Very interesting, thanks Sandy.
Looks like someone forgot to specifically set the rating for this app. Down
the left-hand side, it says:
You must be at least 17 years old to download this game.
* Frequent/Intense Realistic Violence
* Frequent/Intense Cartoon or Fantasy Violence
* Frequent/Intense Alcohol, Tobacco, or Drug Use or References
* Frequent/Intense Profanity or Crude Humor
Wow, looks like just the thing for a museum setting. ;-)
