It depends on your state of mind, IMHO, at the time you discovered or played the game (the original one). I played it first, years ago, at the time in my life when I desperately wanted to (at the least) strangle and the most eviscerate someone. The blood and gore helped a lot in my catharsis - or should I say, prophylaxis.

My son was 3 or 4 years old at that time, when I discovered him punching away at the monsters. Now that was scary! But I suppose it helped us get over a potentially violent and volatile situation... it helped balanced our responses to reality... and we turned out fine. Simplistic, maybe...but that is our experience with Dink.
