Should only be played by those of appropriate age - and even then don’t spend too much time on it. It falls under the category of discernment and conscience. If your 14 yo is playing it every night until 1am (and yes I know of several) that’s a problem on many levels. If you’re an adult spending an hour at the weekend - probably not so much
 
Basically what halogirl said. It’s a matter for discernment.
 
it is just a game and in and of itself not sinful

Catholics and Christians can even play gambling games – without the gambling!

it’s only going to be a sin if the parents fail to teach their children to be moderate with their computer/video play time, and not become selfish over needing to play it all the time.
 
The only sin I’m seeing is in the parents’ part for not limiting their kids game time or letting them play things they are not old enough to handle.

I hate how, whenever a new game becomes popular, people are quick to condemn the game itself when most of the problems are caused by parents who don’t know how to say no to their kids.
 
I find it a bit disappointing that the author of the article never really answers his own question. He makes a big to-do about how the Church needs to be direct about naming sin when it appears and to engage such pop culture phenomenon—even if it makes people uncomfortable. And yet he ultimateley only ever points out sinful actions in a generic way that could apply to any video game or any other hobby or activity that a person practiced immoderately.

It becomes a sin if you do those annoying dance moves from that game.
 
I know nothing about the game, but I have heard one mother complaining that her son spends all his time playing a video game, yelling at the computer, yelling at other players whom he doesn’t know and cannot see, exploding in anger and not getting anything else useful accomplished.
 
Then she should be a parent and put limits on how much time he can spend on it.
 
Well that s an good question well it can bring us to sin when we aceept such thing what this game promotes

Example As you play the game and practice that what s in it and also it can bring person faith in big problem

basically said when you see something like lgbt included in game my best advice i can give you is to stay away from such game!

that s what i learned when i repented from my previus ways i really hope you will consider my idea if not ok

back then when i didnt realise what can be bad with the game i didnt have problem but now when i see it from diffrend site i hope you get i am talking about?
