# Headlander - Parent Guide
Headlander is a retro-style side-scrolling action game with strong violence involving combat and destruction, though presented in a campy, comedic sci-fi style. It lacks profanity and sexual content but isn't designed for children due to its action-heavy gameplay and mature themes.
