There is creepy imagery in some scenes of the game where background art has crooked teeth, but nothing truly outright damaged.

There is one line where the word "S*ssy" is used, although back in 1997 the general population did not know this as a slur, and RWS did not intent to use a slur, as they weren't aware it was one.

There is one line where the word "Ps*cho" is used as an insult by NPC's, although RWS did not have the intention of using a slur, as it wasn't widely known that it was one in 1997.
