OUTRAGEOUS: Japanese Game RAPELAY
The goal of RapeLay is to stalk and rape the Kiryuu family (a mother and her two young daughters). The player can pick from several sexual positions, including oral sex, and has the option of gang rape. If one of the young girls gets pregnant, the player can choose to keep the child. RapeLay is made and sold in Japan, but is also found on Amazon Japan. Equality Now, a world-wide organization that aims to protect the human rights of women and girls, issued the Women's Action 33.1 Japan: Rape simulator games and the normalization of sexual violence. It calls for the withdrawal from sale in Japan all games the involve rape, stalking, or other forms of sexual violence and urges the Japanese government to take appropriate actions to deal with these issues. You can write to Illusion Software, the maker of the game- the address and a sample letter are available on the link below (scroll to the bottom of the page) http://equalitynow.org/ |
