Oh, you mean the game?

Same.

I ..  umm.. I have seen that Apocalypse.

"1925 A girl is discovered to have strange eyes"
WTF?
I hate humor with Cthulhu references.
I also hate cute anime characters.

JK, I don't really hate anything, it's just... not interesting to me.
So do they all fuck and turn the Earth into a sphere of flesh or something?
What am I missing and why did I not get asked if I was over 18 to look at that game, if so?

I did like Cthulhu and that guys whole mythos, back... 30 years ago, when I was into D&D and Spelljammer and thought the Tyranids in Warhammer 40k were the coolest idea anyone had ever come up with in the universe. But then Starcraft came out and I burned myself out trying to explain how The Zerg were an example of what was REALLY going to happen to Earth and all the planets of the galaxy and the rest of the universe, if, evolution carried on on some planet where the lifeforms managed to leave their planet biologically and seed their moons, planets, asteroids and comets with life.

That's why I stopped teaching astronomy, I went fucking crazy, and couldn't be trusted educating children anymore because I was so concerned about life from Earth, billions of years in the future, meeting up with other life forms that had been evolving elsewhere for billions more than us. big_smile

That's a lie, that's not why I stopped teaching.
A religious person got me fired for mentioning evolution to her class of catholic kids.

It was a far worse, more mundane, less interesting reason.

Yes, her eyes are quite strange.

As for why it is not age restricted, the game is a weird blend of eldritch horror and My Little Pony cuteness.  Very niche audience, I imagine.  The main character lives in a world that is heavily populated by lovecraft monsters and unspeakable evils, but everyone is so damn chipper about it, that the emotional impact of horrible events is greatly softened.  It is a oddly family-friendly game, considering it involves cannibals, body horror, naked pagan rituals, sinister conspiracies, and a fleshy abomination poised to consume the world into itself through the power of love.

It is a relatively short walking simulator/visual novel type game.   Worth checking out if you find the weird concept interesting and enjoy light horror.   There are plenty of tentacles, extra mouths and eyes where eyes do not belong, but no graphic sexual imagery that I can recall.
