What Parents Need to Know

About Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom

Parents need to know that this is a violent action game with some role-playing elements. Characters dispatch enemies with swords, cannons, hammers, and a bevy of other weapons. None of these attacks looks too brutal, but you'll see blood spurt from slain foes. Parents do have the option to turn off the bloody effects. Some monsters look gory as well, including one group that is impaled by spears and another that shows exposed, bloody flesh. Players can also play online via co-op mode.
