Oh! One of the comments did bring up an interesting thing though: Rape in Poison'd.
I'm emphatically not saying that Poison'd is a bad/anti-woman game for the way it treats rape, but it's for sure one of the reasons I haven't played the game. I don't know if there's a way I could enjoy that.
I think for me, as a feminist I'm really aware of narratives around rape and how many problematic interpretations and representations of it there are, and that makes me think it would be hard to include rape in a game without being distracted by that analysis.
I dunno though. I haven't played the game so I might be wrong.
