Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: PG-13 (Violence, Profanity)
Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)
There are tentacles.... A couple lines to the effect of "...Our cosmic insignificance was a call to action, and knowledge is more important than we are..." hint at some amount of cosmic horror theme. The plot and a few themes could easily be reworked into a Cthulhu Icarus type RPG scenario with minimal "Lovecraftian" content.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
