All and all this game is perfect for any age and most playing styles. It has cartoon-like graphics with a minimal amount of violence. Every conversation is appropriate for nearly any age. If the player chooses not to talk to anyone then the game progresses just as smoothly as if they were to interact with everyone. All choices do kind of change the outcome of what can happen in the game but the game itself is really just for enjoyment with no real goal.
