Other important terminology (there’s a whole Wiki Fandom for this app/game): It’s really quite disturbing, but not surprising. Trouble starts when kids head to YouTube or Google “Gacha Life videos” and, if there’s no filter, they are inundated with pornographic versions of Gacha video content. One of the game’s most significant risks has nothing to do with playing the game. I’ll admit that anything anime just weirds me out a little, but that’s just me (I know, it’s a “BOOMER” attitude). Some parents also are a little freaked out about the overall anime feel of the game. The only problems is that the community is toxic, and some of the content made from this game is disgusting. This app is OK for children in my opinion. This comment from Common Sense Media’s forum includes both sides of the scale in the same comment! Others are creeped out by it – there’s Gacha Life-themed porn videos using the characters, which is a good reason to be leery. Some believe the app is a wonderful outlet for creativity and safe from creepers. When you read the app reviews, there are a strong mix of opinions.

What do parents need to know about Gacha Life and Club? There’s even a mini age-verification, which is great. *Apple just doesn’t get it – Gacha Club requires users to be 10+ when opening the game for the first time.
