their head off. Gladiators are slaves, traditionally.

So there's a game with heavy gore where you play as a slave and you brutally dismember other players. Your blood bar is connected to your health. You can bleed out overtime.
There are heavy themes of mortality in it, and it's cool with moderation.
