Many people are violent, and not all of them appear completely sane. Mental illness isn't discussed, however.

A cow is being slaughtered. The act itself isn't shown, only the dead cow and later the skull. You hear it though.
And much later you can see the paw of a monkey and its death scene.

The game's art style obscures it to some degree, but there is a LOT of gore in Obra Dinn. A lot of the game is observing the scenes of people's deaths and many of those deaths are very violent.

There is no special depiction about it but considering that the game only shows the crew far from home and "at work" so to speak, the family status of most of them is unknown.

The game takes place on a large ship, so most of the game you are surrounded by the ocean. One part of the game is on the open sea in smaller rowing boats.

The death scenes are usually introduced by hearing the sounds and talks that occur at the moment of death without seeing what happens. Depending on the cause of death and the player's imagination that can be very violent.

Well, the whole game takes place on a ship and some parts of it are rather narrow. There is also the death of a stowaway mentioned who hid in a barrell and died due to the cargo getting loose, but you only see the barrell from the outside and the description of the situation. The player themself is never truly stuck though.
