Survive on rats, fight Biotic soldiers, and solve time travel puzzles to rescue all 45 survivors and save the human race.

Rating

Approximate rating: PG-13 / T for Teen. This game is much tamer than the TV show that inspired it. It includes dystopian sci-fi peril, mild arcade-style “pew-pew” combat, mutant enemies, and survival elements like eating rats, but no blood, gore, sex, nudity, gross-out bodily fluids, or explicit language.
