Sex With Hitler game

Just spoke to my teen about who is playing with tonight online, he have a list but said “So and so is not on as they are playing Sex With Hitler.”
You can imagine the conversation that went on and we found a female game reviewer who had taken the game to task so we figured out the content. We’ve got the settings on so he can’t play it.
I have tried to report this game (the irony of the kids just having had Holocaust day as well) but it doesn’t allow you to and there doesn’t seem to be a regularly body like Ofcom for Steam Games.
Interested to know if any of you have gone across it or if anyone here can report it?

Sadly there will always be this sort of stuff accessilbe. Kids will find it through their mates / online even if it's blocked at home, makes it more exciting and daring.

Exactly what @missmollygreen said. Also OP maybe you should be speaking to your kids as steam does have an age verification for adult games and asks for your DOB. So basically they are choosing to bypass this.

So maybe you should be teaching them not to lie and bypass age verification gateways 🤔

It’s not that really - I suppose I come from a different place. I have noticed that there is a rise of anti semitism in my child’s high school - there’s been anti semitic memes shared amongst the year 7’s. I just found this horrifying - and maybe I am alone in feeling this way.
I guess I thought most people would want to remove a game that promotes a positive image of Hitler, more fool me.
We are a liberal family, not pearl clutchers but there’s always a point where you draw a line and I felt this was it.

My kids can’t play it as we have the controls on - their friend is playing it - which it drew it to my attention.

you need to read what I said about them not playing it.

What are you basing that on? It’s ok to have an opinion that glorifying Hitler isn’t a good thing.

I really hope they don’t delete it @Disabrie22 -

As you have been told before @Disabrie22 you need to report your own thread and ask them to delete. You’ll need to have a “pressing reason” and mumsnet are not obliged to delete it if they don’t consider your reason pressing enough.
