Ages 16+, but every child is different
The themes of historical witch trials, moral ambiguity, and the high-stakes pressure of life-or-death decision-making are unsuitable for younger audiences. The game's focus on interrogation and potential execution necessitates a level of emotional maturity not typically expected in younger children.
