Rule Of Rose Canceled in the U.K.

Following the outcry from European officials, Italian publisher 505 Games has decided not to release the controversial evil little girl game, Rule of Rose, in the U.K. The British Video Standards Council gave the game a 16+ game rating, causing politicians to call for a closer look at how video games are rated. In an interview with British publication MCV, the BVSC vehemently defended their decision and says the the government's claims are preposterous.

"I have no idea where the suggestion of in-game sadomasochism has come from, nor children being buried underground. These are things that have been completely made up," said VSC secretary general Laurie Hall.

Rule Of Rose Faces Opposition in Europe

It seems that Rule of Rose is becoming Europe's version of Bully. Last week, the Mayor of Rome called for the game's ban and now it has escalated into a Europe wide issue. The controversy has even managed to make it to the front page of the UK Times right next to a story about prisoner abuse. The article comes with the shocking headline "Violent children's game investigated by Europe" More »

Rule of Rose First Impressions

Last night I finally was able to grab Rule of Rose. I made Lady Grey tea with lots of cream and sugar, put my hair in pigtails and didn't leave the couch for the next two hours. I haven't gotten too far in, instead taking my time skulking and listening and psyching myself out. I have a lot more planned for tonight. More »

eToychest was kind enough to point this out to me and since I can let no Rule of Rose material slip through my grasp, I am logging it here with mad glee. This video documents a bit of movement and a boss fight, and talks about various dog functions and the overall mechanic of the game. More »

New Rule of Rose Gameplay Footage

There's some new Rule of Rose stuff over on MTV's game site, Overdrive (which runs like complete crap on OSX Firefox), and it's completely without context. Who's talking in the clip with the broom goblins? The subtitles don't seem to correspond with anything. The music is pretty, but extremely repetitive. A lot of it is inappropriate for the variety of scenes it's laid over. More »

What the Hell IS Rule of Rose, Anyway?

One thing I haven't really been clear on is what Rule of Rose is actually about. The plot synopses I've seen are all vague and full of innuendo. More »

Lord of the Flies in Petticoats: Punchline's "Rule of Rose"

Gamasutra just put up an interview with the developers of the new Lolita-Horror RPG, "Rule of Rose". Though the interviewer gamely tries to squeeze some nastiness out of Punchline CG and game director Shuji Ishikawa, and Sony assistant producer Yuya Takayama, he is mostly stymied and we get the same old, same old: More »
