Parent Pro-Tip
Encourage your child to set clear play duration limits before starting a session, as the game's dynamic nature can make it feel like there's always more to do. Discuss the narrative and its themes to ensure they understand the game's context rather than feeling pressured to 'escape the demon' indefinitely.
