+**TODO**

+- Lock **target band** with stakeholders and (when relevant) compliance counsel—not a commitment to a specific board outcome until submission.
+- Write **content guidelines**: grim **concept** vs acceptable **depiction** (UI, cinematics, props, loot naming) before heavy production on sensitive beats.
+- Track **regional ratings and storefront policy** (PEGI, CERO, platform rules, etc.) when we approach release—do not block skill or quest design on that in early vision work.
