EGS is terrible. It has no reviews or even user ratings. You can only give reviews when EGS asks for it. EGS will ask only the questions which it deems necessary. And now blockchain games. The entire store seems to be designed to trick users into buying shitty games.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The Epic Games Store has a strict ban on games classified as “Adults Only” by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) — normally games with excessive nudity or violence.

“Some blockchain-based games are receiving Adults Only (AO) ratings from industry ratings bodies for their particular implementation of blockchain,” Epic Games spokesperson Brian Sharon says in a statement to The Verge.

“We’ve updated our Epic Games Store content policy to allow for games that are rated AO solely due to the usage of blockchain or NFT technology.” Policies prohibiting things like porn, gambling, and hateful content remain in place, Sharon says.

(Blockchain games cannot facilitate gambling, Epic says.)

Gods Unchained and Striker Manager 3, for example, were recently booted from Epic’s marketplace due to their 18 and over rating, and because of the new policy shift, both games have returned to the store.

Although Steam and Itch.io allow AO games in their marketplaces, users can filter them out.
