This game features moderate violence in the context of battles between different civilisations. Battles are shown from a top-down perspective, allowing players to zoom in and out of the action, with individual characters representing larger numbers of soldiers. When characters are hit, they let out a cry and fall to the ground, disappearing from view. There are no blood effects. There is use of mild bad language ('bloody').
