Looks like it's working just fine to me, hell I just played a game.

don't fix what don't need fixin'
Alas yonder woman, damn you tempt me with thy saucy bosom
thus methinks I shall bestow my codpiece in thee & make naughty love to my lady all night
Please haste hither & quench this torment fairest maiden

The whole point is to be as disgustingly offensive as possible. That's difficult when you've got one hand tied behind your back.

That only makes it more of a challenge! It's like trying to make gluten-free fried gluten! :P (Which exists, too)

This. I peeked in a couple of games last night, all the options looked like a middle school teacher's version of the game.

And that's why I think it was a bad choice as a game in actuality. Nice concept but a bit eh without the rough edges.

FT MEGACORPORTATION ▪ CALL ME TESCO ^_^
Tesco, the world's biggest corporation, has gained sovereignty.
They have their own army, police and control over millions of people.

In this 'Tescopolis' every aspect of life is controlled by Tesco from cradle to grave. Citizens are referred to as 'Customers' and identified by their Clubcard number - only senior Tesco employees are privileged enough to have names.

The economy is frightening, profit margins grow by the hour, no depression, no war or disaster can put a dent in Tesco's economic machine.

Education, media and the internet are tightly regulated by Tesco. People trust Tesco unconditionally, making them seemingly blind to the tyranny, corruption and brutality of the regime they must endure.

And PG-13 seems a bit soft considering it's upper limit is about equivalent to the upper end of a 15 in the UK.
