News from the Liaison: Jyhad and the "PG-13 Rating"

Jyhad and the "PG-13 Rating" A Clarification When we first began advertising Jyhad, we included the phrase "intended for mature players." We did this because we wanted to make sure that our customers knew what kind of game it was. Jyhad is not Magic. Jyhad is about vampires; in it, you play a vampire who preys on the other players and on lesser vampires, draining their blood to maintain your power. We began to get questions about what we meant by "mature players." How mature is "mature?" To clarify, we said that the game was probably not suitable for our younger-age Magic players, and that it was probably the rough equivalent of a PG-13. This was intended merely as a frame of reference to people asking for more information; it is not an "official" rating and was certainly not imposed on us by any third party. Our ultimate goal is to be sure that when people buy Jyhad, they realize what they're buying. The last thing we want is for a bunch of our ten-year-old Magic fans to bring home Jyhad and get their parents angry at us. So we're trying to make sure that the buying public has enough information to make an informed choice. Please direct any questions or comments to me.
