Advice for consumers

The game was rated PEGI 16 for scenes of horror. Not appropriate for persons below 16 years of age.

Brief outline of the game

ABE VR is a virtual recreation of the original story about a misguided robot seeking the unconditional love of humans… at whatever cost.

Content specific issues

Although depth perception is enhanced by the use of virtual reality, the overall content, upon which this age rating has been determined, is sufficiently graphic that it does lead to an intense feeling of dread, threat, hopelessness, and fear which increasingly builds as the video continues. This is further qualified as the antagonist is a robot (ABE) that engages in mono-syllabic dialogue about life and seeking perfection and wishing to be loved and that you are broken and require fixing. Whilst wielding a scalpel and then a surgical saw ABE determines that he will correct that error. The demo ends with the robot approaching and sawing into the top of the character’s head, who screams loudly. This is not seen but the perimeter of the screen turns red with blood.
